About PEG-5 Tall Oil Sterol

PEG-5 Tall Oil Sterol is the polyethylene glycol ether of tall oil sterol with an average of 5 moles of ethylene oxide added.[1] The number 5 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. With the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formulation’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce static that causes hair strands to lift or stick together.[2]
