About PEG-2 Distearate
PEG-2 Distearate is the polyethylene glycol diester of stearic acid.[1] The number 2 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. With the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formulation's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
