About PPG-9-Steareth-3

PPG-9-Steareth-3 is a polyoxypropylene, polyoxyethylene ether of stearyl alcohol.[1] The number 3 at the end of the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. It changes the balance between the water-attracting and fatty-component-attracting parts, resulting in differences in cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and sensory 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 feeling soft and smooth.[2]
