About Dimethicone PEG-8 Succinate

Dimethicone PEG-8 Succinate is a partial ester of PEG-8 Dimethicone and Succinic Acid.[1] The number 8 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. With the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce tangling and rough texture in hair for smoother grooming and to smooth and soften the skin surface.[2]
