Peg - 2000

Description :

Overview of PEG-2000 

PEG-2000 (Polyethylene Glycol 2000) is a medium-molecular-weight non-ionic polymer highly regarded for its exceptional solubility, lubricity, and chemical stability. Typically appearing as a white, waxy solid or flakes, it serves as a crucial bridge between the liquid and high-molecular-weight solid PEG series. As a versatile industrial-grade ingredient, it is widely used as an emulsifier, solubilizer, and consistency modifier in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and chemical processing industries.

At ChemicalBull Pvt. Ltd., we pride ourselves on being a reliable chemical manufacturer and supplier, providing premium PEG-2000 that ensures batch-to-batch consistency. As a top-rated chemical vendor in Vapi, we offer this product with ex-stock chemical availability to meet your urgent production timelines.

Applications of PEG-2000

Pharmaceutical Formulations & Excipients

In the pharma industry, PEG-2000 is used to enhance the solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs. It is often used in the preparation of suppositories and topical ointments. For a complete formulation solution, it can be combined with PEG-4000 or PEG-6000 to achieve the desired melting point and drug release profile.

Cosmetic & Personal Care Products

PEG-2000 acts as an excellent humectant and base for creams and lotions. It provides a smooth, non-greasy feel to the skin. To improve the moisturizing properties of your skincare range, consider formulating it with Glycerin or Sorbitol 70%, both available at competitive wholesale chemical pricing on our platform.

Industrial Lubricants & Antistatic Agents

In the textile and rubber industries, PEG-2000 is utilized as an effective lubricant and antistatic agent. It helps in reducing friction during fiber processing. As a reputable chemical sourcing partner, we recommend using it alongside Stearic Acid for specialized industrial coating and molding applications.

Chemical Intermediates & Synthesis

It serves as a functional intermediate in the production of surfactants and esters. Many industrial cleaners benefit from the addition of PEG-2000 for improved surface wetting. It works synergistically with SLES 70% to create stable and high-performance cleaning emulsions.

Safety Precautions When Handling PEG-2000

• Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to prevent the waxy flakes from clumping.

• Use standard PPE, including gloves and safety goggles, to avoid skin and eye irritation.

• Keep the product away from strong oxidizing agents and high-temperature zones.

• Ensure the packaging is moisture-proof to maintain the product's integrity over time.

• Consult the guidelines from our technical data sheet (TDS) provider for detailed safety and handling protocols.
