Frequently Asked Questions
What is Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)?
PEG is a water-soluble polymer widely used in formulations for its moisturizing, emulsifying, and solvent properties.
What are the differences between PEG-400 and PEG-2000?
PEG-400 has lower molecular weight, making it less viscous and ideal for fluid applications, while PEG-2000 is thicker and provides enhanced texture and stabilization.
Are PEGs safe for use in consumer products?
Yes, PEG products are generally recognized as safe when used according to regulatory guidelines in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food.
Where is PEG commonly used?
Common applications include pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food products, and various industrial formulations.
What are the recommended storage conditions for PEG?
Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight to maintain product quality.
