PEG-2M

PEG-2M is a very high molecular weight polyethylene glycol polymer (~2,000,000 daltons) used as a film-former and rheology modifier in cosmetics. At the ultra-high molecular weight of 2M, it forms a lightweight, non-tacky film rather than acting as a humectant like lower molecular weight PEGs. Used at trace concentrations in ampoule formulas to contribute a smooth, substantive texture.

Also known as: polyethylene glycol 2000000
