About Polyglyceryl-4 Caprylate/Caprate

Polyglyceryl-4 Caprylate/Caprate is a monoester of Polyglycerin-4 and a mixture of caprylic acid and capric acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to help ingredients that do not dissolve well in water disperse more evenly in the water phase and to lower surface tension so raw materials can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
