Peg-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
Appearance: White paste
Application: Can be used in perfume, serum, essential oil, moisturising spray, shampoo, foundation/bb cream, sunscreen.
As a versatile coupling agent, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil effectively bridges oil and water phases, enabling the incorporation of fragrance oils, essential oils, and other lipophilic ingredients into aqueous systems. Its balanced HLB value makes it particularly valuable in transparent cleansers, micellar waters, and leave-on products, where it helps maintain clarity while improving sensory characteristics.
