About PEG-6 Caprylate/Caprate

PEG-6 Caprylate/Caprate is a polyethylene glycol ester of a mixture of caprylic and capric acids with an average of 6 moles of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 6 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 create emulsion formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
