Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), .alpha.-hydro-.omega.-hydroxy-, ether with methyl d-glucopyranoside 2,6-bis[(Z)-9-octadecenoate] (2:1) (120 mol EO average molar ratio)

PEG-120 METHYL GLUCOSE DIOLEATE is listed in the European Commission CosIng inventory under the functional category Surfactant - Emulsifying, with CAS number 86893-19-8. In the free INCIDB sample it appears on 2 product labels, reaching position 14 on Schwarzkopf Extra Care Full Hair Protect Anti-Breakage Shampoo 200mL. Fulton (1989) grades it 0 on the 0–5 comedogenicity scale; that grade is transcribed as-is and is the only rating source used. INCIDB's rule-derived heuristic flags it as a possible Malassezia (fungal-acne) trigger. That is a rule, not a measurement — treat it as a filter rather than a finding.
