About PEG-8 Methicone
PEG-8 Methicone is a polyethylene glycol derivative of methicone containing an average of 8 moles of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 8 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. With the same base structure, changing this number may also change water dispersibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and to reduce tangling and roughness in hair for a smoother finish.[2]
