About PPG-12 Dimethicone

PPG-12 Dimethicone is a polypropylene glycol derivative of dimethicone containing an average of 12 moles of propylene oxide.[1] The number 12 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units. Together with the type of fatty component attached, this number affects oil miscibility and application feel. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce hair tangling and rough feel for soft manageability, and to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
