Industrial Grade Polyethylene Glycol

Industrial grade PEG is available in a wide range of molecular weights, including PEG-200, PEG-300, PEG-400, PEG-600, PEG-1000, PEG-1500, PEG-2000, PEG-4000, PEG-6000, and PEG-8000. Lower molecular weight grades appear as clear liquids, while higher molecular weight grades are supplied as semi-solids, flakes, granules, or free-flowing powders, allowing precise selection for different process requirements. Low molecular weight PEGs such as PEG-200 to PEG-400 are widely used as industrial solvents, plasticizers, humectants, heat-transfer media, and formulation carriers in resins, inks, coatings, lubricants, and surface treatment chemicals. Medium molecular weight PEGs including PEG-600 to PEG-2000 function effectively as binders, dispersants, emulsifiers, lubricants, and viscosity modifiers in rubber processing, textiles, ceramics, agrochemicals, and cleaning formulations.

High molecular weight PEGs such as PEG-4000 to PEG-8000 are solid materials used as processing aids, mold-release agents, anti-static additives, slip agents, and controlled-release matrices in industrial compounds, polymer modification, and specialty chemical applications. Molecular weights of industrial PEG typically range from 200 to over 8,000 g/mol, directly influencing solubility, melting point, viscosity, and mechanical behavior. Key properties of industrial grade polyethylene glycol include excellent water solubility, low volatility, chemical and thermal stability, lubricating performance, low toxicity, and high compatibility with organic and inorganic materials. Supplied in drums, bags, or bulk packaging, industrial grade PEG provides manufacturers with a reliable, multifunctional polymer solution for efficient processing, consistent performance, and broad industrial usability.
