Polysorbate 80

Polysorbate 80 is a nonionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from polyethoxylated sorbitan and oleic acid. It is used as an emulsifier in foods, particularly in ice cream. Adding this substance prevents milk proteins from completely coating the fat droplets. It is an excipient that is used to stabilize aqueous formulations of medications for parenteral administration, and used as an emulsifier in the manufacture of the popular anti-arrhythmic amiodarone. It is also used as an excipient in some European and Canadian influenza vaccines. It is used as a test to identify the phenotype of a strain or isolate.

Glycerol Distearate

Glycerol distearate is a mixture of diacylglycerols, mainly distearoylglycerol, together with variable quantities of mono- and triacylglycerols. It contains 8.0 per cent to 22.0 per cent of monoacylglycerols, 40.0 per cent to 60.0 per cent of diacylglycerols and 25.0 per cent to 35.0 per cent of triacylglycerols, obtained by partial glycerolysis of vegetable oils containing triacylglycerols of palmitic or stearic acid or by esterification of glycerol with stearic acid 50 (type I), stearic acid 70 (type II) or stearic acid 95 (type III) . The fatty acids may be of vegetable or animal origin.

N-Methyl-Pyrrolidone Technical 99.8%

NMP is used to recover certain hydrocarbons generated in the processing of petrochemicals, such as the recovery of 1,3-butadiene and acetylene. It is used to absorb hydrogen sulfide from sour gas and hydrodesulfurization facilities. Due to its good solvency properties NMP is used to dissolve a wide range of polymers. It is also used as a solvent for surface treatment of textiles, resins, and metal coated plastics or as a paint stripper. It is utilized as a solvent in the commercial preparation of polyphenylene sulfide. In the pharmaceutical industry, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone is used in the formulation for drugs by both oral and transdermal delivery routes. It is also used heavily in lithium ion battery fabrication, as a solvent for electrode preparation, though there is much effort to replace it with solvents of less environmental concern, like water.
