About Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride PEG-4 Esters
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride PEG-4 Esters are a transesterified mixture of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride and PEG-4.[1] The number 4 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. With the same base structure, a change in this number may affect water miscibility and the formulation’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, they are used to reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel; to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed; and to leave the skin’s surface feeling soft and smooth.[2] They are also used to lower surface tension so that ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
