About PPG-6 Caprylyl Ether

PPG-6 Caprylyl Ether is an ether in which two carbon groups are linked by oxygen.[1] The number 6 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units. Together with the type of fatty component attached, this affects its miscibility with oils and the feel during application. In cosmetics, it is used to help reduce tangling and roughness in hair for smoother manageability, smooth and soften the skin’s surface, and dissolve other ingredients to create a uniform formulation.[1]
