PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is a widely used non-ionic surfactant and solubilizer in daily chemical products. Derived from hydrogenated castor oil and ethoxylated with 40 moles of ethylene oxide, it serves as a versatile ingredient with excellent emulsifying and solubilizing properties. Its advantages include low irritation, good compatibility with other surfactants, and oxidative stability due to hydrogenation, making it suitable for sensitive skin formulations.
