Science

Mechanism of Action

Functioning as a polyol and nonionic surfactant, PEG/PPG-5/35 COPOLYMER effectively reduces interfacial tension, enabling the homogenous dispersion of immiscible phases within a product. This action is crucial for emulsion stability and can facilitate the removal of surface impurities when utilized in cleansing formulations, while also improving product feel and distribution upon application.
