USE OF ETHOXYLIC FATTY ACID ESTERS AS SELF-EMULSIFYING COMPONENTS, PARTICULARLY USEFUL FOR THE PREPARATION OF PHYTOSANITARY TREATMENT PRODUCTS OR VETERINARY OR HUMAN MEDICINAL PRODUCTS

摘要

The present invention relates to be use on ethoxylated fatty acid esters as self-emulsifiable compounds particularly useful for the preparation of phytosanitary treatment products or as drugs for veterinary or human use. According to the invention, said fatty acid esters comprises a total number of ethylen oxyde molecules such that the value HLB (hydrophilic-lipophilic balance) of said compounds is comprised between about 4 and about 10, preferably between about 4 and about 9. Said ethoxylated fatty acid esters form in an original way self-emulsifiable components without requireing any other surfactant, and they are biodegradable and capable of dissolving active principles which are little or non water-soluble.
