About PEG-30 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

PEG-30 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is a polyethylene glycol derivative of hydrogenated castor oil containing an average of 30 moles of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 30 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. With the same base structure, changing this number can alter water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly mixed and to reduce surface tension so ingredients wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
