About PPG-3-Deceth-2 Carboxylic Acid
PPG-3 Deceth-2 Carboxylic Acid is the carboxylic acid of propoxylated and ethoxylated decyl alcohol.[1] The number 3 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units. Depending on this number and the type of fatty component attached to it, its ability to mix with oils and its application feel vary. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed and to lower surface tension so ingredients wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
