Polyethylene Glycol CAS 25322-68-3

Introduction to Polyethylene Glycol CAS 25322-68-3:

Polyethylene glycol is a polymer formed by the condensation of ethylene oxide and water under catalyst and pressure.
Polyethylene glycol series products can be used as raw materials for ester-type surfactants, as medium for organic synthesis and as heat carrier with high requirements; used as moisturizer, inorganic salt solubilizer, viscosity regulator in daily chemical industry; used as softener and antistatic agent in textile industry; used as wetting agent in papermaking and pesticide industry.

Physical Properties of Polyethylene Glycol CAS 25322-68-3:

Applications of Polyethylene Glycol (CAS 25322-68-3) in Cosmetics Industry

Due to the excellent properties of polyethylene glycol, including water solubility, non volatility, physiological inertness, mildness, lubricity, and the ability to wet, soften, and provide a pleasant aftertaste to the skin. 

Polyethylene glycol with different relative molecular weight fractions can be selected to alter the viscosity, moisture absorption, and microstructure of the product. Polyethylene glycol (Mr<2000) with low relative molecular weight is suitable for use as a wetting agent and consistency regulator, for creams, lotion, toothpaste, shaving cream, etc., and also for hair care products that are not cleaned, giving hair silky luster. Polyethylene glycol (Mr>2000) with high relative molecular weight is suitable for lipstick, deodorant stick, soap, shaving soap, foundation make-up and beauty cosmetics. Polyethylene glycol is also used as a suspension agent and thickener in cleaning agents. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used as a matrix for ointments, emulsions, ointments, detergents, and suppositories.

Applications of Polyethylene Glycol (CAS 25322-68-3) in Pharmaceutical Industry

Polyethylene glycol is widely used in various pharmaceutical formulations, such as injections, topical formulations, ophthalmic formulations, oral and rectal formulations. Solid grade polyethylene glycol can be added to liquid polyethylene glycol to adjust viscosity and used for topical ointments; Polyethylene glycol mixture can be used as a suppository base; Polyethylene glycol aqueous solution can be used as a suspension aid or to adjust the viscosity of other suspension media; Polyethylene glycol is used in combination with other emulsifiers to increase emulsion stability. In addition, polyethylene glycol is also used as a film coating agent, tablet lubricant, controlled release material, etc.
