About PEG-3 Glyceryl Cocoate

PEG-3 Glyceryl Cocoate is the polyethylene glycol ether of glyceryl cocoate. It can be described as a polyethylene glycol derivative of fatty acids derived from coconut oil; the number 3 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units, and within the same base structure, changing this number may alter water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
