About PEG/PPG-22/22 Butyl Ether Dimethicone

PEG/PPG-22/22 Butyl Ether Dimethicone is the butyl ether of a dimethicone derivative composed of an average of 22 moles of ethylene oxide and 22 moles of propylene oxide.[1] The number 22 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units. The degree to which it mixes with oils and the application feel vary depending on this number and the type of fatty component attached to it. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed, reduce hair tangling and rough feel for a smoother finish, and leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
