1,4-Sorbitan is a sorbitol anhydration product. 1,4-Sorbitan is a precursor to environmentally benign surfactants. It is a component of Sorbitol-Sorbitan mixtures used as soft gel plasticizers. They enhance the soft gelatin capsule finish gloss for a premium appearance, help to prevent leakage, provide consistent pharmaceutical quality, and extend shelf life by maintaining a proper moisture balance within the capsule shell.
