About PPG-1-Deceth-4
PPG-1-Deceth-4 is the polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene ether of decyl alcohol, where x averages 1 and y averages 4.[1] The number 1 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; this number and the type of fatty component attached to it affect its degree of mixing with oils and its application feel. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities wash away with water and to create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
