Alfa Chemistry - Vaccine Emulsifiers

Vaccine Emulsifiers: Emulsifiers, also known as surfactants, can reduce the surface tension of the liquid, thereby increasing the diffusion and wetting properties. An emulsifier consists of a polar (or hydrophilic) head and a hydrophobic tail which can be dissolved in both polar and non-polar solvents. These emulsifiers have physicochemical properties of self-aggregation, solubilization or emulsification. Typically, emulsifiers help particles remain suspended in liquid, prevent settling and clumping of elements in the form of vaccine liquids, by lowering the surface tension of the liquid.
