About PPG-3-PEG-6 Oleyl Ether
PPG-3-PEG-6 Oleyl Ether is a polyoxypropylene and polyoxyethylene derivative of oleyl alcohol.[1] The number 6 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. For the same base structure, changes in this number may also affect how readily it mixes with water and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. 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]
