About PEG-5 Stearamine

PEG-5 Stearamine can be described as a polyethylene glycol derivative of stearylamine. The number 5 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added; within the same basic structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formulation's viscosity and spreadability.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce static electricity that causes hair strands to lift or stick to one another, and to create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
