Abstract

A composition for mixing oil and water to form a solution includes a non-ionic ethoxylated sorbitan ester. The invention extends to a composition for mixing oil and water to form a solution which includes an oil-soluble grade of alcohol ethoxylate having a hydroxyl number greater than 160, a melting point below -15 °C, and a hydrophile-lipophile balance value less than 9, a diethanolamide of at least one higher fatty acid, and a polyethylene glycol ester of a higher fatty acid.
