PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate
Description
PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate is a multifunctional, mild, water-soluble emollient derived from natural coconut fatty acids and glycerin. It acts as a skin-conditioning agent, solubilizer, and co-emulsifier, making it highly versatile in personal care and cosmetic formulations.
It is valued for its ability to provide a silky, non-greasy feel while imparting light moisturization and improving spreadability. PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate also helps solubilize essential oils, fragrance oils, and lipophilic ingredients into water-based systems, making it especially useful in body washes, facial cleansers, micellar waters, shampoos, and bath oils.
