About PPG-6-Sorbeth-500

PPG-6-Sorbeth-500 is a polyoxypropylene, polyoxyethylene ether of sorbitol.[1] The number 6 after PPG indicates the average number of linked propylene oxide units. Depending on this number and the type of fatty component attached, oil miscibility and application feel may vary. In cosmetics, it is used to help formulation ingredients bind together and maintain their form, reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and draw moisture to the formulation and skin surface to help maintain a moisturized feel.[2]
