Polysorbate 80 - Feed Ingredient
Polysorbate 80, also known as Tween 80, is a non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from polyethoxylated sorbitan and oleic acid. It is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and feed industries to stabilize mixtures of oil and water by reducing surface tension. In equine feed and supplement formulations, it functions as a processing aid rather than a nutritional ingredient.
In horse products, Polysorbate 80 is typically used to solubilize fat-soluble vitamins, essential oils, or other hydrophobic compounds in liquid formulations. It helps ensure uniform distribution of ingredients, particularly in emulsions, oral pastes, or liquid supplements. Its inclusion supports product stability, consistency, and effective ingredient delivery.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Polysorbate 80 as an ingredient.
