Basic Information

Product Description

Product Name：Polyethylene Glycol Series

CAS No: 25322-68-3

Form: Solid

Product Application

1. Pharmaceuticals & Medical Industry：

Drug Formulations:

Solid Dispersions: PEG-6000, etc., as carriers to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs (e.g., itraconazole, nifedipine).

Suppository Bases: Blends like PEG-1000/4000 for water-soluble, non-irritating, stable suppositories.

Ointment & Gel Bases: PEG-400/1500, etc., as water-washable bases for rapid drug release.

Tablet Binder/Lubricant/Coating Material: PEG-4000/6000 as binders/plasticizers; PEG-8000+ for film coatings.

Medical Devices: Used in ultrasound coupling gels​ and as lubricants.

2. Cosmetics & Personal Care

Humectant & Emollient: Low MW PEG (e.g., PEG-400) is an effective humectant.

Thickener & Stabilizer: High MW PEG (e.g., PEG-1500) thickens aqueous phases.

Solvent & Carrier: Dissolves actives and aids penetration.

Cream Base: Blended to adjust product hardness and melting point.

(III) Industrial & Chemical Sectors

Plasticizer: For resins like cellulose and PVA to increase flexibility.

Lubricant & Release Agent: Internal/external lubricant and mold release agent in rubber/plastics processing.

Metalworking: Component in quenching fluids​ and wire drawing lubricants.

Wood Processing: For softening wood to facilitate bending.

Ceramics Industry: As a binder and plasticizer.

Household & I&I Cleaning: Viscosity modifier and anti-redeposition agent in liquid detergents.

3. Other Fields

Laboratory Reagents: For protein crystallization, cell fusion, chromatography media.

Agriculture: As a dispersant and synergist for agrochemicals.
