Polyethylene glycol lauryl ether

Description:
Polyethylene glycol lauryl ether, with the CAS number 86547-02-6, 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) chain and a hydrophobic lauryl (dodecyl) group, which imparts both emulsifying and solubilizing properties. It typically appears as a clear to slightly yellow liquid or solid, depending on its molecular weight and formulation. Polyethylene glycol lauryl ether is known for its mildness, making it suitable for use in personal care products, such as shampoos and lotions, where it helps to enhance texture and stability. Additionally, it exhibits good wetting and dispersing capabilities, which can improve the performance of formulations. Its low toxicity and biodegradability further contribute to its appeal in environmentally conscious products. Overall, polyethylene glycol lauryl ether serves as a versatile ingredient in various formulations, balancing efficacy with safety.
