Span 80 croda is a nonionic surfactant with strong emulsifying, dispersing and lubricating effects and can be mixed with various surfactants such as Tween-80. Span 80 emulsifier can be utilized in the food industry as well as in cosmetics, industrial, and pharmaceutical industries.
 

According to the different fatty acids reacted, Span can be divided into several varieties such as Span 20, Span 40, Span 60, Span 65, Span 80, and so on.
