Notes:
Emulsifier, dough improver, crystallisation retarder, solubiliser, stabiliser, flavour dispersant, wetting agent, fruit or vegetable coating, defoamer for yeast/sugar Polysorbates are a class of emulsifiers used in some pharmaceuticals and food preparation. They are often used in cosmetics to solubilize essential oils into water-based products. Polysorbates are oily liquids derived from PEG-ylated sorbitan (a derivative of sorbitol) esterified with fatty acids. (Wikipedia)
