| Both PEGs and mPEGs are polyethers, synthesized via the polymerization of ethylene oxide. mPEGs have one methoxy end group unlike two hydroxyl end groups in PEGs. Both are safe and inert materials and are hydrophilic nature. They have excellent solubility in water as well as polar organic solvents, and water binding capability. They are used in many applications in the home, personal and medical care fields, food processing as well as some industrial application. They function as rheology modifiers, dispersants, emulsion stabilizers, moisturizers, and foam reducers. |
