Suzhou PEG-4000 Multi-Purpose Raw Material, Versatile for Food, Beverage, Pharmaceutical, and Daily Chemical Industries
Polyethylene Glycol 4000 (PEG-4000) appears as a white or off-white solid with excellent water solubility and thermal stability. It is odorless, low-irritation, and possesses properties such as lubrication, film-forming, moisturizing, and solubilization. PEG-4000 is commonly used in pharmaceutical preparations as a suppository base, tablet excipient, and controlled-release system. It is also widely applied in cosmetics as a moisturizer and emulsifying stabilizer. Additionally, it finds applications in food processing, rubber, coatings, and other industries, demonstrating excellent multi-purpose performance.
