About Bis-Isobutyl PEG/PPG-10/7/Dimethicone Copolymer

Bis-Isobutyl PEG/PPG-10/7/Dimethicone Copolymer is a random copolymer of dimethicone, polyethylene glycol, and polypropylene glycol containing an average of 10 moles of ethylene oxide and 7 moles of propylene oxide.[1] The number 10 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; depending on this number and the type of fatty component attached to it, its oil compatibility and application feel vary. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and to lower surface tension so ingredients wet, blend, and spread evenly.[3] In Europe, diethylene glycol remaining as an impurity in the raw material must be controlled at 0.1% or less.[2]
