Is PEG-14 Tallate vegan?

PEG-14 Tallate is a polyethylene glycol ester of tall oil fatty acids, ethoxylated with an average of 14 moles of ethylene oxide; tall oil is a byproduct of wood pulp processing, but 'tallate' naming can sometimes cause confusion with tallow, so sourcing should be confirmed.

An ingredient is considered vegan if it contains no animal-derived components at any point in its production.
