About Trideceth-8

Trideceth-8 is the polyethylene glycol ether of tridecyl alcohol.[1] The number 8 at the end of the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. It changes the balance between the water-loving and oil-loving parts, resulting in differences in cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and skin feel. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
