Poly Ethylene Glycol, Liquid

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a polyether compound composed of repeating ethylene glycol units. It is a clear, colorless, and odorless liquid or solid, depending on its molecular weight. PEG is widely used in various industries due to its versatility, biocompatibility, and water solubility. In pharmaceuticals, it is employed as a base for ointments, creams, and laxatives, and as a vehicle for drug delivery systems. In cosmetics, PEG serves as an emulsifier, moisturizer, and thickening agent in lotions, creams, and shampoos. It is also utilized in the manufacturing of adhesives, lubricants, and textile coatings. PEG comes in different molecular weights, which determine its physical properties and suitability for specific applications
