About PPG-5 C9-15 Alketh-6
PPG-5 C9-15 Alketh-6 is a polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene ether of a synthetic alcohol mixture.[1] The number 5 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units. The degree to which it mixes with oils and its application feel vary depending on this number and the type of fatty component attached to it. In cosmetics, it is used to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly, and to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are uniformly mixed.[2]
