description Product Description

Polyethylene oxide is widely used in various industries due to its unique properties. In the pharmaceutical sector, it serves as a binder, thickener, and film-forming agent in tablets and capsules. It is also utilized in controlled-release drug formulations, where it helps regulate the release of active ingredients over time. In the personal care industry, it is a key component in products like shampoos, lotions, and creams, providing viscosity and stability. In the food industry, it is used as a thickener and processing aid. Additionally, it is employed in water treatment processes as a flocculant to aid in the removal of suspended particles. In the paper and textile industries, it improves the physical properties of materials. In industrial applications, it acts as a lubricant and viscosity modifier in coatings, adhesives, and inks. Its ability to form films and gels makes it valuable in biomedical applications, such as wound dressings and tissue engineering scaffolds. Furthermore, it is used in scientific research as a medium for biochemical experiments and cell studies.
