About PPG-1-Ceteth-5
PPG-1-Ceteth-5 is the polyoxypropylene, polyoxyethylene ether of cetyl alcohol.[1] The number 1 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units. Along with the type of fatty component attached, this affects how well it mixes with oils and how it feels when applied. In cosmetics, it is used to help leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth and to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
