About PEG-5 Glyceryl Triisostearate

PEG-5 Glyceryl Triisostearate is a triester of the polyethylene glycol ether of glycerin and isostearic acid.[1] The number 5 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 reduce friction and add a smooth feel to skin or hair, and to create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
