Polyethylene glycol

Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) is a polyether compound composed of repeating units of ethylene oxide. It is a water-soluble, non-toxic, and biodegradable polymer available in liquid, paste, or solid (powder/granule) form, depending on its molecular weight. PEG is widely used as a solvent, dispersant, humectant, lubricant, and carrier in multiple industrial and pharmaceutical applications. Its chemical formula is generally written as H–(O–CH₂–CH₂)ₙ–OH, where n indicates the number of repeating ethylene oxide units.

Applications

  • Pharmaceutical Industry – Used as a laxative, solvent, ointment base, and drug carrier.
  • Cosmetic & Personal Care – Moisturizer, humectant, and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and toothpaste.
  • Water Treatment – Acts as a dispersant or anti-foaming agent in chemical formulations.
  • Textile Industry – Used as a softening agent, lubricant, and anti-static agent.
  • Food Industry – Serves as a humectant, thickener, or stabilizer in food processing (food-grade PEG).
  • Industrial Applications – Lubricant, plasticizer, and binder in coatings, inks, and adhesives.

Advantages

  • Highly Water-Soluble – Easily mixes with water and other solvents.
  • Non-Toxic & Biodegradable – Safe for pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic use.
  • Versatile Molecular Weights – Can be tailored from liquids to solids for different applications.
  • Humectant & Moisturizer – Retains moisture effectively in products.
  • Chemical Stability – Resistant to oxidation and degradation under normal conditions.
  • Enhances Product Performance – Improves texture, solubility, and handling properties.
