CAS 6540-99-4
:Polyethylene glycol lauryl ether
Description:
Polyethylene glycol lauryl ether, with the CAS number 6540-99-4, is a non-ionic surfactant commonly used in various applications, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial formulations. This compound is characterized by its hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) backbone, which enhances its solubility in water, and a hydrophobic lauryl (dodecyl) chain, which contributes to its surfactant properties. The combination of these two components allows polyethylene glycol lauryl ether to effectively reduce surface tension, making it useful as an emulsifier, wetting agent, and solubilizer. It is generally considered to be mild and non-irritating, which makes it suitable for use in personal care products. Additionally, it exhibits good compatibility with a wide range of other ingredients, including anionic, cationic, and amphoteric surfactants. Its applications extend to formulations such as creams, lotions, shampoos, and other cleansing products, where it helps to stabilize emulsions and improve texture. Overall, polyethylene glycol lauryl ether is valued for its multifunctional properties and versatility in various formulations.
