About PEG-20m

PEG-20M is a polymer of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 20 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same basic structure, changing this number may alter water miscibility and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to help formula ingredients bind together and maintain their form, prevent water-and-oil emulsions from separating easily, and adjust the formula's viscosity and flow.[2]
