About PEG-4 Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate
PEG-4 Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate is the polyethylene glycol ether of a glycerin dimer esterified with stearic acid and contains an average of 4 moles of ethylene oxide. The number 4 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. For the same base structure, changing this number may affect water miscibility and the formulation’s viscosity and spreadability.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
