About PPG-5 Lanolin Wax Glyceride
PPG-5 Lanolin Wax Glyceride is a polypropylene glycol ether of the condensation product of glycerin and lanolin wax, propoxylated with an average of 5 moles.[1] The number 5 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units; this number and the type of fatty component attached to it affect oil compatibility and application feel. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and to leave the skin’s surface soft and smooth.[2]
