About PEG-7 Methyl Ether Dimethicone
PEG-7 Methyl Ether Dimethicone is the methyl ether of a dimethicone derivative containing an average of 7 moles of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 7 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added; within the same base structure, changing this number can affect water miscibility and the formulation’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed, reduce tangling and roughness for smoother, more manageable hair, and leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
