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. Additionally, it is employed in water treatment processes as a flocculant to aid in the removal of suspended particles. 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.
