Emulsifier

Description
Chemical substance used to ensure that a thick mixture of oil and water will maintain an even distribution of ingredients that will not separate. Without emulsifiers, the liquid will separate into two parts or phases. Emulsifiers are used to prepare emulsions, such as fabric softeners, creams, lotions and many food products. Emulsifiers have both lipophilic and hydrophilic components. Also referred to as emulsifying agent. See closely related: surfactant.
