About PEG-5 Hydrogenated Castor Oil Triisostearate
PEG-5 Hydrogenated Castor Oil Triisostearate is a triester of hydrogenated castor oil with an average of 5 moles of ethylene oxide and isostearic acid.[1] The number 5 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. Within the same base structure, changing this number may affect 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 control the formula’s viscosity and flow.[2]
