About PEG/PPG-28/21 Acetate Dimethicone

PEG/PPG-28/21 Acetate Dimethicone is a silicone polymer.[1] The number 28 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; this number and the type of fatty component attached to it affect how well it mixes with oils and the application feel. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce tangling and roughness, leaving hair smooth and manageable; to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth; and to lower surface tension so raw materials wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
