PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil Description
PEG-60 hydrogenated castor oil is primarily used as a cleansing agent in personal care products due to its versatility and compatibility with every type of surfactant.
It also provides emulsifying and solubilizing functionality to improve the formulary esthetics and performance for skin care and hair care products. (Essentially this means it helps the oil and water ingredients mix, as well as allowing other ingredients to dissolve cohesively for a pleasing result.)
As an individual raw material, PEG-60 hydrogenated castor oil has been described as having a white paste or lard-like appearance.
PEG-60 hydrogenated castor oil has proven to be a safe and effective ingredient; identified concentrations in cosmetic use range from 0.00004% to 18% (according to a 2015 report). Safety assessments have shown that even higher concentrations may be used on skin without negative results.
