Four application areas of PEG

Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) is an organic compound that has colorless, odorless, non-toxic properties and can be dissolved in water and many organic solvents. Polyethylene glycol can be divided into different molecular weight grades, common PEG400, PEG600, PEG1500 and so on. Polyethylene glycol series products are non-toxic, non-irritating, slightly bitter, with good water solubility, and many organic components have a good compatibility.
