About PEG-7 Dimethicone

PEG-7 Dimethicone is a polyethylene glycol derivative of dimethicone with an average of 7 moles of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 7 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. For the same base structure, changes in this number may also affect how readily it mixes with water and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce tangling and roughness in hair and leave it smooth, and to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
