PEG 200 also known as Polyethylene Glycol 200 is a clear, viscous, hydrophilic polyether compound with an average molecular weight of ~200 Da. PEG 200 is part of the polyethylene glycol series and is valued for its solvent capabilities, lubrication, moisture retention, and chemical stability specifically used in industrial segments. PEG 200 serves as a foundational polyether in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and industrial systems as due to its low molecular weight and liquid form. PEG 200 or MACROGOL 200 is preferred where water solubility, mildness, and viscosity control are essential in topical drug delivery, lubricant blending, and polymer dispersion systems.
