About PEG-23m
PEG-23m is a polymer of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 23 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. With the same base structure, changing this number may also change water compatibility and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to help formula ingredients bind together and maintain their form, to prevent emulsions of water and oil from separating easily, and to adjust a formula's viscosity and flow.[2]
