About PEG-6 Laurate
PEG-6 Laurate is the polyethylene glycol ester of lauric acid.[1] The number 6 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same base structure, changing this number may also change the degree to which it mixes with water and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
