| Bioactivity | Sorbitan monooleate is a renewable polyol with unique molecular structures for the development and design of bio-based waterborne polyurethane (WPU) with versatility and excellent mechanical properties. Sorbitan monooleate can be used as an excipient, such as nonionic surfactants, emulsifiers. Pharmaceutical excipients, or pharmaceutical auxiliaries, refer to other chemical substances used in the pharmaceutical process other than pharmaceutical ingredients. Pharmaceutical excipients generally refer to inactive ingredients in pharmaceutical preparations, which can improve the stability, solubility and processability of pharmaceutical preparations. Pharmaceutical excipients also affect the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME) processes of co-administered drugs[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
