About PPG-5 Lanolin Alcohol Ether

PPG-5 Lanolin Alcohol Ether is the polypropylene glycol ether of lanolin alcohol with an average propoxylation value of 5.[1] The number 5 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; depending on this number and the type of fatty component attached, its oil-mixing ability and application feel vary. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce tangling and rough feel in hair for smoother conditioning and to leave the skin surface soft and smooth.[2]
