About PEG-12 Diisostearate

PEG-12 Diisostearate is a polyethylene glycol diester of isostearic acid.[1] The number 12 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added; within the same base structure, changes in this number may affect water dispersibility and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to create an emulsion in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
