About PEG/PPG-100/70 Tocopheryl Ether

PEG/PPG-100/70 Tocopheryl Ether is a raw material obtained by reacting 100 moles of ethylene oxide with tocopherol and 70 moles of propylene oxide.[1] The number 100 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units, and this number and the type of fatty component attached to it affect its miscibility with oils and application feel. In cosmetics, it is used to help powder ingredients flow evenly without forming lumps, slow the oxidation of formulation ingredients caused by reactions with oxygen, and help formulation ingredients bind together to maintain their form.[2] It is also used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed, prevent such emulsions from separating easily, and add flexibility so films or polymer layers do not become excessively hard.[2] It is used to leave the skin surface soft and smooth, lower surface tension so raw materials wet, mix, and spread evenly, and reduce changes to the product and formulation ingredients caused by ultraviolet radiation.[2]
