description Product Description

Polyethylene oxide is a versatile water-soluble polymer widely used across various industries due to its unique properties, including biocompatibility, flexibility, and film-forming ability. In the pharmaceutical sector, it serves as a binder, thickening agent, and lubricant in tablet formulations, ensuring controlled drug release. In personal care and cosmetics, it acts as a viscosity modifier, stabilizer, and moisturizer in shampoos, lotions, and creams. In water treatment processes, it functions as a flocculant to enhance sedimentation and filtration efficiency. In textiles, it aids in fiber production and improves fabric softness. In the paper industry, it increases strength and durability. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in the production of adhesives, coatings, and films, providing flexibility and durability. In biomedical applications, polyethylene oxide is used in hydrogels for wound dressings and drug delivery systems.
