About Pentadoxynol-200

Pentadoxynol-200 is an ethoxylated alkylphenol.[1] The moisturization and spreadability of finished products formulated with Pentadoxynol-200 may vary depending on the use concentration and the combination of moisturizing and emollient ingredients used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and to lower surface tension so that raw materials can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
