About

A PEG-32 polymer end-capped with epoxidized rapeseedate, functioning as an emulsifier with moderate safety concerns around PEG chain length and sensitization potential.

Bis-(Methyl Epoxidized Rapeseedate) PEG-32 is a PEG-32 polymer capped with methyl epoxidized rapeseedate. The epoxidized rapeseedate moiety introduces potential sensitization concerns, while PEG-32 is a moderate-length polyethylene glycol chain. The PubChem reference score of 55 reflects these combined concerns. EU CosIng does not specifically restrict it, but it falls under general PEG limitation guidance for cosmetic use.
