Overview of Polytetramethylene Ether Glycol-1000

Polytetramethylene Ether Glycol 1000 (PTMEG-1000) is a type of polyether glycol which is used in the production of the polyurethanes, elastomers and adhesives and coatings. It has a high degree of high flexibility, chemical resistance as well as a lower glass transition temperature. This makes it ideal for numerous industrial purposes. The polymer's structure provides excellent thermal and mechanical properties.

For those without a technical background, PTMEG-1000 is an additive that improves elasticity, resilience, and durability in polymer products. It is widely used in the plastics and rubber industries.

 

 

Applications of Polytetramethylene Ether Glycol-1000

 

Polyurethane & Elastomer Production

PTMEG-1000 is used to make flexible polyurethanes, elastomeric fibers, and films. It adds mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, and elasticity. When combined with Cobalt Octoate, it helps improve polymerization and curing.

 

Adhesives & Coatings

PTMEG-1000 is added to adhesives and coatings to boost flexibility, chemical resistance, and long-term performance. Used with Zinc Stearate, it improves flow, processing, and consistency in industrial products.

 

Industrial Chemical Formulations

When used with 1,4-Butanediol, PTMEG-1000 helps polyester and polyether systems reach specific mechanical and thermal properties for specialty chemical uses.

 

Safety & Handling Guidelines
