About Disodium PEG-8 Glyceryl Caprylate/Caprate
Disodium PEG-8 Glyceryl Caprylate/Caprate is the disodium salt of a polyethylene glycol derivative of glyceryl caprylate/caprate.[1] The number 8 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same base structure, changes in this number may affect water miscibility and the viscosity and spreadability of the formulation. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and to lower surface tension so that raw materials wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
