About PEG-10 Methyl Ether Dimethicone

PEG-10 Methyl Ether Dimethicone is the methyl ether of a dimethicone derivative consisting of an average of 10 moles of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 10 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. With 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 create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly blended, to reduce hair tangling and a rough feel for smoother hair, and to leave the skin’s surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
