In the Poloxamer number 251, the first two digits indicate an approximate molecular weight of 2500 for the oil-attracting middle section, while the last digit indicates that the water-attracting portion accounts for about 10%; the oil-attracting middle section has a relatively greater influence. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities rinse away with water and to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[1]
