描述

PEG-8000, also known as Polyethylene Glycol PEG8000 (CAS No. 25322-68-3), is a high molecular weight, hydrophilic polymer presented as a white solid with an average molecular weight of approximately 8000. With low volatility, low ash content, and slight hygroscopicity, it offers excellent water solubility and is used as a formulation aid, chemical intermediate, water-soluble lubricant, mold release agent, antistatic agent, humectant, plasticizer, and carrier. Its chemical formula is HO-(C2H4O)n-H, where n is approximately 170-180.

Key Features of PEG-8000

  • Superior Lubricity: Ideal for textile, rubber, and industrial lubricant applications.
  • High Solubility: Soluble in water, supporting versatile formulation needs.
  • Chemical Intermediate: Reacts with fatty acids and dibasic acids to form esters and polyester-based lubricants.
  • Low Toxicity: Safe for use in cosmetics, detergents, and agrochemical formulations.
  • Water-Dispersible Resins: Used as an intermediate for coating applications.
