About Magnesium PEG-3 Cocamide Sulfate

Magnesium PEG-3 Cocamide Sulfate is the magnesium salt of a sulfated ester mixture of PEG-3 Cocamide.[1] The number 3 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the viscosity and spreadability of the formula. In cosmetics, it is used to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
