About PPG-4 C12-14 Sec-Pareth-5
PPG-4 C12-14 Sec-Pareth-5 is the polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene ether of a synthetic mixture of secondary C12-14 alcohols.[1] The number 5 at the end of the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units, which changes the balance between water-loving and fat-loving portions and leads to differences in cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and feel. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly mixed and to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
