About Lauryl Dimethicone PEG-10 Phosphate

Lauryl Dimethicone PEG-10 Phosphate is a partial ester of phosphoric acid and an ethoxylated derivative of lauryl dimethicone with an average of 10 moles of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 10 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; for the same base structure, changing this number may affect water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction between the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and lower surface tension so raw materials can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[3] In Europe, diethylene glycol remaining as an impurity in the raw material must be controlled at no more than 0.1%.[2]
