Polyethylene Glycol, commonly known as PEG (Polyether Polyols), is a versatile polymer of ethylene oxide. Within Pharmaceutical, Beauty & Personal Care, & Industrial Chemicals hierarchies, PEG series is defined by its molecular weight, which dictates its physical form—ranging from clear, viscous liquids (PEG 200–600) to waxy solids (PEG 1000–6000). Source High-Purity Polyethylene Glycol (CAS 25322-68-3) from Scimplify, your authoritative global manufacturer of multi-grade PEG polymers. From the low-molecular-weight PEG 200/400 liquids used as high-efficiency solubilizers to the high-molecular-weight PEG 4000/6000 solids used as structural binders. PEG has MW ranges from 200 to 30000 and, it is preferred in chemical synthesis, softeners, and cosmetic excipients. MACROGOL 200 is valued for its solvent capabilities, lubrication, moisture retention, and chemical stability, specifically used in industrial segments. MF =𝐻(𝑂𝐶𝐻2𝐶𝐻2)𝑛𝑂𝐻, where 'n' denotes the average number of repeating ethylene oxide units. Polyethylene oxide or PEG also serves as a foundational polyether in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and industrial systems (polymer dispersion systems). Our Pharma-Grade PEG series meets strict USP/NF and EP compendial standards, offering non-toxic, non-irritating solutions for liquid and solid dosage forms. As an authoritative polyethylene glycol supplier, we provide materials that excel as humectants in skincare, mold release agents in rubber manufacturing, and viscosity regulators in detergents. Scimplify ensures Global Regulatory Compliance, providing the chemical stability, international SDS/COA transparency, and reliable bulk lead times required for the modern chemical supply chain.

Chemical Properties & Specifications
Not classified as hazardous under GHS
P280: Wear gloves/eye protection during bulk handling P261: Avoid breathing vapors in confined spaces P264: Wash thoroughly after handling P305+P351+P338: In case of eye contact, rinse with water
Low oral and dermal toxicity; non-irritating under standard use
Liquids (200-600): Solvent carriers in liquid-fill capsules and oral solutions
Solids (1000-6000): Water-soluble bases for ointments and suppositories. PEG 4000/6000 are essential as binders and lubricants in tablet compression.
Humectants, drawing moisture into the skin. In shampoos and lotions, they serve as viscosity modifiers and solubilisers for fragrances and essential oils. High-weight PEGs provide a creamy "spreadability" to lipsticks and solid balms
In the textile industry-Lubricants for fibers during spinning
In the rubber and plastics industries-Functions as effective mold release agents
Synthetic polymers-plasticisers in adhesives and as antistatic agents
Solvent Power: Compatible with polar and semi-polar compounds
Hydrophilic Carrier: Enhances bioavailability in drug systems
Non-Volatile: Thermally stable in extended processing environments
Blendable: Mixes well with other PEG grades or polyols
Low Toxicity & Biocompatibility: Safe for skin-contact applications
Paints & Coatings: Flow modifier, viscosity reducer
Store at 15–30°C
Dry, well-ventilated; avoid prolonged heat exposure
Protect from moisture ingress
Highly stable but hygroscopic. Liquid grades may undergo slow oxidative degradation if exposed to heat and air.
Store in a cool, dry place. Liquid grades should be kept in stainless steel or HDPE containers, preferably under a Nitrogen Blanket for long-term storage.
Non-hazardous for transport. Liquids available in 230kg drums or IBCs; Solids (4000/6000) available in 25kg bags or flakes.
Use PEG 200–600 when you need a water-soluble solvent to dissolve a poorly soluble drug. Use PEG 4000–6000 when you need structural integrity, such as in a tablet (as a binder) or a suppository (to maintain shape at room temperature).
Yes. For pharmaceutical and personal care applications, we ensure residual Ethylene Oxide (< 1 ppm) and 1,4-Dioxane (< 10 ppm) are strictly controlled to meet global safety mandates.
Absolutely. One of the greatest advantages of the PEG series is that they are fully compatible with one another. By blending a liquid (e.g., PEG 400) with a solid (e.g., PEG 4000), you can create a customized, ointment-like consistency perfectly suited for your specific application.
Discoloration is usually a sign of oxidation, triggered by exposure to moisture and high temperatures. Ensure the material is stored in original, sealed packaging away from direct sunlight. For industrial processes, adding a trace amount of an antioxidant (like BHT) can help preserve color during heating.
