PEG-90 is a polymer of ethylene oxide.
An universal most highly effective conditioning agent as well as increase foam quality and gives lathery foam texture.
At very low level PEG-90 gives superiour conditioning and smoothning effect for long time.
PEG-90 is a water soluble with a relatively low molecular weight.
In a cream, lotion, gel or stick PEG-90 will go a long way toward making your products glide on smoothly.
PEG-90 can be used in shaving products, body washes, liquid hand soaps, bar soaps and styling gels.
PEG-90 is a solid in fine powder form.
PEG-90 is a polymer of ethylene oxide.
In cosmetics, PEG-90 is used as an emulsion stabilizer to increase the viscosity of the product.
PEG-90 is mainly added to personal hygiene and skin care products.
PEG-90 can be present in deodorants, detergents, shampoos or make-up.
PEGs (polyethylene glycols) are generally substances that are prepared by polymerizing ethylene oxide and are available in a wide range of molecular weights.
During the reaction, the by-product 1,4-dioxane is formed.
These two substances (ethylene oxide, 1,4-dioxane), which are known to have carcinogenic effects, are common contaminants of polyethylene glycols.
If PEGs are used as a cosmetic raw material, the concentration of these contaminants must be reduced to the "permissible level".
PEGs are not accepted in certified natural and BIO cosmetics.
