Polyethylene Glycols Classified Depending on its Number-Average Molecular Weight

構造式

Features

· Compatible with skin/water-soluble & -retainable/non-volatile/free from greasiness.
· Low acute toxicity/low irritancy to eyes & skins.
· This roduct and its aqueous solutions show excellent lubricity.
<Pharmaceutical Applications>
· Pharmacehtical grade is different as a trade name of MACROGOL that conforms to Japanese Pharmacopoeia.
<Cosmetics & Toiletries>
· Base material for the use of hair-care/skin-care.
· Water-soluble bases which have low acute toxicity and low irritation to the skins and eyes.
· Moisturizing agents/moistening agents/solvents. Has binder effects and effective as the binding agent for powder cosmetic.
· Used as foam stabilizing agents for shampoos and face washes and capable of refreshingly washing up.
· Used for various purposes that take advantage of its features, such as prevention of blocking of powder detergents and prevention of reattachment contamination.
· Exhibits high binding power and is soluble in water. Therefore, it is applicable as binders for face powders and detergent enzymes.
<Textiles>
· Applicable as antistatic agents for polyester fibers.
<Papermaking>
· Softeners - Suitable as paper softeners; the softening effect lasts a long time due to the low volatility of PEG products.
· Lubricants - Blended with starch paste or protein paste are applicable as lubricants for paper calendering.
<Rubber>
· Extruding Lubricants - Kneaded with natural and synthetic rubbers improves fluidity of compounds and dispersibility of fillers including carbon black, and increases the vulcanization rate. PEG-4000S also allows the rubber to be easily removed from the mold.
· Molding Lubricants - Applicable as a lubricant for use when molding natural and synthetic rubbers. After molding, this product is easily rinsed off the rubber surface.
<Resins>
· Plasticizers - Applicable as a plasticizer for urea resins.
· Antistatic Agents - Available as polymer-alloy type antistatic agents for polyester, ABS resins, nylon, and polyacetal.
· Resin Modifiers - Imparts flexibility and hydrophilic properties to polyester, polyurethane and alkyd resins when it modifies the resins by using its primary hydroxyl groups at both ends of its molecule.
<Metals>
· Binder and Dustproofing Agents - Applicable as a binder for use in manufacturing powder metallurgy using metal powders, and as a dustproofing agent for abrasives made of aluminum oxide.
<Woods>
· Anti-Cracking Agents - Deformation of the unearthed wooden cultural properties can be prevented by gradual substitution of moisture with PEG-4000S.
<Agrichemicals>
· Auxiliaries - Effective in controlling fluidity and anticaking for powdery preparations and flowable agrichemicals.
<Chemical Products>
· Surfactants-Various surfactants can be synthesized through reactions of the primary hydroxyl groups at both ends of the PEG molecule. Among them, the higher fatty acid esters of PEG products are surfactants that are widely used as emulsifiers, dispersants and detergents.
· Other Chemical Materials-The primary hydroxyl groups at both ends of the PEG molecule can be chemically changed to other groups (alkyl-etherified, aminated, carboxylated, glycidyl etherified, or esterified). These PEG derivatives can be used as raw materials for various chemical products.
<Others>
· Heat Reservoirs - Applicable as heat reservoirs due to its high fusion heat.
