About Methoxy PEG-450 Maleimide

Methoxy PEG-450 Maleimide is an individual ingredient used in cosmetics.[1] The number 450 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added; for the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce hair tangling and roughness for smoother conditioning, and to lower surface tension so raw materials can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[1]
