PEG-400 Functions & Applications

PEG 400 is a liquid polyethylene glycol used for humectancy, solubilisation and plasticisation. In personal-care formulations, manufacturer guidance identifies creams, after-shave preparations and hair-styling products where limiting drying or brittle film formation is useful. Industrial applications also use it as a humectant in waterborne pigment preparations. These functions reflect a water-compatible liquid polymer with a lower average chain length than solid PEG grades. The designation should not be confused with a PEG concentration or with PEG-modified silicone ingredients. Selection depends on the required consistency, water balance and compatibility with the ingredients being dissolved or dispersed. Evaluate drying behaviour, feel and stability in the finished system, using the actual grade's impurity controls for the intended market.
