About Dimethicone/PPG-20 Crosspolymer

Dimethicone/PPG-20 crosspolymer is the crosslinked polymer of hydrogen dimethicone crosslinked with bis-allyl PPG-20.[1] The number 20 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; this number and the type of fatty component attached to it affect how well it mixes with oil and the application feel. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and to adjust the viscosity and flow of formulas.[2]
