About PEG-20 Glyceryl Tristearate

PEG-20 Glyceryl Tristearate is the polyethylene glycol triester of stearic acid and glycerin.[1] The number 20 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 reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and to create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
