They are obtained through the polymerization of ethylene oxide.

The number following the PEG prefix (as in the case of PEG-120) indicates the average molecular weight of the polymer.
Methylglucose dioleate is a diester of Methyl Glucose and oleic acid.

Methylglucose dioleate is derived from Methyl Glucose, which is obtained from the reaction of glucose with methanol, and oleic acid, which is a natural fatty acid found in various vegetable oils.

WHAT IS METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE USED FOR?
Methylglucose dioleate is used as a surfactant and emulsifier in many cosmetic products.
Methylglucose dioleate provides stability to the product and prevents the oil and water-based components of the product from separating out.

Methylglucose dioleate is an extremely effective, non-ionic, liquid thickener that can be used in numerous surfactant and emulsion systems.
Methylglucose dioleate is typically used at 0.5-3%, depending on the application.

*Skin care:
Methylglucose dioleate creates a thin layer on the skin forming a barrier.
Methylglucose dioleate protects the skin from moisture loss and increases its water retention capacity thereby making it softer and healthier

*Hair care:
Methylglucose dioleate conditions the hair and makes them soft and silky.
As a surfactant, Methylglucose dioleate helps the dirt particles trapped on the skin with oil to get mixed with water, so that it gets away rinsed easily with water and is useful for shampoo formulations.
Methylglucose dioleate also thickens the hair product

ORIGIN OF METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE:
Methylglucose dioleate is manufactured via the transesterification of an appropriate fatty acid methyl ester with methyl glucoside.

SAFETY PROFILE OF METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE:
Methylglucose dioleate is considered to be safe for use in cosmetics.

ALTERNATIVES OF METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE:
*COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE,
*LAURYL BETAINE,
*DECYLTETRADECETH200 BEHENATE,
*GLYCERYL ISOSTEARATE,
*CAPRYLIC CAPRIC GLYCERIDES

FUNCTIONS OF METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE IN COSMETIC PRODUCTS:
*SURFACTANT - EMULSIFYING
Methylglucose dioleate allows the formation of finely dispersed mixtures of oil and water (emulsions)

The best procedure is to heat a little of your water to 50-60C and add the PEG, forming a fluid paste which can then be added into the rest of your formula for thickening.

KEY BENEFITS OF METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE:
*Acts as a gentle surfactant and emulsifier
*Improves product texture and stability
*Ideal for sensitive skin

STABILITY AND SHELF LIFE OF METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE:
Stable at a wide pH range, except in strong acid and alkali.
Pack in tight-closed containers(drums or tanks); Store in a dry, ventilated and cool place; Kept away from direct sun and water.

Under proper storage conditions, the shelf life of Methylglucose dioleate is 12 months.
Recommended dosage:
The recommended dosage of Methylglucose dioleate in hair and skin care products is 0.2%-5.0%.

SOLUBILITY OF METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE:
Methylglucose dioleate is soluble in hot water.
Methylglucose dioleate comes as flakes that will soften and dissolve into a water base but this can be quite slow at room temperature.
The best procedure is to heat a little of your water to 50-60C and add the Methylglucose dioleate, forming a fluid paste which can then be added into the rest of your formula for thickening.

IS METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE GOOD FOR SKIN AND HAIR?
Though Methylglucose dioleate has some positive benefits, it is also used in spray-on oven cleaners to dissolve oil and grease.
These petroleum-derived compounds can reduce your skin’s natural moisture.
This can increase the appearance of aging and leave your skin and hair vulnerable to harmful bacteria.

METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE BELONGS:
Belongs to the following substance groups
*Emulsifying agents
*Surfactants

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT METHYLGLUCOSE DIOLEATE ON USE IN COSMETICS:
Emulsifiers are often used in cosmetics as excipients.
They allow actually unmixable components like oil and water to be brought in a permanently stable emulsion.
In this way both aqueous and oily care and active ingredients can be used in one and the same product in cosmetics.

Emulsifiers are able to do that since their molecules consist of a lipophilic and a hydrophilic part.
In this way they can reduce the interfacial tension which actually exists between two incompatible substances like fat and water. Emulsifiers are, more particularly, used for creams, lotions and cleansing agents.

At present emulsifiers are, however, more than only excipients which keep an emulsion stable.
Fatty acid esters on the basis of sugar, lecithin or glycerin monodistearate contribute, for instance, to improving the moisture balance of the skin and are, therefore, also considered as cosmetic active ingredients.

Solid PEG serve as consistency enhancers in lipsticks and creams as well as humectants.
They are well tolerated by the skin and are not microbiologically sensitive, so that in general it is not necessary to add any preservatives.

Polyethylene glycols (INCI: PEG-...) are poly condensation products of ethylene glycol, or polymerisation products of ethylene oxide.
The number added to the name refers to the mean number of ethylene oxide units in the substance.

The consistency of the PEG derivatives is increasingly solid with a growing degree of polymerisation.
PEGs with a mean molar mass of up to 600 g/mol are liquid, up to 1,000 g/mol wax-like and from 4,000 g/mol solid wax-like substances.

By mixing solid and liquid components, products of a creamy consistency are obtained which are used as water-free and water rinse-off bases.
With growing molar mass water solubility and hygroscopicity (ability to absorb moisture) of the polyethylene glycols decrease.

Polyethylene glycols and their derivates are preferentially used in cosmetic products since they have a broad spectrum of viscosity and solubility properties and have a very good skin tolerance.

As water soluble, non-greasy substances polyethylene glycols are suitable for many cosmetic purposes.
The liquid PEGs serve, eg, as glycerol substitute in facial, shaving and hair lotions, as solubilisers and solvents.
