About PPG-1-Ceteth-1
PPG-1-Ceteth-1 is a polyoxypropylene, polyoxyethylene ether of cetyl alcohol, with an average of 1 propylene oxide repeating unit.[1] It has an average of 1 ethylene oxide repeating unit. The number 1 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; together with the type of fatty component attached, this affects how well it mixes with oils and its application feel. In cosmetics, it is used to leave the skin’s surface feeling soft and smooth, and to reduce surface tension so that ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
