About Propylene Carbonate

Propylene Carbonate is an ingredient in the form of a salt in which an acid and a base are paired.[1] Its solubility and charge state vary depending on the components forming the salt and the formulation's acidity, which also affects how it interacts with other raw materials. In cosmetics, it is used to dissolve other raw materials and create a uniform formulation, and to adjust the viscosity and flow of the formulation.[2]
