About

A propoxylated hydrogenated tallow amine with similar animal-origin and nitrosamine monitoring considerations as its ethoxylated counterpart.

PPG-2 Hydrogenated Tallowamine is the propoxylated (2 PO) derivative of hydrogenated tallow amine, functioning as a surfactant and emulsifying agent. Like its ethoxylated counterpart, it requires nitrosamine monitoring per EU cosmetic GMP. The hydrogenated form has improved odor stability compared to non-hydrogenated tallow amines.

Skin benefits

  • Surfactant properties
  • Emulsifying agent

Known concerns

  • Animal-derived origin (hydrogenated tallow) - relevant for vegan consumers
  • Potential nitrosamine formation (monitored per GMP)
