About PPG-5 Butyl Ether
PPG-5 Butyl Ether is the polypropylene glycol ether of butyl alcohol.[1] The number 5 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; together with the type of fatty component attached, this affects how well it mixes with oils and how it feels when applied. In cosmetics, it is used to smooth hair by reducing tangling and rough feel and to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
