About PEG-800/Polyvinyl Alcohol Copolymer
PEG-800/Polyvinyl Alcohol Copolymer is a copolymer of PEG-800 and vinyl alcohol monomers.[1] The number 800 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same basic structure, changing this number can also change water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to form a thin film on the skin, hair, and nail surfaces after application, and to hold the desired hair shape in place.[2]
