PEG 4000 (Polyethylene Glycol 4000) is a water-soluble linear polyether polymer produced by the polymerization of ethylene oxide, with an average molecular weight of approximately 4000 g/mol. It is supplied as a solid or flake material at ambient conditions and is widely used across rubber, coatings, resin, urethane, and chemical processing industries.
PEG 4000 functions as a binder, dispersant, emulsifier, polyol for urethane systems, lubricant, and intermediate for organic synthesis. Due to its hydroxyl functionality and controlled molecular weight distribution, it is suitable for use in resin modification, elastomer processing, and specialty formulations.
This material is biologically inert in general industrial usage and is available in standard 25 kg packaging, with smaller repacked quantities for laboratory and R&D requirements.

Dosage depends on specific formulation design and end-use application. In urethane systems, PEG 4000 is used based on hydroxyl value and stoichiometric calculations. In rubber and coating formulations, usage levels vary according to processing requirements and compatibility testing.
Recommended dosage may vary based on formulation and processing conditions. Users should verify dosage before commercial use.
