About Sodium C12-15 Pareth-6 Carboxylate
Sodium C12-15 Pareth-6 Carboxylate is the sodium salt of an organic acid.[1] R is a C12-15 alkyl group. The number 6 at the end of the name refers to the average number of ethylene oxide units added, which changes the balance between water-loving and oil-loving parts, affecting cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and sensory feel. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities rinse away with water, create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
