About Disodium PEG-12 Dimethicone Sulfosuccinate

Disodium PEG-12 Dimethicone Sulfosuccinate is the disodium salt of the monoester obtained from PEG-12 Dimethicone and sulfosuccinic acid.[1] The number 12 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. With the same base structure, changing this number can affect water miscibility and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities wash away with water, help ingredients that do not dissolve well in water disperse more evenly in the aqueous phase, and lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
