About PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone is a siloxane polymer.[1] The number 9 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed and to leave the skin surface soft and smooth.[2]
