These applications utilize sodium palmitate, which is commonly obtained by saponification of palm oil.
To this end, palm oil, rendered from the coconut palm nut, is treated with sodium hydroxide (in the form of caustic soda or lye), which causes hydrolysis of the ester groups. This procedure affords glycerol and sodium palmitate.
Because it is inexpensive and adds texture to processed foods (convenience food), palmitic acid and its sodium salt find wide use including foodstuffs.
Sodium palmitate is permitted as a natural additive in organic products.
Hydrogenation of palmitic acid yields cetyl alcohol, which is used to produce detergents and cosmetics.
Recently, a long-acting antipsychotic medication, paliperidone palmitate (marketed as INVEGA Sustenna), used in the treatment of schizophrenia, has been synthesized using the oily palmitate ester as a long-acting release carrier medium when injected intramuscularly.
The underlying method of drug delivery is similar to that used with decanoic acid to deliver long-acting depot medication, in particular, neuroleptics such as haloperidol decanoate.

Production Methods

Palmitic acid (PA) has been for long time negatively depicted for Palmitic acid putative detrimental health effects, shadowing Palmitic acid multiple crucial physiological activities.
Palmitic acid is the most common saturated fatty acid accounting for 20–30% of total fatty acids in the human body and can be provided in the diet or synthesized endogenously via de novo lipogenesis (DNL).
Palmitic acid tissue content seems to be controlled around a well-defined concentration, and changes in Palmitic acid intake do not influence significantly Palmitic acid tissue concentration because the exogenous source is counterbalanced by Palmitic acid endogenous biosynthesis.

Particular physiopathological conditions and nutritional factors may strongly induce DNL, resulting in increased tissue content of Palmitic acid and disrupted homeostatic control of Palmitic acid tissue concentration.
The tight homeostatic control of Palmitic acid tissue concentration is likely related to Palmitic acid fundamental physiological role to guarantee membrane physical properties but also to consent protein palmitoylation, palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) biosynthesis, and in the lung an efficient surfactant activity.

In order to maintain membrane phospholipids (PL) balance may be crucial an optimal intake of Palmitic acid in a certain ratio with unsaturated fatty acids, especially PUFAs of both n-6 and n-3 families.
However, in presence of other factors such as positive energy balance, excessive intake of carbohydrates (in particular mono and disaccharides), and a sedentary lifestyle, the mechanisms to maintain a steady state of Palmitic acid concentration may be disrupted leading to an over accumulation of tissue.

Palmitic acid resulting in dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, increased ectopic fat accumulation and increased inflammatory tone via toll-like receptor 4.
Palmitic acid is therefore likely that the controversial data on the association of dietary Palmitic acid with detrimental health effects, may be related to an excessive imbalance of dietary PA/PUFA ratio which, in certain physiopathological conditions, and in presence of an enhanced DNL, may further accelerate these deleterious effects.

Structure and Properties of Palmitic Acid:
Palmitic acid is a saturated fatty acid (no double bond so in shorthand 16:0) member of the sub-group called long chain fatty acids (LCFA), from 14 to 18 carbon atoms.

Palmitic Acid is the first fatty acid produced during fatty acid synthesis in humans and the fatty acid from which longer fatty acids can be produced.

Palmitic acid was discovered by Edmond Frémy in 1840, in saponified palm oil.
This remains the primary industrial route for Palmitic Acid production, with the triglycerides (fats) in palm oil being hydrolysed by high temperature water (above 200 °C or 390 °F), and the resulting mixture fractionally distilled to give the pure product.

As a consequence, palmitic acid is a major body component of animals.
In humans, one analysis found Palmitic Acid to make up 21–30% (molar) of human depot fat, and Palmitic Acid is a major, but highly variable, lipid component of human breast milk.
Palmitate negatively feeds back on acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), which is responsible for converting acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, which in turn is used to add to the growing acyl chain, thus preventing further palmitate generation

One of the main functions of palmitic acid alkali salts is that they acts as emulsifiers and surfactants, allowing oil based, hydrophobic molecules to interact with water where normally they would repel each other.
This works by the fatty acid end of the salt interacting with the oil while the salt end interacts with the water creating an adapter between oil and water.

In some products this increases the stability of the product as oil and water would naturally separate without Palmitic Acid.
In soaps and cleansing oils, the fatty end grabs oil and water-resistant make up on your skin while the salt end then lets water wash everything off.

Research of Palmitic acid:
Palmitic acid is well accepted in the medical community that palmitic acid from dietary sources raises low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and total cholesterol.
The World Health Organization have stated there is convincing evidence that palmitic acid increases cardiovascular disease risk.

A 2021 review indicated that replacing dietary palmitic acid and other saturated fatty acids with unsaturated fatty acids, such as oleic acid, could reduce several biomarkers of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

Pharmacology and Biochemistry of Palmitic acid:

Pharmacodynamics:
Palmitic acid is the first fatty acid produced during lipogenesis (fatty acid synthesis) and from which longer fatty acids can be produced.
Palmitate negatively feeds back on acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) which is responsible for converting acetyl-ACP to malonyl-ACP on the growing acyl chain, thus preventing further palmitate generation

MeSH Pharmacological Classification of Palmitic acid:

Enzyme Inhibitors:
Compounds or agents that combine with an enzyme in such a manner as to prevent the normal substrate-enzyme combination and the catalytic reaction.

Bionecessity:
Palmitic acid is required for biosynthesis of lung lecithin, which is related to fetal maturation.
Radiochromatogram showed high incorporation of palmitate into lecithin by fetal lung.
Content in palm oil in Nigerian meals can partly be related to low incidence of respiratory distress.

Palmitic acid is a saturated fatty acid present in the diet and synthesized endogenously.
Although often considered to have adverse effects on chronic disease in adults, Palmitic acid is an essential component of membrane, secretory, and transport lipids, with crucial roles in protein palmitoylation and signal molecules.

At birth, the term infant is 13-15% body fat, with 45-50% Palmitic acid, much of which is derived from endogenous synthesis in the fetus.
After birth, the infant accumulates adipose tissue at high rates, reaching 25% body weight as fat by 4-5 months age.

Over this time, human milk provides 10% dietary energy as Palmitic acid, but in unusual triglycerides with Palmitic acid on the glycerol center carbon.
This paper reviews the synthesis and oxidation of Palmitic acid and possible reasons why the infant is endowed with large amounts of fat and Palmitic acid.

The marked deviations in tissues with displacement of Palmitic acid that can occur in infants fed vegetable oil formulas is introduced.
Assuming fetal fatty acid synthesis and the unusual delivery of Palmitic acid in human milk evolved to afford survival advantage to the neonate, Palmitic acid is timely to question if Palmitic acid is an essential component of tissue lipids whereby both deficiency and excess are detrimental.

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion of Palmitic acid:
Added (14)C-labeled palmitate was more significantly incorporated into lipid fractions of muscle fibers from fetal and neonatal monkeys than those from adults.

More (14)C-labeled palmitate was incorporated into lipid by adipose tissue of genetically obese rats than by controls.
Radioactivity has been traced to the heart, liver, lung, spleen, kidney, muscle, intestine, adrenal, blood, and lymph, and adipose, mucosal, and dental tissues after administration of radioactive oleic, palmitic, or stearic acids.

Fatty acids originating from adipose tissue stores are either bound to serum albumin or remain unesterified in the blood.

Storage Conditions:
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Storage class (TRGS 510): Non Combustible Solids

Accidental Release Measures of Palmitic acid:

Spillage Disposal:
Sweep spilled substance into covered containers.
If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting.

Cleanup Methods of Palmitic acid:

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Avoid dust formation.
Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas.

Environmental precautions:
No special environmental precautions required.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
Sweep up and shovel.
Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Disposal Methods of Palmitic acid:
Recycle any unused portion of the material for Palmitic acid approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier.

Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider:
Palmitic acid's impact on air quality; potential migration in air, soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.
If Palmitic acid is possible or reasonable use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational harm/injury/toxicity or environmental contamination.

Offer surplus and non-recyclable solutions to a licensed disposal company.

Contaminated packaging:
Dispose of as unused product

Preventive Measures of Palmitic acid:

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Avoid dust formation.
Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas.

Gloves must be inspected prior to use.
Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product.

Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices.
Wash and dry hands.

Further processing of solid materials may result in the formation of combustible dusts.
The potential for combustible dust formation should be taken into consideration before additional processing occurs.

Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed.
Local exhaust ventilation should be applied wherever there is an incidence of point source emissions or dispersion of regulated contaminants in the work area.

Ventilation control of the contaminant as close to Palmitic acid point of generation is both the most economical and safest method to minimize personnel exposure to airborne contaminants.
Ensure that the local ventilation moves the contaminant away from the worker.

The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses by industrial workers is inconsistent.
The benefits or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon Palmitic acid, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses.
However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye.

In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn.
In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

Details Though the official function of P-Anisic Acid is masking (meaning that it helps to mask not so nice smells in the product), according to manufacturer info it is rather used as a preservative. It is a skin friendly organic acid that works against fungi. SODIUM ANISATE is derived from fennel, this is the sodium salt of p-anisic acid. p-Anisic Acid is classified as antimicrobial and flavouring. p-Anisic Acid acts as an anti-fungal agent, and when paired with sodium levulinate the two ingredients make for a comprehensive preservative for cosmetics. P-Anisic Acid is approved for use in organic cosmetics. Sodium anisate (dermosoft® anisate) is an easy to use water soluble salt of an organic acid with an excellent fungicidal activity. p-Anisic Acid can be added to the cold or hot water phase at any step of the process.

Overview If you looked around your home, you’d likely run across panthenol in several ingredients lists of products you own. Panthenol appears in food, supplements, and hygienic products of a wide variety. D-Panthenol has a similar chemical structure to alcohol. D-Panthenol’s used to help hydrate and smooth your skin and hair from the inside in its ingestible form and from the outside in its topical form. But is D-Panthenol safe for you and your family when it appears in personal care products? Read on to find out why panthenol is in so many cosmetics and read the facts to understand how it affects your body. What is d-panthenol? d-Panthenol is a chemical substance made from pantothenic acid, also known as vitamin B-5. D-Panthenol occurs organically and can also be produced from both plant and animal sources. D-Panthenol’s used as an additive in various cosmetic products around the globe. You very likely have pantothenic acid in your system right now, since it occurs in so many common food sources. And you’ve likely used a cosmetic or personal care product with D-Panthenol within the last 24 hours. D-Panthenol takes the form of either a white powder or a transparent oil at room temperature. You will sometimes see panthenol listed under one of its other names on ingredients list, including: dexpanthenol D-pantothenyl alcohol butanamide alcohol analog of pantothenic acid provitamin B-5 When absorbed into the body, panthenol becomes vitamin B-5. What’s D-Panthenol used for? In topical cosmetics, product manufacturers often use panthenol as a moisturizer. But D-Panthenol’s also included in many cosmetics as a softening, soothing, and anti-irritant agent.D-Panthenol also helps your skin build up a barrier against irritation and water loss. Skin products Vitamin B-5 is essential for a healthy diet, skin, and hair. D-Panthenol makes sense that panthenol, its derivative, is a staple of many skin care products, such as lotions and cleansers. D-Panthenol’s also found in cosmetics as various as lipstick, foundation, or even mascara.D-Panthenol also appears in creams made to treat insect bites, poison ivy, and even diaper rash. The National Center for Biotechnology Information lists panthenol as a skin protectant with anti-inflammatory properties. D-Panthenol can help improve skin’s hydration, elasticity, and smooth appearance. D-Panthenol also soothes: red skin inflammation little cuts or sores like bug bites or shaving irritation D-Panthenol helps with wound healing, as well as other skin irritations like eczema.

PANTHENOL
Panthenol is a chemical substance made from pantothenic acid, also known as vitamin B-5.
Panthenol is made from vitamin B5, also known as pantothenic acid which is found in all living things.
Panthenol is an odorless, transparent, highly viscous, and colorless liquid at room temperature.


CAS Number: 81-13-0 / 16485-10-2
EINECS/ELINCS Number: 201-327-3 / 240-540-6
MDL number: MFCD00065006
Chemical formula: C9H19NO4


Panthenol is a compound that's structurally similar to vitamin B5, or pantothenic acid.
Panthenol's also known as provitamin B5 because it converts into vitamin B5 in the skin.
Chemically, pantothenol is an alcohol, which means it has a hydroxyl group (an oxygen and a hydrogen bonded together).


This hydroxyl group is what makes panthenol different from pantothenic acid.
Panthenol, also known as pro-vitamin B5, is the precursor of vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid, which is a natural constituent of the hair).
Panthenol's name comes from the Greek “pantothen” which means “everywhere”.


Vitamin B5 is found throughout living organisms.
In particular, it plays a role in the development and proper functioning of the central nervous system.
Panthenol is found in certain foods such as meat, fish, egg yolk, almonds and nuts.


Panthenol is a stable form of vitamin B5.
Panthenol is known for its moisturising, soothing and repairing properties.
Panthenol is water soluble and “plays well” with many different types of ingredients, making it easy to formulate with for moisturizers, serums, toners, etc.


As a raw material, two forms of panthenol can be incorporated in personal care product formulas: D-panthenol is a viscous oil and DL-panthenol comes in the form of a white, crystalline powder.
According to the Cosmetic Ingredient Review assessment from 2018, the highest reported concentration of panthenol in a personal care product was 5.3%, which was deemed safe in its use.


Panthenol is a compound found naturally in humans and can also be obtained from plants and animals, with positive effects on the skin.
Panthenol can be obtained from vitamin B5 or pantothenic acid. Panthenol is an important compound for its benefits to the skin.
Panthenol can be found in many cosmetic products such as conditioner, shampoo, shower gel, hair and body moisturizer, face cream, foundation, lipstick, under eye concealer.


In the ingredient list of these products, you can see that D-Panthenol, DL-Panthenol, dexpanthenol, D-Pantothenyl alcohol, butanamide or provitamin B5 are written.
After Panthenol is applied to the body with various products, it is absorbed by the skin and then turns into the form of vitamin B5.
Panthenol comes in two enantiomers: D, and L. Only D-panthenol (dexpanthenol) is biologically active. For cosmetic use, panthenol comes either in D form or as a racemic mixture of D and L (DL-panthenol).


Panthenol speeds up cell turnover and stimulates fibroblasts in the skin.
This is crucial for wound healing, as fibroblasts are necessary for creating structural skin proteins like collagen and elastin.
These proteins are key for facilitating proper tissue repair and wound closure—and ultimately, happy skin.


Panthenol is an alcohol analog of pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5), and thus a provitamin of B5.

When absorbed into the body, panthenol becomes vitamin B-5.



USES and APPLICATIONS of PANTHENOL:
Panthenolis used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products for its benefits for dry, damaged and sensitive skin.
Panthenol is recommended for people with skin problems such as eczema and is very well tolerated, even by the most sensitive skin.
Panthenol is a well-known active ingredient for treating diaper rash in babies and mild burns.


Panthenol is also used for hair and scalp care.
Panthenol is capable of binding to the hair surface.
In a shampoo and conditioner routine, Panthenol is deposited on the hair and thus protects the fiber.


Panthenol has also been shown to repair damaged hair and reduce the damage caused by excessive brushing.
Panthenol also has a humectant (wetting) property.
We use panthenol in our face and body care products, for its moisturising, soothing and repairing properties, and for all skin types, even the most sensitive.


We use Panthenol in makeup, specifically mascara, to strengthen the lashes and give them shine.
Panthenol is also used in the composition of our complexion products for the same benefits as in skin care.
We use Panthenol in haircare products for its moisturising efficiency as it helps to protect the hair and skin on the scalp.


Hair that is dehydrated or low in moisture can benefit from moisturizing properties of panthenol.
Panthenol is used as an emollient, panthenol is also good for rough textured hair because it can smooth out the imperfections in the hair shaft.
Panthenol (sometimes referred to as pro-vitamin B5) is a popular humectant in personal care products due to its ability to attract and hold moisture.


When topically applied, Panthenol converts to pantothenic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance within the body.
Research also shows promise for panthenol’s ability to reduce sensitivity-induced redness in skin.
Topically applied panthenol in amounts between 1-5% has been reported to aid in healing and barrier repair.


It’s important to clarify that even though panthenol is the alcohol derivative of pantothenic acid, but it is a completely gentle and non-drying form of alcohol, unlike SD or denatured alcohol, which are known to be damaging to skin.
Panthenol is also widely used in hair care products and can be found in makeup products, such as powders, mascara, and lipstick.


Panthenol is a precursor of pantothenic acid (or vitamin B5), a key ingredient in many skincare cosmetics in recent years.
Panthenol is a humectant meaning it holds and binds water, and these properties mean that it is ideal when it comes to keeping water in the skin.
Panthenol also works as an emollient which means it can moisturize and soothe the skin, as well as help, protect it from environmental factors and skin stresses.


Panthenol, on the other hand, is frequently added to personal products due to its effects on the skin.
Panthenol's usually used in the form of a transparent viscous liquid, but it can also be used as a white powder.
You can find panthenol listed on labels as pantothenol, D-pantothenol alcohol, dexpanthenol, or provitamin B5.


Panthenol is used as a moisturizer and humectant in cosmetics and personal care products.
Panthenol is found in lotions, ointments, nasal sprays, eye drops, cleaning solutions for contact lenses, etc.
Panthenol is used as a moisturizer, soothing and softening agent.


Panthenol's main job in skincare products is to moisturise the skin.
Panthenol’s a humectant meaning that it can help the skin to attract water and then hold onto it.
There is also research showing that Panthenol can help our skin to produce more lovely lipids that are important for a strong and healthy skin barrier.


Another great thing about Panthenol is that it has anti-inflammatory and skin protecting abilities.
Research also shows that Panthenol might be useful for wound healing as it promotes fibroblast (nice type of cells in our skin that produce skin-firming collagen) proliferation.


If that wasn’t enough Panthenol is also useful in nail and hair care products.
A study shows that a nail treatment liquide with 2% Panthenol could effectively get into the nail and significantly increase the hydration of it.
Panthenol is used for the hair the hydration effect is also true there.


Panthenol might make your hair softer, and more elastic and helps to comb your hair more easily.
Panthenol is used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products as a moisturizer and to improve wound healing.
In pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and personal-care products, panthenol is a moisturizer and humectant, Panthenol is used in ointments, lotions, shampoos, nasal sprays, eye drops, lozenges, and cleaning solutions for contact lenses.


In ointments, Panthenol is used for the treatment of sunburns, mild burns, minor skin injuries, and disorders (in concentrations of up to 2–5%).
Panthenol improves hydration, reduces itching and inflammation of the skin, improves skin elasticity, and accelerates epidermal wounds' rate of healing.
For this purpose, Panthenol is sometimes combined with allantoin.

HOW TO USE PANTHENOL?
Panthenol has positive effects on body and hair care.
Panthenol is important to get enough from food to maintain the body's energy balance.
If foods containing vitamin B5 are not consumed enough, nutritional supplements and creams containing panthenol can be supported.
Panthenol can be used in cream form by applying it on the skin.
Creams can start to show their effect by being absorbed from the skin in a short time.
Panthenol can also be taken into the body through nutritional and vitamin supplements.



IS PANTHENOL A SAFE SUBSTANCE?
Panthenol can be safely taken into the body topically (application on the skin) and through nutritional supplements.
Panthenol is a compound that can be beneficial for the body if the person does not have any known allergic conditions to vitamin B5 and is used at normal levels.

Both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Commission on Cosmetic Ingredients have approved Panthenol for use in cosmetics.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) classifies panthenol as “possibly safe” for general topical applications and nasal sprays.
And Panthenol’s listed as “likely safe” for topical use by children.

The FDA currently lists panthenol in its widely known “Generally Regarded as Safe” database for when Panthenol’s ingested as a food ingredient, or as a supplement.
But remember that ingesting Panthenol or panothenic acid in food or as a supplement is very different than using it on your skin or hair.
Although Panthenol’s widely considered beneficial as a supplement, it’s only classified as “likely safe” for topical use on the skin, hair, and nails.



WHAT DOES PANTHENOL DO?
Panthenol can help skin and hair feel better.
Panthenol moisturizes the skin and gives vitality to the hair.
Thanks to its healing power, Panthenol can reduce hair breakage.

Panthenol can provide softness and resistance to the hair.
Panthenol can make hair styling easier by trapping moisture in the hair.
Thus, Panthenol helps to protect the hair from the negative effects of the environment.
In addition to these, Panthenol can help strengthen the fingernails and toenails.

Thus, you can have healthier and break-resistant nails.
Thanks to its positive effects on skin, hair and nails, panthenol can be included in many cosmetic products.
With aging, the skin loses its elasticity by losing moisture.
Panthenol can protect the moisture balance in the skin and cause the negative effects of aging to appear later.



WHAT DOES PANTHENOL DO FOR THE SKIN?
Here's why skin care brands use panthenol in their formulas:

1.
Panthenol acts as a moisturizer.
Panthenol primarily functions as a moisturizer.
Panthenol is a liquid at room temperature, so it's used as a humectant and emollient in skin care products.
(Humectants attract moisture, while emollients fill in cracks with lipids.)

This reduces water loss, keeping the skin soft and smooth.
Panthenol also restores and protects the skin barrier, which is essential for managing general dryness and skin sensitivity.
Scientists are still learning how Panthenol exactly works, but they think its role in enzymatic processes—which is vital for skin barrier function—plays a part.


2.
Panthenol reduces inflammation.
As Panthenol converts into pantothenic acid (which then makes coenzyme A), it also helps decrease inflammation.
That's because coenzyme A is necessary for the production of steroids and fatty acids, which soothe inflammation.
This anti-inflammatory effect makes Panthenol useful for alleviating symptoms of skin irritation, including itching, scaling, dryness, and roughness.
In fact, many sunscreens and after-sun products contain panthenol for this reason.


3.
Panthenol supports wound healing.
By mediating inflammation, panthenol can also help the wound healing process.
Panthenol's been shown to decrease erythem, or skin reddening, when applied to wounds in the top layer of the skin.
Panthenol's ability to attract moisture (and control water loss) also encourages skin regeneration, further supporting wound recovery.



BENEFITS OF PANTHENOL FOR HAIR:
Panthenol is a natural humectant and emollient, experts agree that panthenol has multiple benefits for use in hair.
*Retains moisture:
Panthenol is a desirable skincare and haircare ingredient because it acts as a humectant, drawing in moisture.
Panthenol draws moisture from the environment and skin to where it is needed most.

*Smooths strands:
Panthenol acts as an emollient, smoothing cracks in rough skin and hair.
Panthenol is also good for rough textured hair because it can smooth out the imperfections in the hair shaft.

*Panthenol acts as an anti-inflammatory:
Panthenol in the body is converted to vitamin B5, which has anti-inflammatory properties that aid in the reparative process of damaged hair.

*Panthenol can help with thinning hair:
a study looking to treat thinning hair, panthenol showed as a promising ingredient to help contribute to help to mitigate the effects of thinning hair, and D-panthenol showed an increase in cell viability, supporting hair growth stimulation.

*Balances:
Panthenol can also help balance hair's moisture content to improve condition and suppleness and is a brilliant emollient, which also helps to improve hair's suppleness.

*Strengthens:
Panthenol is a strengthening agent that penetrates deep into the cortex.

*Hair Type Considerations:
The experts agree that Panthenol generally works for most hair types, making it a great universal ingredient in hair care.
Safe to use daily, Panthenol's often found in hair products across the board, including shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in product.

Products containing just 1% of panthenol can rapidly hydrate skin, resulting in a more supple feel and appearance.

This means that panthenol is ideal for skin types that are experiencing particularly stressful environmental factors, such as harsh climates, air conditioning, or central heating.
Panthenol’s ability to combat transepidermal loss makes it perfect for dealing with the stresses that these types of factors cause.

*Panthenol helps maintain the skin’s barrier:
Panthenol’s emollient properties help to maintain a healthy skin barrier.
Your skin barrier consists of natural oils and lipids that Panthenol protects your skin from water loss, allergens, and bacteria.



WHAT ARE THE PANTHENOL BENEFITS TO THE SKIN?
Panthenol is a substance that stands out with its benefits.
Panthenol can contribute to the healing of tissues such as skin, hair, eyes, nose and nails.
Panthenol can be added to the content of personal care products due to its moisturizing and skin soothing effects.
The benefits of Panthenol to the skin can be listed as follows:

*Can Remove Wrinkles Caused by Aging:
As age progresses, the moisture of the skin decreases and the tissues begin to sag.
In addition, the lines on the skin increase and may deepen.
As the skin loses Panthenol's elasticity, the effects of aging begin to be seen.
Panthenol restores the skin's natural moisture.
Thus, the elasticity of the skin increases and a smooth appearance can be achieved.

*May Contribute to Tissue Repair by Accelerating Wound Healing:
One of the contributions of Panthenol for the skin is that it supports tissue repair.
Panthenol may also contribute to the healing of skin diseases such as eczema.

*May Prevent Water Loss by Moisturizing the Skin:
The skin may lose moisture due to aging, environmental factors, and the harmful effects of sun rays.
As a result, delay in wound healing and various skin diseases may occur.
In order to maintain the moisture balance of the body, Panthenol is necessary to get enough vitamin B5 to the body by eating a healthy diet.
Panthenol may have a healing effect in skin diseases such as dry skin, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis.

*May Protect Tissues Thanks to Its Anti-Inflammatory Properties:
Inflammatory conditions may occur due to skin injuries, sunburn, irritation.
Panthenol, which has anti-inflammatory properties, can act as a barrier by protecting the skin.
Panthenol can increase fat synthesis and new cell formation in the skin.
Thus, Panthenol can help reduce problems such as itching, redness, and dryness.

The new calcium carbonate inhibitor is PolyAmino PolyEther Methylene Phosphonate2 (PAPEMP). One of the particular advantages of the PAPEMP molecule is its exceptional calcium tolerance (Table 2). Calcium tolerance is a measure of a chemical compound’s ability to remain soluble in the presence of calcium ions (Ca2+) under both high pH and high temperature, such as in geothermal brines. As pH and temperature increases, calcium tolerance decreases rapidly for traditional CaCO3 threshold inhibitors (as shown in Figure 1), e.g., 1-hydroxy ethylidene 1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP), amino tri (methylene phosphonic acid) (AMP), and polyacrylic acid. The X-axis in this figure is the amount of HEDP as PPM needed to form precipitation in a water containing 10,000 PPM of Calcium ions. The data for temperature curve was collected at pH 9, while the pH curve represents data at 250°F. At higher temperature and/or higher pH, it requires Poly amino polyether methylene phosphonate (PAPEMP) is a very effective inhibitor in preventing CaCO3 precipitation. The extraordinary affinity of PAPEMP towards CaCO3 surfaces and its excellent tolerance of calcium materials make this polymer excellent in inhibiting the growth of CaCO3 crystal. Amjad et al. have extensively studied phosphonate-based polymer performance in cold water. They have studied the effectiveness of phosphate and phosphonate polymers in stabilized and all-organic cooling water treatment facilities. This study reported that these polymers are capable of performing a dual function. Firstly, they control the thickness of the calcium phosphate and phosphonate membrane on the metal surface. Secondly, they prevent the precipitation of the calcium phosphate and phosphonate salts in the recirculating water. Another study conducted by the same research group demonstrated the performance of sulphonic-acid-containing terpolymer for controlling the growth of calcium phosphonates and carbonate scale. It showed that these polymers improved the control of calcium phosphonate and carbonate in highly stressed cooling water systems [28]. Wang et al. also conducted a similar study in which they have reported the inhibition of CaCO3 by a phosphonate-terminated poly(maleic-co-sulfonate) polymeric inhibitor. This study showed that this inhibitor is capable of controlling CaCO3 scale Polyamino Polyether Methylene Phosphonate (PAPEMP) Investigation of CaCO3 scale inhibition by PAA, ATMP and PAPEMP Calcium carbonate scale inhibition by three inhibitors, polyacrylic acid (PAA), aminotrimethylenephosphonic acid (ATMP) and polyamino polyether methylenephosphonate (PAPEMP), has been investigated by the bubbling method, and the calcium carbonate scales formed in the absence and presence of inhibitors have been examined by SEM and XRD. It was found that ATMP shows “threshold effect” in the inhibition of CaCO3 scale, and the inhibition behavior of PAPEMP is similar to that of PAA: the “threshold effect” is not observed. In the presence of inhibitors, the normal growth of calcium carbonate is disturbed, and in the presence of PAPEMP, the scale morphology is similar to that in the presence of ATMP. The vaterite phase is effectively stabilized kinetically in the presence of PAA; ATMP takes second place, and PAPEMP can hardly stabilize kinetically the vaterite phase In recent years, the percentage of oil production from more challenging environments has increased. In addition to the numerous engineering and logistical difficulties of working at increased depth, temperature and pressure these production zones provide a harsh environment deleterious to the performance of some critical oilfield chemicals. Scale inhibitors are one class of oil field chemicals which are deployed through squeeze treatments into the formation and/or continuous downhole injection for protection of production tubulars. As well depths continue to increase, the exposure time of the injected chemicals also increases. With temperatures in the range of 180-200 °C and pressures exceeding 10,000 psi, the effect of elevated temperature and pressure on scale inhibitor performance is a critical parameter to evaluate using chemical analytical techniques and product performance methods. Another trend leading to increased thermal exposure is the use of thermal enhanced recovery techniques. Scale inhibitors are exposed to high temperatures in operations such as steam flooding and steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD). In this study, a range of chemicals have been evaluated for their short and medium-term thermal stability at 180 and 200 °C. The primary application of this data is for downhole injection and squeeze treatments prior to adsorption. Inhibitor chemical types include sulfonated polycarboxylic acid (SPCA), fluorescent tagged sulfonated polycarboxylic acid (FSPCA), phosphorous tagged sulfonated polycarboxylic acid (PSPCA), sulfonated polyacrylocarboxylic acid (SPAC), polyacrylic acid (PAA), polyvinyl sulfonate (PVS), polyamino polyether methylene phosphonate (PAPEMP), bis(hexamethylene)triamine pentakis(methylene phosphonic acid) (BHTPMP) and diethylenetriamine pentakis(methylene phosphonic acid) (DTPMP). In most cases the sodium or potassium salts of the inhibitors are used. The chemical effect of temperature on scale inhibitors is measured through molecular weight determination, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), pH change, and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) analysis. The performance of these inhibitors is measured under static and dynamic conditions for inhibition of barium sulfate scale. These results help to further the knowledge of inhibitor degradation due to thermal effects and indicate the direction for further product development of thermally stable scale inhibitors. Calcium sulfate dihydrate (gypsum) scale inhibition by PAA, PAPEMP, and PAA/PAPEMP blend Z. Amjad, R. T. Landgraf and J. L. Penn Walsh University, Division of Mathematics and Sciences, North Canton OH 44720, USA Abstract: The effects of poly(acrylic acid), PAA, polyamino polyether methylene phosphonic acid, PAPEMP, and PAA/PAPEMP blend on calcium sulfate dihydrate (gypsum) are reported in this paper. It has been found that gypsum inhibition by PAA increases with increasing PAA concentration. Among the various phoshonates (i.e., aminotris(methylene phosphonic acid), AMP; hydroxyphosphono acetic acid, HPA; hydroxyethylidene 1,1-diphosphonic acid, HEDP; 2-phosphonobutane 1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid, PBTC; and polyether polyamino phosphonic acid, PAPEP) evaluated, PAPEMP shows the best inhibition for gypsum precipitation. It has also been observed that presence of PAPEMP exhibits synergistic effect on the performance of PAA. Results on calcium ion compatibility of various phosphonates show that PAPEMP compared to other phosphonates tested show higher tolerance to calcium ions. Keywords: calcium sulfate dihydrate, precipitation, inhibition, polymer, phosphonates Properties : PAPE is a new kind of water treatment chemicals. PAPE has good scale and corrosion inhibition ability. Because more than one ployethylene glycol group is introduced into the molecular, the scale and corrosion inhibition for calcium scale is improved. PAPE has good inhibition effect for barium and strontium scales. PAPE has good scale inhibition effect for calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate, it can mix well with polycarboxylic acid, organophoronic acid, phosphate and zinc salt. PAPE can be used as scale inhibitor for oilfield (recommended as alternatives of Nalco Visco 953) and industrial cool water system. Deposition of unwanted materials, including mineral scales, suspended matter, microbiological growth, and corrosion products, continues to plague the operation of industrial water systems. This article presents performance data on polyamino polyether methylene phosphonic acid (PAPEMP) on various mineral scales commonly encountered in boiler, cooling, desalination, geothermal, gas, and oil systems. Water that is available for domestic and industrial applications typically contains many impurities. These impurities are generally classified in five broad categories: • Dissolved inorganic compounds (i.e., carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and fluorides of calcium, magnesium, barium, and strontium; small amounts of copper [Cu], iron [Fe], and manganese [Mn]); and other substances • Dissolved gases (e.g., oxygen [O2], nitrogen [N2], carbon dioxide [CO2], and hydrogen sulfide [H2S]) • Suspended matter (e.g., clay, silt, fat, and oil) • Soluble organic compounds (e.g., humic acid, fulvic acid, and tannic acid) • Microorganisms (e.g., algae, bacteria, and fungi) The accumulation of unwanted deposits on equipment surfaces is a phenomenon that occurs in virtually all processes in which untreated water is heated. The deposition of these materials, especially on heat exchanger surfaces in boiler, cooling, geothermal, and distillation systems, can cause a number of operational problems such as plugged pipes and pumps, inefficient use of water treatment chemicals, increased operational costs, lost production due to system downtime, and ultimately heat exchanger failure. Greater water conservation has been a driver for operating industrial water systems at higher concentration cycles, which increases the potential for deposit buildup on heat exchanger surfaces. Operating industrial water systems under stressed conditions demands a better understanding of the feed and recirculating systems’ water chemistry as well as the development of innovative additives and technological approaches for controlling scale, deposit, corrosion, and biofouling. The most promising scale control method among various approaches involves adding substoichiometric dosages, typically a few ppm, of water-soluble additives to the feedwater. Additives commonly used in water treatment formulation fall into two categories: • Dissolved inorganic compounds (i.e., carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and fluorides of calcium, magnesium, barium, and strontium; small amounts of copper [Cu], iron [Fe], and manganese [Mn] ions; and other substances) • Polymeric (e.g., homopolymers of acrylic acid, maleic acid, itaconic acid, aspartic acid, and copolymers containing monomers of different functional groups) Although there are many phosphonates available, three of the most commonly used phosphonates in water treatment formulations are aminotrismethylene phosphonic acid (AMP); 1-hydroxyethylidine, 1,-1 diphosphonic acid (HEDP); and 2-phosphono-butane 1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid (PBTC). However, under certain pH, concentration, and temperature conditions, phosphonates have been shown to precipitate in the presence of calcium ions. The precipitation of calcium phosphonate salts not only creates fouling of heat exchanger and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane surfaces, it also decreases the solution concentration of a phosphonate to such an extent that severe calcium carbonate (CaCO3) scaling can occur. The focus of this study is to evaluate the performance of polyamino polyether methylene phosphonic acid (PAPEMP) as an inhibitor for various scales (e.g., CaCO3, calcium sulfate dihydrate [CaSO4•2H2O], and calcium phosphate [Ca3(PO4)2]) and a stabilization agent for Fe(III) or Fe3+ ions. Experimental Protocols All chemicals were obtained from commercial sources. They include AMP, HEDP, PBTC, 2-hydroxyphosphono acetic acid (HPA), PAPEMP, and polyacrylic acid (PAA). Detailed procedures for reagents solution preparation; percent inhibition (%I) calculation for calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO4•2H2O), CaCO3, Ca3(PO4)2, and Fe3+ stabilization; and instruments used are reported elsewhere.3-6 Table 1 lists the inhibitors tested. PAPEMP production process consists of 4 steps. Phosphorus acid is input into the reactor and its pH is adjusted by HCl. Polyetheramine is instilled and the reaction starts while the reactor is heated. Formaldehyde is input a few hours later. The reactor will be further heated and steamed for more hours. Usage:The good adaption to different situations enables PAPEMP widely used in boiler, cooling water system and oilfield reinjection water as antiscalant and corrosion inhibitor. For the same reason, PAPEMP is also applied in RO and multistep flash system. Recommend dosage is 5-100 ml/L. Unlike other organophosphonates, there is no optimum dosage for it. Higher the dosage, better the effect. Besides, PAPEMP works as a nutrient absorber in agriculture. It can also replace those more expensive color transfer inhibitors (eg. yellow turnback inhibitor) like EDTA, NTA, and DTPA in textile dyeing. Calcium carbonate scale inhibition by three inhibitors, polyacrylic acid (PAA), aminotrimethylenephosphonic acid (ATMP) and polyamino polyether methylenephosphonate (PAPEMP), has been investigated by the bubbling method, and the calcium carbonate scales formed in the absence and presence of inhibitors have been examined by SEM and XRD. It was found that ATMP shows “threshold effect” in the inhibition of CaCO3 scale, and the inhibition behavior of PAPEMP is similar to that of PAA: the “threshold effect” is not observed. In the presence of inhibitors, the normal growth of calcium carbonate is disturbed, and in the presence of PAPEMP, the scale morphology is similar to that in the presence of ATMP. The vaterite phase is effectively stabilized kinetically in the presence of PAA; ATMP takes second place, and PAPEMP can hardly stabilize kinetically the vaterite phase. Poly-amino poly-ether methylenephosphonic acid (PAPEMP)-containing corrosion and scale inhibitor Abstract The invention provides a poly-amino poly-ether methylenephosphonic acid (PAPEMP)-containing corrosion and scale inhibitor, belongs to the technical field of water treatment and relates to a corrosion and scale inhibitor. The corrosion and scale inhibitor comprises PAPEMP, a zinc salt, a dispersant, a copper corrosion inhibitor and water. The corrosion and scale inhibitor has a reasonable formula, has good use effects and a low production cost, is suitable for an open circulated cooling water system and is especially suitable for a high-hardness, high-basicity and high-pH circulated cooling water system. PAPEMP is excellent to the scale-inhibiting properties of calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, effectively can suppresses the formation of silicon dirt simultaneously, and there is the effect of satisfactory stability metal ion as zinc, manganese, iron. PAPEMP is a new kind of water treatment agent. XF-335S (PAPEMP) has high chelation and dispersion effects, high value of calcium tolerance, and good scale inhibition effects. PAPEMP can be used as scale and corrosion inhibitor in circulating cool water system and oilfield refill water system in situations of high hardness, high alkali and high pH value. PAPEMP has excellent scale inhibition ability to calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate and calcium phosphate. PAPEMP can efficiently inhibit the formation of silica scale, stabilize metal ions such as Zn, Mn and Fe. PAPEMP can be used as scale inhibitor for reverse osmosis system and multistepflash vaporization system in which high salt concentration, high turbidity and high temperature are usually encountered (such as high temperature and high turbidity in coal vaporization system), accessory agent for woven & dyeing, as alternatives of EDTA, DTPA and NTA . Calcium carbonate has been identified as the main problem associated with industrial cooling water scaling or deposition. The formation of calcium carbonate scale in industrial cooling water system has been known to pose significant problems to the industrial processes. The calcium carbonate scales or deposits will serve as a heat insulating layer that reduces heat transfer efficiency and hence require higher energy consumption to attain the desired cooling or heating effect (Prisciandaro et al., 2013). Therefore, it is vital to ensure that heat transfer surfaces on industrial cooling water systems are relatively free from calcium carbonate scaling problems. Most of the research works on crystal growth inhibition of industrial cooling water treatment program were conducted by a few multinational water treatment companies at their own research center. This valuable information is unfortunately not available to others due to trade secret. As such smaller water treatment companies that have limited resources have limited information in developing the right formulation in their cooling water treatment program. This study aims to provide such information so that it can be made available to enhance the technical competency of calcium carbonate scale inhibition. Calcium carbonate crystal growth inhibition by the simplest form of phosphate-containing compounds, orthophosphate, has been well studied by several researchers and orthophosphate concentration in the range of several milligrams per liter have been found to retard the crystal growth in seeded solutions. Adsorption of orthophosphate on calcium carbonate scale has been studied and found to change the structure of calcium carbonate crystal lattice. In another study, CaHPO4 was found to be the responsible species that absorbs on the calcium carbonate surface and inhibits further precipitation. The use of polyphosphates for calcium carbonate crystal growth inhibition was also investigated and sodium tri-polyphosphate was found to be the strongest inhibitor in a mono polyphosphate formulation followed by sodium pyrophosphate and sodium hexametaphosphate. However, orthophosphate and polyphosphates were excluded in this study, driven by market trend towards low or non-phosphorus compounds used for such application in consideration of environmental issues such as eutrophication associated with phosphorus compounds. Calcium carbonate scale inhibition by organophosphorus compounds such as amino tris(methylene phosphonic acid) (ATMP), ethylene-diamine tetra(methylenephosphonic acid) (EDTMP), hexamethylenediamine tetra(methylenephosphonic acid) (HDTMP), diethylenetriamine penta(methylenephosphonic acid) (DTPMP) and PAPEMP were also being investigated. Results shown that the phosphonic group number and the methylene chain length play a vital role in the effectiveness of the inhibitors. Although the application of most organophosphorus compound contributes lesser phosphorus to the environment in relative term to orthophosphate and polyphosphates, some of the commonly used compounds such as ATMP still contains considerable amount of phosphorus (31 % as Phosphorus) and 1-hydroxyethane 1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) (30 % as Phosphorus). Owing to the environmental consideration, this study has selected non-phosphorous polymeric compound represented by PMA and AA/MA copolymer and low phosphorus contributor PAPEMP (about 20 % as Phosphorus) for the tests. The inhibition of calcium carbonate crystal growth by PMA, PAPEMP and AA/MA copolymer was investigated via static beaker tests at typical water chemistries encountered in cooling water system. his study provides a method that enables the evaluation of scale inhibitors at the practical dosage level and economically viable range at various water chemistries encountered in the market place, thus providing a practical and useful solution and background formulation information to water treatment professionals to mitigate industrial cooling water scaling and deposition problems for a given water chemistries and condition. The desired inhibition efficiency of minimum 90 % was set up to evaluate and compare the performance of the above inhibitors.
PARA BENZOQUINONE
PARA BENZOQUINONE

DESCRIPTION:


p-Benzoquinone, also known as para-quinone or 1,4-Benzoquinone, is used as a precursor to hydroquinone.
Ungraded products are indicative of a grade suitable for general industrial use or research purposes and typically are not suitable for human consumption or therapeutic use.

CAS Number: 106-51-4
EC Number: 203-405-2
Molecular Formula: C6H4O2



Para-benzoquinone appears as a yellowish-colored crystalline solid with a pungent, irritating odor.
Para-benzoquinone is Poisonous by ingestion or inhalation of vapors.
Para-benzoquinone May severely damage skin, eyes and mucous membranes.
Para-benzoquinone is Used to make dyes and as a photographic chemical.

Para-benzoquinone is the simplest member of the class of 1,4-benzoquinones, obtained by the formal oxidation of hydroquinone to the corresponding diketone.
Para-benzoquinone is a metabolite of benzene.
Para-benzoquinone has a role as a cofactor, a human xenobiotic metabolite and a mouse metabolite.
Quinone is a metabolite found in or produced by Escherichia coli





p-Benzoquinone (PBQ) is a cyclic conjugated diketone.
Its high-resolution photoelectron spectrum has been reported.
The visible and near ultraviolet spectra of PBQ have been recorded and analyzed.

Its addition as coagent has been reported to enhance the crosslinking rate of polypropylene initiated by the pyrolysis of peroxides.
Its impact on hemoglobin (Hb) has been investigated based on immunoblots and mass spectral analysis of a smoker′s blood

Para-benzoquinone, commonly known as para-quinone, is a chemical compound with the formula C6H4O2.
In a pure state, p-Benzoquinone forms bright-yellow crystals with a characteristic irritating odor, resembling that of chlorine, bleach, and hot plastic or formaldehyde.
This six-membered ring compound is the oxidized derivative of p-Benzoquinone.

The molecule is multifunctional: it exhibits properties of a ketone, being able to form oximes; an oxidant, forming the dihydroxy derivative; and an alkene, undergoing addition reactions, especially those typical for α,β-unsaturated ketones.
Para-benzoquinone is sensitive toward both strong mineral acids and alkali, which cause condensation and decomposition of the compound.

PREPARATION OF PARA -BENZOQUINONE:
p-Benzoquinone is prepared industrially by oxidation of hydroquinone, which can be obtained by several routes.
One route involves oxidation of diisopropylbenzene and the Hock rearrangement.
The net reaction can be represented as follows:

C6H4(CHMe2)2 + 3 O2 → C6H4O2 + 2 OCMe2 + H2O
The reaction proceeds via the bis(hydroperoxide) and the hydroquinone.
Acetone is a coproduct.

Another major process involves the direct hydroxylation of phenol by acidic hydrogen peroxide: C6H5OH + H2O2 → C6H4(OH)2 + H2O Both hydroquinone and catechol are produced.
Subsequent oxidation of the hydroquinone gives the quinone.

Quinone was originally prepared industrially by oxidation of aniline, for example by manganese dioxide.
This method is mainly practiced in PRC where environmental regulations are more relaxed.

Oxidation of hydroquinone is facile.
One such method makes use of hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizer and iodine or an iodine salt as a catalyst for the oxidation occurring in a polar solvent; e.g. isopropyl alcohol.

When heated to near its melting point, 1,4-benzoquinone sublimes, even at atmospheric pressure, allowing for an effective purification.
Impure samples are often dark-colored due to the presence of quinhydrone, a dark green 1:1 charge-transfer complex of quinone with hydroquinone


STRUCTURE AND REDOX:
C–C and C–O bond distances in benzoquinone (Q), its 1e reduced derivative (Q−), and hydroquinone (H2Q).
Benzoquinone is a planar molecule with localized, alternating C=C, C=O, and C–C bonds.
Reduction gives the semiquinone anion C6H4O2−}, which adopts a more delocalized structure.
Further reduction coupled to protonation gives the hydroquinone, wherein the C6 ring is fully delocalized.

REACTIONS AND APPLICATIONS OF PARA-BENZOQUINONE:
Quinone is mainly used as a precursor to hydroquinone, which is used in photography and rubber manufacture as a reducing agent and antioxidant.
Benzoquinonium is a skeletal muscle relaxant, ganglion blocking agent that is made from benzoquinone.

Organic synthesis of p-Benzoquinone:
p-Benzoquinone is used as a hydrogen acceptor and oxidant in organic synthesis.
p-Benzoquinone serves as a dehydrogenation reagent.
p-Benzoquinone is also used as a dienophile in Diels Alder reactions.

Benzoquinone reacts with acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid to give the triacetate of hydroxyquinol.
This reaction is called the Thiele reaction or Thiele–Winter reaction after Johannes Thiele, who first described it in 1898, and after Ernst Winter, who further described its reaction mechanism in 1900.
An application is found in this step of the total synthesis of Metachromin A:

An application of the Thiele reaction, involving a benzoquinone derivative.
Benzoquinone is also used to suppress double-bond migration during olefin metathesis reactions.

An acidic potassium iodide solution reduces a solution of benzoquinone to hydroquinone, which can be reoxidized back to the quinone with a solution of silver nitrate.

Due to its ability to function as an oxidizer, p-Benzoquinone can be found in methods using the Wacker-Tsuji oxidation, wherein a palladium salt catalyzes the conversion of an alkene to a ketone.
This reaction is typically carried out using pressurized oxygen as the oxidizer, but benzoquinone can sometimes preferred.
p-Benzoquinone is also used as a reagent in some variants on Wacker oxidations.

p-Benzoquinone is used in the synthesis of Bromadol and related analogs.

2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) is a stronger oxidant and dehydrogenation agent than 1,4-benzoquinone.
Chloranil 1,4-C6Cl4O2 is another potent oxidant and dehydrogenation agent.
Monochloro-p-benzoquinone is yet another but milder oxidant.

METABOLISM OF PARA-BENZOQUINONE:
p-Benzoquinone is a toxic metabolite found in human blood and can be used to track exposure to benzene or mixtures containing benzene and benzene compounds, such as petrol.
The compound can interfere with cellular respiration, and kidney damage has been found in animals receiving severe exposure.
p-Benzoquinone is excreted in its original form and also as variations of its own metabolite, hydroquinone.

Safety:
p-Benzoquinone is able to stain skin dark brown, cause erythema (redness, rashes on skin) and lead on to localized tissue necrosis.
p-Benzoquinone is particularly irritating to the eyes and respiratory system.
Its ability to sublime at commonly encountered temperatures allows for a greater airborne exposure risk than might be expected for a room-temperature solid.

IARC has found insufficient evidence to comment on the compound's carcinogenicity, but has noted that it can easily pass into the bloodstream and that it showed activity in depressing bone marrow production in mice and can inhibit protease enzymes involved in cellular apoptosis.

PARABENS
Parabens are chemicals that are commonly used as preservatives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products.
Parabens are usually easy to identify by their name, such as methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, or ethylparaben.


INCI Name: Methylparaben Propylparaben Butylparaben
Ingredient origins: Hydrocarbons
Role: Preservative



SYNONYMS:
methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, propyl 4-hydroxylbenzoate



Parabens are chemicals that are commonly used as preservatives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products.
Chemically, Parabens are a series of parahydroxybenzoates or esters of parahydroxybenzoic acid (also known as 4-hydroxybenzoic acid).
Research is being conducted to evaluate the potential health implications of Parabens usage.


People can also be exposed to parabens by eating foods and beverages that do not just contain parabens but are also preserved with them.
In the 1970s, propylparaben was designated as “generally recognized as safe” for addition to food up to 0.1 percent.
Parabens are a group of chemicals most commonly used as: preservatives, antimicrobials, flavour enhancers, and fragrance ingredients.


Parabens are a family of ingredients used as preservatives in personal care products.
‘Paraben’ refers to many slightly different paraben forms, some of which can be found in nature.
Parabens are a type of synthetic preservative used to prolong the shelf life of certain ingredients.


By preventing bacteria and mold growth, Parabens allow products to survive for months—even years—in our bathrooms.
(Microorganisms love moisture, so without some sort of preservative, the shampoo sitting for weeks in your humid shower would turn all sorts of funky.)
Parabens are usually easy to identify by their name, such as methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, or ethylparaben.


Other names for these are methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate and propyl 4-hydroxylbenzoate.
Parabens are actually several distinct chemicals with a similar molecular structure.
Several are common in a wide array cosmetic and personal care products: ethylparaben, butylparaben, isobutylparaben, isopropylparaben, methylparaben and propylparaben.


Methylparaben and propylparaben are the most common of these.
Parabens are most common in personal care products that contain significant amounts of water such as shampoos, conditioners, lotions and facial and shower cleansers and scrubs because they discourage the growth of microbes.


While the Cosmetic Ingredient Review recommends concentration limits for single (up to 0.4%) and total paraben concentrations (up to 0.8%) in a single product, these recommendations do not account for exposure to parabens from several products by a single individual.
Parabens are found in nearly all urine samples from U.S. adults regardless of ethnic, socioeconomic or geographic backgrounds.


In one biomonitoring study, adolescents and adult females had higher levels of methylparaben and propylparaben in their urine than did males of similar ages.
Parabens are not water soluble and can penetrate the skin.


As a result, repeated application of a product or multiple products containing parabens could mean almost continuous exposure.
The ubiquity of parabens in personal care products makes this a reasonable scenario.
Parabens enter the body through dermal absorption, ingestion and inhalation, and can enhance the actions of the natural estrogen known as estradiol.


Parabens are a group of compounds widely used as preservatives for their antimicrobial properties.
Parabens are a group of controversial preservatives that include butylparaben, isobutylparaben, propylparaben, methylparaben, and ethylparaben.
All of these were at one time the most widely used group of preservatives used in cosmetics.


Parabens were so popular because of their gentle, non-sensitizing, and highly effective profile in comparison to other preservatives but also because they were derived naturally from plants, a rare phenomenon for a preservative.
Parabens are found in plants in the form of p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA), a chemical that breaks down to become parabens for a plant’s own protection.


Parabens that are manufactured for consumables and personal care products are identical to those found in nature.
The most common types of Parabens are methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, isopropylparaben and isobutylparaben.



USES and APPLICATIONS of PARABENS:
Parabens are effective preservatives in many types of formulas.
These compounds, and their salts, Parabens are used primarily for their bactericidal and fungicidal properties.
Parabens are found in shampoos, commercial moisturizers, shaving gels, personal lubricants, topical/parenteral pharmaceuticals, sun-tan products, makeup, and toothpaste.


Parabens are also used as food preservatives.
Parabens are additionally found in pharmaceutical products such as topical treatments for wounds.
These treatments help heal wounds by keeping the skin moist and preventing infection.


The antimicrobial properties of parabens play a role in the effectiveness of the treatment.
This application is helpful for those who have chronic wounds and need to prevent infections as much as possible.
Parabens are a group of chemicals that are widely used as preservatives in cosmetics and personal care products such as deodorants, shower gels and body creams.


Parabens are preservatives commonly used in personal care products.
Preservatives are used in to inhibit the growth of microbes or bacteria, making the product safe to use and also extending its shelf lifei.
The three most common parabens in use are methylparaben, propylparaben and butylparaben.


These parabens are known to be eye and skin irritantsii, and have also been linked to breast cancer.
Parabens are not carcinogenic themselves, but they are endocrine disruptors, meaning they have an effect on the normal functioning of hormones within the bodyiii.


Parabens mimic oestrogen within the body, and increased oestrogen is involved with the increase in breast cells, which can also mean the increase in cancerous breast cellsiv.
Parabens are easily absorbed into the skin, being introduced into the system even after just one application.


This is a cause for concern considering Parabens are very often used in products that come into direct contact with the skin such body lotions and deodorants.
We don't use parabens at ecostore but we do still require the use of preservatives to keep our products free of microbes and able to be on the shelf for longer.


Parabens are the most widely used preservative in cosmetics.
Parabens are also used as fragrance ingredients, but consumers won’t find that listed on the label.
Fragrance recipes are considered trade secrets, so manufacturers are not required to disclose fragrance chemicals in the list of ingredients (see also Fragrance/Parfum).


An estimated 75 to 90 per cent of cosmetics contain parabens (typically at very low levels).
Parabens are synthetic chemicals that are used as preservatives in a variety of products, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food.
As preservatives, parabens give products a longer shelf-life and prevent harmful bacteria and mold from growing in the products, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).


Parabens are a family of related chemicals that are commonly used as preservatives in cosmetic products.
Preservatives may be used in cosmetics to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria and mold, in order to protect both the products and consumers.
Parabens used most commonly in cosmetics are methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, and ethylparaben.


Product ingredient labels typically list more than one paraben in a product, and parabens are often used in combination with other types of preservatives to better protect against a broad range of microorganisms.
Parabens are chemicals that are used as preservatives to ward off substances — fungi, yeast, and bacteria, among others — that shorten the products' shelf life.


You can find Parabens in many of the products that you use every day.
Parabens are preservatives used in a wide variety of personal care products and foods to prevent the growth of microbes.
These endocrine-disrupting chemicals can be absorbed through skin, blood and the digestive system


Parabens are commonly added to cosmetics and other personal care products to prevent the growth of mold, bacteria and yeasts.
Methylparaben and propylparaben are the most commonly used parabens.
Parabens have been widespread in personal care products, foods and beverages since the 1920s.


Manufacturers use parabens to stabilize many personal care and food products and prolong their shelf life.
Without an effective preservative, many products, if used frequently, can get contaminated and become a breeding ground for bacteria, yeast and mold.
Parabens are odorless, tasteless and chemically stable, which makes them ideal for use in food and personal care products.


But safer alternatives are available.
Parabens are a group of preservative ingredients used in cosmetics, personal hygiene products, food products and pharmaceuticals.
Parabens are highly effective in preventing the growth of fungi, bacteria, and yeast that can cause products to spoil, helping to extend shelf life.


Preservatives like parabens may be used in cosmetics to protect against microbial (e.g., bacteria, fungus) growth, both to protect consumers and to maintain product integrity.
In the food industry, parabens have been used for more than 50 years as preservatives and anti-microbial agents.


Some fruits, such as blueberries, contain parabens as a naturally occurring preservative.
Parabens are widely used in confectioneries, cereal-based snacks, dried meats, and much more.
Parabens are chemical preservatives widely used in food and personal care products.


Parabens are a type of endocrine disruptor that may cause serious health harm, especially in the developing body.
If you’re concerned about the impact of parabens on your health, there are ways to avoid them.
Parabens are a group of chemicals that preserve our personal care products.


-blueberries uses of Parabens:
Parabens are derived from para-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA) that occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables, such as cucumbers, cherries, carrots, blueberries and onions.

Parabens also is naturally formed in the human body by the breakdown of some amino acids.
Parabens used in cosmetics are identical to those found in nature, and the human body quickly changes them into natural PHBA and eliminates them.


-cosmetics uses of Parabens:
Parabens (including methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, isopropylparaben, and isobutylparaben) may be used in products such as makeup, moisturizers, and hair care and shaving products.
Contrary to some reports, most major brands of deodorants and antiperspirants no longer contain parabens.


-Parabens can be ingredients in a number of everyday products, such as:
*drugs
*cosmetics
*pesticides
*natural health products
Some parabens are permitted food additives and can also occur naturally in some foods.



PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN PARABENS:
-Personal care.
Some products with parabens that you might find in your home are: Shampoo, conditioner, and other hair care products
*Moisturizers and lotions


-Makeup
*Shaving products
In the past, parabens were also used in deodorants and antiperspirants.
Today, many brands have removed parabens as ingredients in their products, but some may still use these chemicals.

Cosmetics and personal care products that are sold in the U.S. are required to list all of their ingredients on the packaging.
This way, you can see if there are parabens or other ingredients or chemicals in them that you want to stay away from.


-Food and drinks.
For the past 50 years, parabens have also been added to foods to stop the growth of microorganisms.
You might find parabens in:
*Cereals
*Candy
*Dried meats
*Beer
*Sauces
*Processed veggies
*Frozen dairy products
*Jams
*Pickles
*Flavored syrups


-Pharmaceuticals
If parabens weren’t added to these foods, they would spoil quicker, and you'd have a higher risk of ingesting food that isn’t safe to eat.
Some foods, like blueberries and barley, have naturally occurring parabens in them.



WHAT KINDS OF PRODUCTS CONTAIN PARABENS?
Parabens are used in a wide variety of cosmetics, as well as in foods and drugs.
Cosmetics that may contain parabens include makeup, moisturizers, hair care products, and shaving products, among others.
Many major brands of deodorants do not currently contain parabens, although some may.



TYPES OF PARABENS:
Parabens have been added to cosmetics and other products since the 1920s.
If you read the ingredients on a bottle of shampoo or foundation, you may see the names of six of the most common ones:
*Methylparaben
*Ethylparaben
*Propylparaben
*Isopropylparaben
*Butylparaben
*Isobutylparaben



PARABENS AT A GLANCE:
*Parabens are a group of chemicals that prevent the growth of mold, bacteria and yeasts.
*Parabens are often added to cosmetics and personal care products to increase shelf-life and stability.



WHERE ARE PARABENS FOUND?
Parabens are most commonly found in cosmetics and personal care items such as lotions, sunscreen, antiperspirants, makeup and hair products.
Parabens may also be found in chewing gum and mouthwash



KEY POINTS/OVERVIEW OF PARABENS:
Parabens are derived from para-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA) that occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables, such as cucumbers, cherries, carrots, blueberries and onions.

Parabens used in cosmetics are identical to those found in nature, and the human body quickly changes them into natural PHBA and eliminates them.
Parabens have been safely used for almost 100 years as preservatives in the food, drug and personal care and cosmetic industries.
Several commonly used parabens have been designated as “Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS)” for such uses by the FDA since the early 1970s.



TYPES OF PARABENS:
Cosmetics typically contain mixtures of different types of parabens.
The most commonly used six types of Parabens are methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, isopropyl-, butyl- and isobutylparaben.

The so-called shorter-chain parabens, methyl- and ethyl-, are commonly used in combination, whereas butylparaben is often used alone.
The longer-chain parabens, propyl- and butyl-, are linked to stronger estrogenic activity.
The branched structure has been shown to increase estrogenic activity as well as sensitization potency.



WHAT PRODUCTS CONTAIN PARABENS:
Parabens are used in a wide variety of leave-on and rinse-off products, especially those with a high water content, such as shampoos and conditioners, which people use every day.
Parabens's antimicrobial properties are most effective against fungi and gram positive bacteria.

Moisturizers, face and skin cleaners, sunscreens, deodorants, shaving gels, toothpastes, makeup and many other products contain parabens.
Parabens are absorbed into the body through the skin, metabolized and excreted in urine and bile.

However, daily use of a product or multiple products containing parabens results in direct and continuous exposure, as indicated by nearly ubiquitous detection in biomonitoring surveys.

Personal care products are the greatest contributors to Parabens exposure, as seen in studies comparing paraben levels in the bodies of women, men, adolescents and children who regularly use cosmetics and those who do not.

Adolescent girls who wear makeup every day had 20 times the levels of propylparaben in their urine compared to those who never or rarely wear makeup.
The use of body and face lotions, hair products, sunscreens and makeup have all been predictors of and correlated with remarkably increased levels of urinary parabens.



CHEMISTRY OF PARABENS:
Structure;
Parabens are esters of para-hydroxybenzoic acid, from which the name is derived.
Common parabens include methylparaben (E number E218), ethylparaben (E214), propylparaben (E216), butylparaben and heptylparaben (E209).

Less common parabens include isobutylparaben, isopropylparaben, benzylparaben and their sodium salts.
The general chemical structure of a paraben is shown at the top right of this page, where R symbolizes an alkyl group such as methyl, ethyl, propyl or butyl.



SYNTHESIS OF PARABENS:
All commercially used parabens are synthetically produced, although some are identical to those found in nature.
Parabens are produced by the esterification of para-hydroxybenzoic acid with the appropriate alcohol, such as methanol, ethanol, or n-propanol.
para-Hydroxybenzoic acid is in turn produced industrially from a modification of the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction, using potassium phenoxide and carbon dioxide.



BIOLOGICAL MODE OF ACTION OF PARABENS:
Parabens are active against a broad spectrum of microorganisms.
However, Parabens's antibacterial mode of action is not well understood.

Parabens are thought to act by disrupting membrane transport processes or by inhibiting synthesis of DNA and RNA or of some key enzymes, such as ATPases and phosphotransferases, in some bacterial species.
Propylparaben is considered more active against more bacteria than methylparaben.

The stronger antibacterial action of propylparaben may be due to its greater solubility in the bacterial membrane, which may allow it to reach cytoplasmic targets in greater concentrations.

However, since a majority of the studies on the mechanism of action of parabens suggest that their antibacterial action is linked to the membrane, it is possible that its greater lipid solubility disrupts the lipid bilayer, thereby interfering with bacterial membrane transport processes and perhaps causing the leakage of intracellular constituents.



WHAT PRODUCTS HAVE PARABENS?
Sooo many.
You’ll typically find Parabens in products with a high water content—think shampoos, conditioners, lotions, shaving gels, toothpastes, the list goes on.
Parabens are a hot topic in the beauty world, but they’re also widely used as food preservatives—so much so that scientists have detected them in most grocery store food products.

Paraffin wax phase-change cooling coupled with retractable radiators was used to cool the electronics of the Lunar Roving Vehicle during the crewed missions to the Moon in the early 1970s.
Wax expands considerably when Paraffin wax melts and so is used in wax element thermostats for industrial, domestic and, particularly, automobile purposes.
If pure paraffin wax melted to the approximate flash point in a half open glass vessel which is then suddenly cooled down, then its vapors may autoignite as result of reaching boiling liquid pressure.

Composition
Paraffin wax is a mixture of solid higher alkanes, the molecular formula of the main component is CnH2n+2, where n=17~35.
The main components are straight-chain alkanes, a small amount of alkane with individual branches and monocyclic cycloalkanes with long side chains; straight-chain alkanes are mainly n-docosane (C22H46) and n-octadecane (C28H58).

History
Paraffin wax was first created in 1830 by German chemist Karl von Reichenbach when he attempted to develop a method to efficiently separate and refine waxy substances naturally occurring in petroleum.
Paraffin represented a major advance in the candle-making industry because it burned cleanly and was cheaper to manufacture than other candle fuels such as beeswax and tallow.
Paraffin wax initially suffered from a low melting point.
Paraffin wax was remedied by adding stearic acid.
The production of paraffin wax enjoyed a boom in the early 20th century due to the growth of the oil and meatpacking industries, which created paraffin and stearic acid as byproducts.

Wax
Paraffin wax is of two general types: (i) paraffin wax in petroleum distillates and (ii) microcrystalline wax in petroleum residua.
Paraffin wax is a solid crystalline mixture of straightchain (normal) hydrocarbons ranging from 20 to 30 carbon atoms per molecule, and even higher.
Paraffin wax is a solid crystalline mixture of straightchain (normal) hydrocarbons ranging from C20 to C30 and possibly higher, that is, CH3(CH2)nCH3 , where n≥18.
Paraffin wax is distinguished by its solid state at ordinary temperatures (25°C, 77°F) and low viscosity (35–45 SUS at 99°C, 210°F) when melted.
However, in contrast to petroleum wax, petrolatum (petroleum jelly), although solid at ordinary temperatures, does in fact contain both solid and liquid hydrocarbons.
Paraffin wax is essentially a low-melting, ductile, microcrystalline wax.
Microcrystalline waxes form approximately 1–2% w/w of crude oil and are valuable products having numerous applications.
These waxes are usually obtained from heavy lube distillates by solvent dewaxing and from tank bottom sludge by acid clay treatment.
However, these crude wax products usually contain appreciable quantity (10–20% w/w) of residual oil and, as such, are not suitable for many applications such as paper coating, electrical insulation, textile printing, and polishes.

Microcrystalline waxes
Microcrystalline waxes are a type of wax produced by de-oiling petrolatum, as part of the petroleum refining process.
In contrast to the more familiar paraffin wax, which contains mostly unbranched alkanes, microcrystalline wax contains a higher percentage of iso-paraffin (branched) and naphthene hydrocarbons.
Paraffin wax is characterized by the fineness of its crystals in contrast to the larger crystal of paraffin wax.
Paraffin wax consists of high-molecular-weight saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons.
Paraffin wax is generally darker, more viscous, denser, tackier, and more elastic than paraffin waxes, and has a higher molecular weight and melting point.

The elastic and adhesive characteristics of microcrystalline waxes are related to the non-straightchain components that they contain.
Typical microcrystalline wax crystal structure is small and thin, making them more flexible than paraffin wax.
Microcrystalline waxes when produced by wax refiners are typically produced to meet a number of ASTM specifications, which include congealing point (ASTM D938), needle penetration (D1321), color (ASTM D6045), and viscosity (ASTM D445).
Microcrystalline wax is also a key component in the manufacture of petrolatum.
The branched structure of the carbon chain backbone allows oil molecules to be incorporated into the crystal lattice structure.
The desired properties of the petrolatum can be modified by using microcrystalline wax bases of different congeal points (ASTM D938) and needle penetration (ASTM D1321).

Uses
Paraffin wax, or hard wax, is a mixture of solid hydrocarbons, mainly alkanes.
Paraffinwax can be added to medicinal agents.
Petroleumwax and petrolatum are the only hydrocarbons permitted for use in food products.
Paraffin wax is used as a household wax and extensively as a coating for food containers and wrappers.
Paraffin Wax is used to embed tissues to be used in research.
Paraffin wax can be used as a phase changing material in a wide range of applications which include solar based water heaters, microcapsules and thermal energy devices (TEDs).
Used in the production of candles, crayons, wax paper, rubber, wires, cables, plates, waterproof materials, electrical insulation, food packaging, precision casting, general telecommunications equipment, textiles, printing, metal rust prevention, and other chemicals required by various industrial sectors raw material.

Paraffin wax can also be used for oxidation to generate synthetic fatty acids.
Paraffin wax can also be made into detergents, emulsifiers, dispersants, plasticizers, greases, etc.
As a kind of latent heat storage material, paraffin wax has the advantages of large latent heat of phase change, small volume change during solid-liquid phase change, good thermal stability, no supercooling phenomenon, and low price.
Paraffin wax is used in aviation, aerospace, microelectronics, etc. Various fields such as scientific and technological systems and house energy saving have been widely used.

1. Paraffin wax can be made into flake or needle crystals obtained by solvent dewaxing or freezing crystallization of wax, pressing dewaxing to obtain wax paste, and then solvent deoiling and refining.
Used to make higher fatty acids, higher alcohols, matches, candles, waterproofing agents, ointments, electrical insulating materials, etc.
2. Paraffin wax is divided into food grade (food grade and packaging grade, the former is excellent) and industrial grade.
Food grade is non-toxic and industrial grade is not edible.
3. Because of its high oil content, crude paraffin is mainly used to make matches, fiberboards, tarpaulins, etc.
After adding polyolefin additives to paraffin wax, its melting point increases, adhesion and flexibility increase, and Paraffin wax is widely used in moisture-proof and waterproof packaging paper, cardboard, surface coating of certain textiles and candle production.

4. After immersing the paper in paraffin wax, various wax papers with good waterproof performance can be prepared, which can be used in food, medicine and other packaging, metal rust prevention and printing industries; after paraffin wax is added to cotton yarn, the textiles can be soft, smooth and smooth.
Paraffin wax is elastic; paraffin wax can also be used to make detergents, emulsifiers, dispersants, plasticizers, greases, etc.
5. Fully refined paraffin and semi-refined paraffin have a wide range of uses.
They are mainly used as components and packaging materials for food, oral medicines and certain commodities (such as wax paper, crayons, candles, carbon paper), coating materials for baking containers, and Fruit preservation, insulation of electrical components, improvement of rubber aging resistance and flexibility, etc.

Pharmaceutical Applications
Paraffin wax is mainly used in topical pharmaceutical formulations as a component of creams and ointments.
In ointments, Paraffin wax may be used to increase the melting point of a formulation or to add stiffness.
Paraffin wax is additionally used as a coating agent for capsules and tablets, and is used in some food applications.
Paraffin wax coatings can also be used to affect the release of drug from ion-exchange resin beads.

Reactivity Profile
Paraffin wax, may be incompatible with strong oxidizing agents.
Charring may occur followed by ignition of unreacted portion and other nearby combustibles.
In other settings, mostly unreactive.
Not affected by aqueous solutions of acids, alkalis, most oxidizing agents, and most reducing agents.
When heated sufficiently or when ignited in the presence of air, oxygen or strong oxidizing agents, they burn exothermically.

Health Hazard
Exposures to paraffi n for a prolonged period cause several types of skin disorders, The adverse health effects to skin include chronic dermatitis, wax boils, folliculitis, comedones, papules, melanoderma, and hyperkeratoses.
Studies of Hendricks et al. indicated the development of carcinoma of the scrotum in workers exposed to crude petroleum wax.
Carcinoma of the scrotum in occupational workers began with a normal hyperkeratotic nevus-like lesion, which subsequently resulted in a squamous cell carcinoma.

Manufacturing
The feedstock for paraffin is slack wax, which is a mixture of oil and wax, a byproduct from the refining of lubricating oil.
The first step in making paraffin wax is to remove the oil (de-oiling or de-waxing) from the slack wax.
The oil is separated by crystallization.
Most commonly, the slack wax is heated, mixed with one or more solvents such as a ketone and then cooled.
As Paraffin wax cools, wax crystallizes out of the solution, leaving only oil.
This mixture is filtered into two streams: solid (wax plus some solvent) and liquid (oil and solvent).

After the solvent is recovered by distillation, the resulting products are called "product wax" (or "press wax") and "foots oil".
The lower the percentage of oil in the wax, the more refined Paraffin wax is considered (semi-refined versus fully refined).
The product wax may be further processed to remove colors and odors.
The wax may finally be blended together to give certain desired properties such as melt point and penetration.
Paraffin wax is sold in either liquid or solid form.

Paraffin wax is also a mineral oil and an ingredient in many skin creams, lotions, and gels.

Paraffin waxes are produced as by-products of base oil production process in petroleum refineries.
This by-product is refined in paraffin production facilities to get semi or fully refined grades.
Rafination generally consist s of deoiling, bleaching and deodorization.

Paraffinic products can be divided into two genaral categories: Paraffin waxes and microcrystalline waxes.
Paraffin waxes also called macrocrystalline waxes consist of macrocrystals which are arranged in a more regular pattern and contains high percentage of unbranched molecules.
Paraffin waxes are higher grade alkanes which are very hydrophobic and chemically inert.

Application areas include hot melt adhesives, PVC production, textile industry, explosives,candlemaking, paper and packaging, inks, paints, match production, rodent bait carrier, fishnet protection, tire and rubber industry.

Paraffin Wax is a by-product of the petro-chemical industry.
Paraffin Wax has a low melting point of 50-60°c and a brittle texture, making Paraffin Wax unsuitable for encaustic painting or as an additive to oil paints, but it can be used to impart softness to lithographic crayons.
As a petroleum product, Paraffin Wax is more inert than animal or vegetable waxes, and is therefore not saponified (turned into soap) by alkali substances.


PRODUCTION OF PARAFFIN WAX:
Paraffin wax from a solvent dewaxing operation is commonly known as slack was, and the processes employed for the production of waxes arc aimed at de-oiling the slack wax (petroleum wax concentrate).

Was "waling was originally used to separate wax fractions with various melting points from the wax obtained from shale oils.
Wax sweating is Still used to some extent but is being replaced by the more convenient crystallization process.
In wax sweating, a cake of slack wax is slowly warmed to a temperature at which the oil in the wax and the lower-melting waxes become fluid and drip (or sweat) from the bottom of the cake. leaving a residue of higher-melting wax.

Sweated waxes generally contain small amounts of unsaturated aromatic and sulfur compounds, which are the source of unwanted color, odor, and the aisle that reduce the ability of the wax to resist oxidation; the commonly used method of removing these impurities is clay treatment of the molten wax.

Wax crystallization, like wax sweating, separates slack wax into Inactions. but instead of using the differences in melting points, it makes use of the different solubility of the wax fractions in a solvent. such as the ketone used in the dewaxing process.
When a mixture of ketone and slack wax is heated, the slack wax usually dissolves completely. and it' the solution is cooled slowly, a temperature is reached at which a crop of wax crystals is formed.
These crystals will all be of the same melting point. and if they arc removed by filtration, a wax fraction with a specific melting point is obtained.
If the clear filtrate is further cooled, the second crop of wax crystals with a lower melting point is obtained.
Thus, by alternate cooling and filtration, the slack wax can be subdivided into a large number of wax fractions, each with different melting points.

Chemically. paraffin wax is a mixture of saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons (with the general formula.
Wax is the residue extracted when dewaxing lubricant oils and they have a crystalline structure with canton number greater than 12.
The main characteristics of wax are (i) colorless. (ii) Odorless. (iii) translucent, and (iv) a melting point above 45°C (113°F).


PROPERTIES OF PARAFFIN WAX:
Paraffin wax is mostly found as a white, odorless, tasteless, waxy solid, with a typical melting point between about 46 and 68 °C (115 and 154 °F), and a density of around 900 kg/m3.
Paraffin wax is insoluble in water, but soluble in ether, benzene, and certain esters.
Paraffin is unaffected by most common chemical reagents but burns readily.
Its heat of combustion is 42 MJ/kg.


The hydrocarbon C31H64 is a typical component of paraffin wax.
Paraffin wax is an excellent electrical insulator, with a resistivity of between 1013 and 1017 ohm metre.
This is better than nearly all other materials except some plastics (notably Teflon).
It is an effective neutron moderator and was used in James Chadwick's 1932 experiments to identify the neutron.

Paraffin wax is an excellent material for storing heat, with a specific heat capacity of 2.14–2.9 J g−1 K−1 (joules per gram kelvin) and a heat of fusion of 200–220 J g−1.
Paraffin wax phase-change cooling coupled with retractable radiators was used to cool the electronics of the Lunar Roving Vehicle during the crewed missions to the Moon in the early 1970s.
Wax expands considerably when it melts and this allows its use in wax element thermostats for industrial, domestic and, particularly, automobile purposes.

If pure parraffine wax melted to the approximate flash point in a half open glass vessel which is then suddenly cooled down its vapors may autoignite as result of reaching boiling liquid pressure.


Petroleum wax is of two general types: the paraffin waxes in petroleum distillates and the microcrystalline waxes in petroleum residua.
The melting point of the wax is not directly related to its boiling point because waxes contain hydrocarbons of different chemical nature.
Nevertheless, waxes are graded according to their melting point (ASTM 1)87, IP 55) and oil content (ASTM D721. IP In).


The melting point of paraffin was (ASTM D87. IP 55) has both direct and indirect significance in most wax utilization.
All wax grades are commercially indicated in a range of melting temperatures rather than at a single value, and a range of I °C (2°F) usually indicates a good degree of refinement.
Other common physical properties that help to illustrate the degree of refinement of the wax are color (ASTM D156), oil content (ASTM D721, IP 158), and viscosity (ASTM D88, ASTM D445, IP 71).

Fully refined paraffin waxes are a hard, white crystalline material derived from petroleum.
Paraffin waxes are predominately composed of normal, straight-chain hydrocarbons.

The water-repellent and thermoplastic properties of paraffin waxes make them ideal for many applications.
Typical end uses include cereal, delicatessen, and household wrap, corrugated containers, candles, cheese and vegetable coatings, and hot melt adhesives.

Paraffin wax is mostly found as a white, odorless, tasteless, waxy solid, with a typical melting point between about 46 and 68°C (115 and 154°F) and a density of approximately 900, is insoluble in water, but soluble in ether, benzene, and certain esters.
Paraffin wax is often classed as a stable chemical since it is unaffected by most common chemical reagents but burns readily.

Microcrystalline waxes are a type of wax produced by de-oiling petrolatum, as part of the petroleum refining process.
In contrast to the more familiar paraffin wax, which contains mostly unbranched alkanes, microcrystalline wax contains a higher percentage of iso-paraffin (branched) and naphthene hydrocarbons.
It is characterized by the fineness of its crystals in contrast to the larger crystal of paraffin wax.

It consists of high-molecular-weight saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons.
It is generally darker, more viscous, denser, tackier, and more elastic than paraffin waxes, and has a higher molecular weight and melting point.

The elastic and adhesive characteristics of microcrystalline waxes are related to the non-straight-chain components that they contain.
The typical microcrystalline wax crystal structure is small and thin, making them more flexible than paraffin wax.





Color:
Paraffin wax is generally white in color, whereas microcrystalline wax and petrolatum range from white to almost black.
A fully refined wax should be virtually colorless (water-white) when examined in the molten state.
The absence of color is of particular importance in wax used for pharmaceutical purposes or for the manufacture of food wrappings.

The significance of the color of microcrystalline wax and petrolatum depends on the use for which they are intended.
In some applications (e.g., the manufacture of corrosion preventives), color may be of little importance.

The Saybolt color test method (ASTM D156) is used for nearly colorless waxes, and in this method, a melted sample is placed in a heated vertical tube mounted alongside a second tube containing standard color disks.
An optical viewer allows simultaneous viewing of both tubes.
The level of the sample is decreased until its color is lighter than that of the standard, and the color number above this level is the Saybolt color.

The test method for the color of petroleum products (ASTM DI500, IP 196) is for wax and petrolatum that are too dark for the Saybolt colorimeter.
A liquid sample is placed in the test container, a glass cylinder of 30-35 min ID, and compared with colored glass disks ranging in value from 0-5 to 8-0, using a standard light source.
If an exact match is not found, and the sample color falls between two standard colors, the higher of the two colors is reported.

The Lovibond Tintometer (IP 17) is used to measure the tint and depth of color by comparison with a series of red, yellow, and blue standard glasses.
Waxes and petrolatum are tested in the molten state, and a wide range of cell sizes is available for different types.














HISTORY OF PARAFFIN WAX:
Paraffin wax was first created in 1830 by German chemist Karl von Reichenbach when he attempted to develop a method to efficiently separate and refine waxy substances naturally occurring in petroleum.
Paraffin represented a major advance in the candlemaking industry, because it burned cleanly and was cheaper to manufacture than other candle fuels.
Paraffin wax initially suffered from a low melting point.

This was remedied by adding stearic acid.
The production of paraffin wax enjoyed a boom in the early 20th century due to the growth of the oil and meatpacking industries, which created paraffin and stearic acid as byproducts.


Paraffin wax is acquired from petroleum by dewaxing light lubricating oil stocks.
It was first produced in 1830 by Carl Reichenbach in Germany and commemorated a key advancement in candle making technology, as its burn was cleaner, more consistent than tallow candles and was cheaper to produce.

Initially, paraffin wax had a low melting point, however, the addition of stearic acid later solved this.
Paraffin wax production was thriving in the early 20th century from a rise in meatpacking and oil industries which generated paraffin and stearic acid as by-products.




HOW IS PARAFFIN WAX MADE?:
Paraffin feedstock is slack wax, a combination of oil and wax and a by-product from the refining of lubricating oil.
Firstly, the oil is removed (de-oiled or de-waxed) from the slack wax and separated by crystallisation.
Generally, the slack wax is heated, mixed with a solvent such as ketone and then cooled.

The wax then crystalises out of the solution and the oil remains before the mixture is then filtered into two streams:
• Solid – wax plus some solvent
• Liquid – oil and solvent
Once the solvent is retrieved by distillation, the subsequent products are “product wax” (or “press wax”) and “foots oil”.
The lower percentage of oil in the wax, the more refined it is (semi-refined vs fully-refined).

The product wax may be processed more to remove any colours and odours.
The wax may then be blended to achieve specific required products such as penetration and melt point.
The paraffin wax is then supplied in either liquid or solid form.


MANUFACTURING OF PARAFFIN WAX:
The feedstock for paraffin is slack wax, which is a mixture of oil and wax, a byproduct from the refining of lubricating oil.
The first step in making paraffin wax is to remove the oil (de-oiling or de-waxing) from the slack wax.
The oil is separated by crystallization.

Most commonly, the slack wax is heated, mixed with one or more solvents such as a ketone and then cooled.
As it cools, wax crystallizes out of the solution, leaving only oil.
This mixture is filtered into two streams: solid (wax plus some solvent) and liquid (oil and solvent).

After the solvent is recovered by distillation, the resulting products are called "product wax" (or "press wax") and "foots oil".
The lower the percentage of oil in the wax, the more refined it is considered (semi-refined versus fully refined).
The product wax may be further processed to remove colors and odors.

The wax may finally be blended together to give certain desired properties such as melt point and penetration.
Paraffin wax is sold in either liquid or solid form.

APPLICATIONS OF PARAFFIN WAX:
In industrial applications, it is often useful to modify the crystal properties of the paraffin wax, typically by adding branching to the existing carbon backbone chain.
The modification is usually done with additives, such as EVA copolymers, microcrystalline wax, or forms of polyethylene.
The branched properties result in a modified paraffin with a higher viscosity, smaller crystalline structure, and modified functional properties.

Pure paraffin wax is rarely used for carving original models for casting metal and other materials in the lost wax process, as it is relatively brittle at room temperature and presents the risks of chipping and breakage when worked.
Soft and pliable waxes, like beeswax, may be preferred for such sculpture, but "investment casting waxes," often paraffin-based, are expressly formulated for the purpose.

In a histology or pathology laboratory, paraffin wax is used to impregnate tissue prior to sectioning thin samples.
Water is removed from the tissue through ascending strengths of alcohol (75% to absolute), and the tissue is cleared in an organic solvent such as xylene.
The tissue is then placed in paraffin wax for several hours, then set in a mold with wax to cool and solidify.
Sections are then cut on a microtome.



Paraffin has a variety of practical uses in industries that range from medicine and agriculture to cosmetics.
While the very first usage of paraffin dates back to the 19th century as paraffin wax in candles, the oil has since found use in many other forms.
Paraffin is commonly used as a fuel for jet engines and rockets, as well as a fuel or fuel component for diesel and tractor engines.

Common paraffin uses include:
Paraffin wax: a white or colourless soft solid used as a lubricant, candles, crayons, electrical insulation and petroleum jelly
Liquid paraffin (drug): a very highly refined mineral oil used in cosmetics and medicines

Alkane: a saturated hydrocarbon used as a chemical solvent and in plastics
Kerosene: a fuel also known as paraffin
Mineral oil: any of various colourless, odourless, light mixtures of alkanes in the C15 – C40 range from non-vegetable (mineral) source, particularly a distillate of petroleum

Petroleum jelly (soft paraffin)
Tractor vaporising oil: a fuel for petrol-paraffin engines
Paraffin fuel: for prama-stoves or paraffin stoves, used in households in rural parts of South Africa
Liquid paraffin is a mineral oil that comes in two forms: either heavy liquid paraffin oil or light liquid paraffin oil.

The terms kerosene and paraffin overlap where the latter is used as a liquid fuel.
Whereas paraffin wax is a waxy solid, liquid paraffin is more viscous and highly refined and can be used as a laxative.

Other uses of paraffin include:
• A coolant for electrical systems
• A hydraulic fluid

BENEFITS OF PARAFFIN WAX:
Cosmetic benefits:
Cosmetically, paraffin wax is often applied to the hands and feet.
The wax is a natural emollient, helping make skin supple and soft.
When applied to the skin, it adds moisture and continues to boost the moisture levels of the skin after the treatment is complete.

It can also help open pores and remove dead skin cells.
That may help make the skin look fresher and feel smoother.

Therapeutic benefits:
Paraffin wax may be used to help relieve pain in the hands of people with:
• Osteoarthritis
• rheumatoid arthritis
• fibromyalgia
• other joint mobility issues

Paraffin wax acts like a form of heat therapy and can help increase blood flow, relax muscles, and decrease joint stiffness.
Paraffin wax can also minimize muscle spasms and inflammation as well as treat sprains.


Paraffin wax has some potential therapeutic uses.
Some salons and spas use it as a skin-softening treatment or pain relief for sore joints and muscles.
The two main benefits of paraffin wax are its moisturizing or skin-softening properties and its use in heat therapy.

Moisturizing:
Spas and salons often use paraffin wax in skin-softening treatments to moisturize the hands, feet, and cuticles.
Paraffin is an occlusive moisturizerTrusted Source, which means it forms a physical barrier on the skin to prevent water loss.
This can make a person’s skin feel supple and soft.

Occlusive agents such as paraffin wax can also help relieve symptoms of dry skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis.
However, occlusive moisturizers may cause the skin to feel greasy.
The thick barrier on the skin could also lead to clogged pores and acne.

Heat therapy:
A person can use paraffin wax as a form of heat therapy for their hands or feet.
To use it for heat therapy, a person can melt the wax, test the temperature, and dip their hands or feet in it.
This may help relieve stiff muscles and joints by improving circulation and increasing blood flow to the area.
People with different forms of arthritis may find that this form of heat therapy helps alleviate pain, stiffness, and swelling, as well as helping to improve mobility and flexibility.



HOW TO USE PARAFFIN WAX:
Salons and spas may offer paraffin wax treatments, but people can also use the treatment at home.
The treatments at home and in a spa are likely very similar.
When using wax at home, a person should use caution when heating the wax and follow all instructions on the kit.

To perform a paraffin wax treatment at home, a person should follow these steps:

Wash hands with soap and water.
Apply a lotion or moisturizer to the hands.

Test the temperature of the wax by dipping a fingertip in gently.
Spread the fingers and dip the hand into the wax.
Remove when coated.

Repeat this, dipping and drying the hand about 6–8 times.
Cover the hand with a towel or plastic bag immediately.
Keep paraffin wax covered for 15–20 minutes.

Remove the towel.
Carefully peel the cooled wax from the hand.
Repeat steps with the other hand.

EC Number: 608-494-5
MDL number: MFCD00133991
Chemical formula: OH(CH2O)nH (n = 8 - 100)


Para-formaldehyde is soluble in water when x is less than 12; higher polymers are not immediately soluble.
Slow dissolution in water of Para-formaldehyde proceeds by means of hydrolysis to give fragments of lower x.
Para-formaldehyde is the smallest polyoxymethylene, the polymerization product of formaldehyde with a typical degree of polymerization of 8–100 units.


Para-formaldehyde commonly has a slight odor of formaldehyde due to decomposition.
Para-formaldehyde is a poly-acetal.
Formaldehyde is CH2O, the simplest aldehyde.
Formalin is the name for saturated (37%) formaldehyde solution.


Thus, a protocol calling for 10% formalin is roughly equivalent to 4% formaldehyde.
Beware though, that some solutions have methanol in them to stop polymerization but this could have a negative effect on your sample.
Para-formaldehyde has actually polymerized formaldehyde. "Pure", methanol-free formaldehyde can be made by heating the solid Para-formaldehyde.
This might be called Para-formaldehyde, but Para-formaldehyde actually isn't because it’s not the polymer form.


Para-formaldehyde is the polymerization product of formaldehyde; degree of polymerization of 8–100 units.
Para-formaldehyde must be depolymerized to formaldehyde in solution prior to use since it is not the fixative itself.
The formaldehyde fixing procedure for cell samples usually involves using a 4% formaldehyde solution in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) on ice for a few minutes.


This vital step maintains the cell morphology and therefore ensures that sample cell structures stay intact, and antigens are immobilized, while still permitting antibody-target antigen access.
Para-formaldehyde depolymerizes in water to formaldehyde solution yielding consistent quality fixative solutions.
To achieve a strong solution, raise the temperature of the water to 60ºC then add sodium hydroxide solution dropwise.


Para-formaldehyde is the smallest polyoxymethylene, the polymerization product of formaldehyde with a typical degree of polymerization of 8–100 units.
Para-formaldehyde commonly has a slight odor of formaldehyde due to decomposition.
Para-formaldehyde is a poly-acetal.


Para-formaldehyde forms slowly in aqueous formaldehyde solutions as a white precipitate, especially if stored in the cold.
Formalin actually contains very little monomeric formaldehyde; most of it forms short chains of polyformaldehyde.
A small amount of methanol is often added as a stabilizer to limit the extent of polymerization.
Para-formaldehyde is as a trimer of formaldehyde and has the formula O-CH2-O-CH2-O-CH2.


Para-formaldehyde is a white, water soluble powder.
When added to a mud in advance of a bacterial inoculation and maintained, Para-formaldehyde can effectively control many strains of bacteria.

Para-formaldehyde is relative insoluble in cold water, but soluble in hot water with depolymerization.
The solubility and rate of solution of Para-formaldehyde in water are greatly influenced by pH and temperature.
Both acidic and alkaline pHs and higher temperatures accelerate the rate of solution.
Once dissolved, the Para-formaldehyde solution behaves like the methanol-free formaldehyde solution of the same concentration.


Para-formaldehyde is composed of varying molecular weight polymers of polyoxymethylene glycols.
Para-formaldehyde is generally prepared as 91 or 95% formaldehyde by weight with the remainder being free and combined water.
The combined water is the terminating agent for the Para-formaldehyde chains.
Para-formaldehyde reacts chemically as formaldehyde at a rate determined by its rate of depolymerization under the conditions of use.


The rate of depolymerization and thus perceived reactivity decreases with increasing molecular weight of the polymer chains.
In microbiology laboratories, fixation process (immunofluorescence) uses formalin 4% concentration.
A blog by researchers mentioned that preparing this solution “fresh” from Para-formaldehyde is better than using formalin that has been kept for some time.


Para-formaldehyde is because more methylene glycol is present compared to its dimer and trimer oligomers and such solution of formalin 4% is absent of methanol.
Para-formaldehyde is the solid form of liquid formaldehyde, formed by the polymerization of formaldehyde with a typical degree of polymerization of 8-100 units.


Para-formaldehyde is a polymer of formaldehyde with a wide range of monomeric units typically 8-100.
Para-formaldehyde does not have the capacity to fix samples, hence it must be depolymerised in the solution.
Heating the Para-formaldehyde powder in the solution leads to its depolymerization.
Although Para-formaldehyde is widely used, there are circumstances where it is used as low as 0.5% to as high as 16%.


When dissolved, Para-formaldehyde breaks into formaldehyde in solution.
Formaldehyde fixes (halts) metabolism by cross-linking protein molecules especially with lysine.
Para-formaldehyde is important to note, that formaldehyde-based fixation is too slow and may take from a few hours to days to fix samples.
Para-formaldehyde is the polymerization product of formaldehyde with a typical degree of polymerization of 8–100 units.


Para-formaldehyde is not a fixative itself; it must be depolymerized to formaldehyde in solution.
Fixing ensures that sample cell structures stay intact and that antigens are immobilized, while ideally still permitting unfettered access of antibodies to target antigens.
Para-formaldehyde is the most preferred fixative agent as it builds covalent cross-links between molecules.


This glues them together hence effectively preserving cells and tissue components.
Use of Para-formaldehyde can guarantee consistency in the physical and chemical properties of the cell, hence no change in chemical and morphology characteristics of the cells and tissues.
Since the Para-formaldehyde is not fixative itself, it is required that formaldehyde is freshly prepared from the PFA stock.



USES and APPLICATIONS of PARA-FORMALDEHYDE:
Para-formaldehyde is used in fungicides, bactericides, and in the manufacture of adhesives.
Once Para-formaldehyde is depolymerized, the resulting formaldehyde may be used as a fumigant, disinfectant, fungicide, and fixative.
Longer chain-length (high molecular weight) polyoxymethylenes are used as a thermoplastic and are known as polyoxymethylene plastic (POM, Delrin).


Para-formaldehyde was used in the past in the discredited Sargenti method of root canal treatment.
Para-formaldehyde is not a fixative; it must be depolymerized to formaldehyde in solution.
In cell culture, a typical formaldehyde fixing procedure would involve using a 4% formaldehyde solution in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) on ice for 10 minutes.


In histology and pathology specimens preparation, usually, the fixation step is performed using 10% Neutral Buffered Formalin (4% formaldehyde) for, at least, 24 hours.
Para-formaldehyde is also used to crosslink proteins to DNA, as used in ChIP (chromatin immunoprecipitation) which is a technique to determine which part of DNA certain proteins are binding to.


Para-formaldehyde can be used as a substitute of aqueous formaldehyde to produce the resinous binding material, which is commonly used together with melamine, phenol or other reactive agents in the manufacturing of particle board, medium density fiberboard and plywood.
Para-formaldehyde is used as a methanol-free, ready-to-use fixative that functions by forming covalent cross-links between molecules.
This strong network stabilizes the cellular framework, thus effectively preserving cell and tissue components.


The fixative delivers consistency in maintaining the physical and chemical properties of the cell; no evident changes occur in the chemical and morphological characteristics of the cell/tissue specimens on exposure to the product.
Para-formaldehyde is compatible with several antibody-based detection methods, such as immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, and immunofluorescence.


Para-formaldehyde is a commonly used preservative for starch, xanthan gum, guar gum and other natural polymers that are prone to attack by bacteria.
Para-formaldehyde has documented uses as a disinfectant, fungicide, fixation reagent and in the preparation of formaldehyde.
In fluorescence studies, Para-formaldehyde has been used as as a formalin fixative to fix cells and tissues.


To use the chemical as a fixative, it must be converted to the monomer formaldehyde by heating as formaldehyde is the active chemical in fixation.
Tissue specimens should be place immediately in Para-formaldehyde to prevent autolysis, putrefaction and other undesirable cellular changes.
Para-formaldehyde is required for tissue/specimen fixation.


Para-formaldehyde is used for laboratory use only.
Para-formaldehyde is a cross-linking fixative used in histology, light and electron microscopy and flow cytometry.
Para-formaldehyde is changed to formaldehyde by heating and by adding small amount of sodium hydroxide.
When the samples are to be used in fluorescence studies, Para-formaldehyde is recommended as fixative.


In histology Para-formaldehyde is generally preferred over other fixatives as the others result in more silver grains on the tissues.
Main Applications of Para-formaldehyde: Coating compounds, adhesive agent, textile-processing resins, phenol resins
Para-formaldehyde is widely used by resin manufacturers seeking low water content, or more favorable control of reaction rates when compared to aqueous formaldehyde solutions.


With less dehydration required, Para-formaldehyde resins are made in less time.
Better yields result from the complete or partial elimination of dehydration because fewer reactants are lost in the distillate.
Utility costs are reduced because Para-formaldehyde requires less steam, cooling water and power for water removal.


The capability of charging more reactants to the process equipment (in the volume otherwise occupied by water and extra azeotroping agent) increases reactor capacity, and reduces capital required for equipment versus the equipment costs and capacity when using aqueous formaldehyde.
Finally, and of increasing importance, less wastewater is produced.


Para-formaldehyde provides a source of formaldehyde for the synthesis of phenol-, urea-, furfural alcohol-, resorcinol- and melamine- formaldehyde resins.
These products find extensive usage in industrial coatings, wood products, textiles, and foundry resins.
Oil well drilling chemicals, lubricating oil additives, adhesive resins, and electrical component molding materials also use Para-formaldehyde.


Miscellaneous end uses include photographic and graphic arts chemicals, pigments, rubber antioxidants, fluorescent tube and ink chemicals, pharmaceuticals, slow release fertilizers and others.
Since Para-formaldehyde is basically a condensed form of formaldehyde, it possesses the same characteristics but with a wider range of applications.


Use of Para-formaldehyde is convenient and safe.
Para-formaldehyde avoids pollution arising from the disposal of the distillate obtained in the thermosetting resin production which is contaminated with organic matter.
Para-formaldehyde does not need to be dissolved in water in order to take part in a chemical reaction.


Para-formaldehyde eliminates the risk of transporting liquid formalin, which is notoriously dangerous.
Perfect for small uses straight from the bag.
Unlike granular or flake forms of Para-formaldehyde, our prilled form of Para-formaldehyde has higher quality consistency and higher solubility to meet with your quality requirement and save you processing time.


In coating applications, low acid content in Para-formaldehyde is important for a greater gloss control and stability.
Para-formaldehyde made with very low acid content in a chemical resistant environment can prevent formation of acidic by-products.
Para-formaldehyde can be used as a substitute of formalin to produce the resinous binding material, which is commonly used together with urea, melamine, phenol, resorcinol, tannin or other reactants in the manufacturing of particle board, fibreboard and plywood.


Para-formaldehyde is recommended to be made in 1X PBS buffer (neutral buffered formalin; NBA).
Neutral pH prevents the formation of formic acid, which is known to form "formalin pigments" in tissue and slower fixation rates.
Para-formaldehyde tissue fixation solution is widely used in the detection of tissue, tissue slice, cell and other biological sample fixation solutions such as immunohistochemistry (IHC), immunofluorescence (IF), immunocytochemistry (IC), flow cytometry (FACS).


If a lower concentration of Para-formaldehyde is needed, PBS can be used as dilution buffer.
Para-formaldehyde tissue fixation solution has strong penetrability and fixation, which can make the tissue harden and it is good for slicing.
Para-formaldehyde will cause less tissue shrinkage, less damage and mild, which can well preserve the inherent substance and maintain the antigenicity and fine structure of the tissue.


In addition, Para-formaldehyde can be used to fix and preserve fat and lipid substances.
Para-formaldehyde has good fixation effect and wide applications.
Para-formaldehyde is suitable for the fixation of various common cells or tissues.
Para-formaldehyde has good fixation effect on skin, muscle, viscera, etc.


Para-formaldehyde mainly acts on protein, but can’t fix uric acid and sugar, etc.
Para-formaldehyde does not contain DEPC and it is not recommended for in situ hybridization or other experiments requiring detection of nucleic acids.
Para-formaldehyde is prepared in PBS solution and can be directly used for tissue or cell fixation without dilution.


Para-formaldehyde is recommended that 1 ml of fixed solution is needed for each sample fixation.
In cell culture, typical formaldehyde fixing procedure would involve using a 4% formaldehyde solution in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) on ice for 10 minutes.

*Para-formaldehyde takes the form of prilled, is stable and very easy to store.
*Para-formaldehyde storage is less expensive than the storage of formaldehyde solution, which requires expensive tanks and which may need stabilization or be kept warm.


-Applications of Para-formaldehyde:
*Fixation solution for Immuno-histochemistry and fluorescent protein labelled samples.
*pH
*Adjust pH 6.9 to 7.4 depending on application with 1N HCl and 1N NaOH.


-Applications of Para-formaldehyde:
• for use in the preparation of formalin fixatives for tissues or cells when the samples are to be used in florescence imaging

*Para-formaldehyde is used in place of formaldehyde aqueous solution for high reactivity and concentrations of aldehyde contents reacted with low water contents.



FEATURES OF PARA-FORMALDEHYDE:
- Ready to use fixative buffer
- Methanol free
- Prepared from EM grade Para-formaldehyde
- Safer and more convenient than handling the Para-formaldehyde solid



WHY PARA-FORMALDEHYDE?
Para-formaldehydeafter depolymerization results in the formation of formaldehyde in solution which can be used as a fumigant, disinfectant, fungicide, fixative.
Para-formaldehyde reacts with either phenol, urea, melamine or resorcinol to produce resin.
Para-formaldehyde is also used in the production of inks of a wide array of ink applications like dollar bills, books, and other printing materials.



SYNTHESIS OF PARA-FORMALDEHYDE:
Para-formaldehyde forms slowly in aqueous formaldehyde solutions as a white precipitate, especially if stored in the cold.
Formalin actually contains very little monomeric formaldehyde; most of it forms short chains of polyformaldehyde.
A small amount of methanol is often added as a stabilizer to limit the extent of polymerization.



REACTIONS OF PARA-FORMALDEHYDE:
Para-formaldehyde can be depolymerized to formaldehyde gas by dry heating and to formaldehyde solution by water in the presence of a base, an acid or heat.
The high purity formaldehyde solutions obtained in this way are used as a fixative for microscopy and histology.
The resulting formaldehyde gas from dry heating paraformaldehyde is flammable.



DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FORMALIN, FORMALDEHYDE AND PARA-FORMALDEHYDE:
Formaldehyde is a simple aldehyde (equivalent of a monomer to Para-formaldehyde) with formula CH2O.
Formalin, on the other hand, is a saturated solution of formaldehyde (37%).
10% formalin is equivalent to 4% formaldehyde.
However, many vendors use a small amount of methanol or other chemicals to prevent polymerization of formaldehyde in the solution.
These additional reagents must be considered as they may yield unwanted effects.

Para-formaldehyde is a polymer of formaldehyde with 8-100 units.
Para-formaldehyde, when dissolved in water, breaks down into formaldehyde.
This solution differs from commercially available form (formalin) being relatively pure (devoid of methanol).
In immunohistochemistry (IHC) and cell biology experiments, researchers prefer working with Para-formaldehyde solution rather formalin due to the same reason.

Although formalin and Para-formaldehyde solutions said to be having formaldehyde, formaldehyde in these solutions is hydrated and converts (most of the formaldehyde) into methylene glycol.
In these solutions (formalin or Para-formaldehyde), a major portion of methylene glycol is in equilibrium with formaldehyde.
However, only formaldehyde (not methylene glycol) have cross-linking ability.



MAKING PARA-FORMALDEHYDE SOLUTION:
Para-formaldehyde is usually made in PBS or TBS at 70 °C with several drops of 5N NaOH to help clarify the solution.
Prepare Para-formaldehyde solution in a chemical hood if you don’t want to be slightly fixed yourself.
Often Para-formaldehyde stocks have insoluble impurities and it's best that these be removed via a quick spin in a table-top centrifuge or by passing the prepared solution through a filter syringe.
Para-formaldehyde is also important to realize that the efficacy and impurity content of powdered Para-formaldehyde can vary greatly from lot number to lot number of reagent.
Don’t be surprised if your fixation concentrations & conditions may need to be tweaked when you open a new bottle of Para-formaldehyde.



FORMALDEHYDE, FORMALIN, AND PARA-FORMALDEHYDE: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
Aldehyde fixatives act by chemically cross-linking free amine groups on proteins.
Formaldehyde is a commonly used fixative, but it is not stable in solution, because under exposure to light and oxygen it polymerizes and precipitates.
Formaldehyde solution is commonly stabilized by the addition of methanol.
The classic fixative used for pathology is 10% neutral buffered formalin, which is a solution of 10% formaldehyde in sodium phosphate buffer containing up to 1.5% methanol.

Many researchers prefer to use methanol-free formaldehyde for fixation, because methanol can permeabilize cell membranes and affect the morphology of cellular structures like the actin cytoskeleton.
To make formaldehyde solution, the polymerized Para-formaldehyde solid must be heated in basic water to form reactive formaldehyde.
Methanol-free fixative solutions prepared from Para-formaldehyde solid are commonly referred to as Para-formaldehyde solution or PFA.
While technically inaccurate, it serves to distinguish stabilizer-free formaldehyde solution from methanol-stabilized formaldehyde.

Toxicity of Paraformaldehyde 97% As a formaldehyde releasing agent, Paraformaldehyde 97% is a potential carcinogen. Its acute oral median lethal dose in rats is 592 mg/kg. Properties of Paraformaldehyde 97% Chemical formula OH(CH2O)nH (n = 8 - 100) Appearance white crystalline solid Density 1.42 g·cm−3 (25 °C) Melting point 120 °C (248 °F; 393 K) Solubility in water low General description of Paraformaldehyde 97% Paraformaldehyde 97% is also referred as polyoxymethylene. Paraformaldehyde 97% participates as an external CO source in the synthesis of aromatic aldehydes and esters. Paraformaldehyde is an ideal fixative used in histology. Paraformaldehyde 97% is generally preferred over other fixative as the others result in more silver grains on the tissues. Paraformaldehyde 97%, appropriately combined with DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) ensures its uniform distribution over the tissue section. Paraformaldehyde is also used in recognizing and stabilizing the expression of intracellular antigen. Application of Paraformaldehyde 97% Paraformaldehyde 97% has been used as a fixative in histological analysis. Paraformaldehyde 97% has also been used in mitotic catastrophe assay. Paraformaldehyde 97% is the informal name of polyoxymethylene, a polymer of formaldehyde (also known by many other and confusing names, such as ‘paraform’, ‘formagene’, ‘para’, ‘polyoxymethane’). Paraformaldehyde 97% is the informal name of polyoxymethylene, a polymer of formaldehyde (also known by many other and confusing names, such as ‘paraform’, ‘formagene’, ‘para’, ‘polyoxymethane’). It is slowly formed as a white precipitate by condensation from the predominant species methanediol (formaldehyde hydrate) in solutions of formaldehyde (which may also be called ‘formalin’, ‘formal’, or ‘formalose’) on standing, in an equilibrium (Fig. 3.1). The solution is predominantly of oligomers, but when n becomes large enough the material becomes sufficiently insoluble as to precipitate, when the condensation may still continue. The resulting solid may have n range from ~ 8 to 100, or more. The reaction is driven to the left, to release formaldehyde, by a low concentration of formaldehyde, and accelerated by acidic or alkaline conditions. Solid Paraformaldehyde 97% smells plainly of the monomer (b.p. − 21 °C), so it is essentially a convenient means of delivering formaldehyde slowly. Paraformaldehyde 97% has documented uses as a disinfectant, fungicide, fixation reagent and in the preparation of formaldehyde. In fluorescence studies, paraformaldehyde 97% has been used as as a formalin fixative to fix cells and tissues. To use the chemical as a fixative, it must be converted to the monomer formaldehyde by heating as formaldehyde is the active chemical in fixation. Paraformaldehyde 97% is a polymer of formaldehyde. Paraformaldehyde 97% itself is not a fixing agent, and needs to be broken down into its basic building block formaldehyde. This can be done by heating or basic conditions until it becomes solubilized. Once that occurs, essentially they are exactly the same. Beware though, some commerical formaldehyde solutions contain methanol to prevent polymerization (into Paraformaldehyde 97%), and this methanol can potentially inhibit your experiment. We allow Paraformaldehyde 97% to heat over-night, filter, and use fresh for our fixation protocols for immunofluorescence, and we have great success. We store the Paraformaldehyde 97% in the fridge, but do not use it after a few days because it will eventually polymerize again and become less efficacious. A polymer consists of 10 to 100 formaldehyde units. Not only the hazardous effects to human health and environment but also the difficulties in processing and storing of formaldehyde gas leads to paraformaldehyde use in formaldehyde resins. Paraformaldehyde decomposes into the formaldehyde at nearly 150°C. Paraformaldehyde 97% applications Applications The most important use of Paraformaldehyde 97% is as a source of formaldehyde groups in the production of many thermosetting resins, together with phenol, urea, melamine, resorcinol and other similar reagents. These resins are used as moulding powders; in the wood industry as glues for chipboard, plywood and furniture; as bonding resins for brakes, abrasives and foundry dyes; as finishing resins for paper and textiles; as driers and glossing agents for paints; as insulating varnishes for electrical parts. Some typical formulations for the production of such resins starting from Paraformaldehyde 97% include dichloroethyl formal, methyl phenol, disinfectants, insecticides, pharmaceuticals such as vitamin A, embalming preparations, dyestuff and special plasticizers. In addition, Paraformaldehyde 97% is used as a fungicide and bactericide in industries as varied as crude oil production, beet sugar refining, and warehousing. Paraformaldehyde 97% has widespread acceptance as an additive to stop fermentation of the starch on oil-well-drilling muds. The sugar beet industry used it to minimize the growth of algae in its continuous diffusers. Hotels and motels in humid areas often use it, with or without added mothproofing agents, in small bags hung in closets to prevent the formation of mildew. Paraformaldehyde 97% possesses the common characteristics with a wide range of applications Paraformaldehyde 97% is the smallest solid form of liquid formaldehyde, formed by the polymerization of formaldehyde with a typical degree of polymerization of 8-100 units. As Paraformaldehyde 97% is basically a condensed form of formaldehyde, it possesses the common characteristics with a wide range of applications. Advantages of Paraformaldehyde 97% in resin production as compared to aqueous formaldehyde Paraformaldehyde 97% does not need to be dissolved in water in order to take part in a chemical reaction. Higher productivity from existing equipment and less water to be removed from the resin product. Paraformaldehyde 97% made with very low acid content in a chemical resistant environment can prevent the formation of acidic by-products. We offer a prilled form, which is stable and very easy to store. Paraformaldehyde 97% storage is less expensive than the storage of formaldehyde solution, which requires expensive tanks and which may need stabilization or be kept warm. It eliminates the risk of transporting liquid formalin, which is notoriously dangerous. Perfect for small uses straight from the bag. Use of Paraformaldehyde 97% is convenient and safe. It avoids pollution arising from the disposal of the distillate obtained in the thermosetting resin production which is contaminated with organic matter. Typical Properties of Paraformaldehyde 97% Color White CAS Number 30525-89-4 Appearance Free Flowing Prilled Molecular Formula OH-(CH2O)n-H where n=8 to 100 units Paraformaldehyde 97% Content 92% ± 1% / 96% ± 1% Water Content 8% ± 1% / 4% ± 1% Reactivity 2 – 8 min Mean Particle Size 250 – 350 µm Ash 0.01 – 0.05% Bulk Density 650 – 850 kg/m3 Melting Point 120 – 175 C Ph 4 – 7 Flammability combustible, with flash point (tag open cup) of about 93 C Vapour Pressure varies with air humidity, being between 23 and 26 mmHg at 25 C Applications of Paraformaldehyde 97% Resins Industry The most important use of Paraformaldehyde 97% is as a source of formaldehyde groups in the production of many thermosetting resins, together with phenol, urea, melamine, resorcinol and other similar reagents. These resins are used as moulding powders; in the wood industry as glues for chipboard, plywood and furniture; as bonding resins for brakes, abrasives and foundry dyes; as finishing resins for paper and textiles; as driers and glossing agents for paints; as insulating varnishes for electrical parts. Disinfectant Paraformaldehyde 97% generates formaldehyde gas when it is depolymerized by heating. The depolymerized material reacts with the moisture in the air to form formaldehyde gas. This process is used for the decontamination of large spaced and laminar-flow biological safety cabinets when maintenance work or filter changes require access to the sealed portion of the cabinet. It is used in the poultry industry as a disinfectant in the hatcheries, and cattle and sheep industry for sanitizing the bedding in the sheds. It releases formaldehyde gas when the temperatures increase. It reduces contamination levels caused by moulds, viruses and bacteria. Agriculture and Pesticides Most Paraformaldehyde 97% consumed by the agrochemicals industry is for the herbicides such as bismerthiazol, butachlor, acetochlor, glyphosate, and machete. Embalming Process Formalin is used during embalming processes as a disinfectant and preservative. It is used as an injection fluid in arterial and cavity embalming, and in surface embalming as a fluid for soaking surface packs or a gel applied to the skin or internal surfaces. Paraformaldehyde 97%, a powdered polymer form of formaldehyde, is also sometimes used in embalming processes. Reagent for Organic Reactions In microbiology laboratories, fixation process (immunofluorescence) uses formalin 4% concentration. A blog by researchers mentioned that preparing this solution “fresh” from Paraformaldehyde 97% is better than using formalin that has been kept for some time. It is because more methylene glycol is present compared to its dimer and trimer oligomers and such solution of formalin 4% is absent of methanol. Oil Well Drilling Chemicals Paraformaldehyde 97% is used in the manufacturing of 1,3,5-triazine used as H2S scavenger in Oil drilling process. Paraformaldehyde 97% tablets are very effective against a wide spectrum of organisms. They may be recommended for targeted degerming measures in medical practice. Their utilization requires the observance of the conditions necessary for their efficient use. The tablets should be employed only in containers which are as tight-fitting as possible (preferentially instrument cabinets, Heynemann cabinets, catheter boxes and plastic bags). Paraformaldehyde 97% tablets are well suited for the reduction of the bacterial population and the storage of nonwrapped sterilized instruments. For this purpose, 1 tablet/dm3 is needed. The exposure time required for bacterial count reduction is no less than 3 h. Despite certain limitations, Paraformaldehyde 97% tablets may be used for disinfecting. The objects to be disinfected should be neither too contaminated nor too soiled. The minimum period of exposure is 5 h, and 10 tablets/dm3 are necessary. Cold sterilization requires 10 tablets/dm3, too; but the exposure time ranges from 15 to 24 h. This method (which must be considered an expedient) should be employed only if the respective device or instrument cannot be sterilized by other sterilizing techniques. In any case, 80% relative air humidity is a must in the devices in which Paraformaldehyde 97% tablets are used. Paraformaldehyde 97% is the solid form of liquid formaldehyde, formed by the polymerization of formaldehyde with a typical degree of polymerization of 8-100 units. Since Paraformaldehyde 97% is basically a condensed form of formaldehyde, it possesses the same characteristics but with a wider range of applications. Manufactured based on the latest technology to give good solubility, homogeneous prilled and low acid content, it is suitable for all ranges of application of Paraformaldehyde 97%. Unlike granular or flake forms of Paraformaldehyde 97%, our prilled form of Paraformaldehyde 97% has higher quality consistency and higher solubility to meet with your quality requirement and save you processing time. In coating applications, low acid content in Paraformaldehyde 97% is important for a greater gloss control and stability. Paraformaldehyde 97% made with very low acid content in a chemical resistant environment can prevent formation of acidic by-products. In microbiology laboratories, fixation process (immunofluorescence) uses formalin 4% concentration. A blog by researchers mentioned that preparing this solution “fresh” from Paraformaldehyde 97% is better than using formalin that has been kept for some time. It is because more methylene glycol is present compared to its dimer and trimer oligomers and such solution of formalin 4% is absent of methanol. Paraformaldehyde 97% can be used as a substitute of formalin to produce the resinous binding material, which is commonly used together with urea, melamine, phenol, resorcinol, tannin or other reactants in the manufacturing of particle board, fibreboard and plywood. Use of Paraformaldehyde 97% in resin production offers many advantages as compared to aqueous formaldehyde: Higher productivity from existing equipment and less water to be removed from the resin product. It takes the form of prilled, is stable and very easy to store. Paraformaldehyde 97% storage is less expensive than the storage of formaldehyde solution, which requires expensive tanks and which may need stabilization or be kept warm. Use of Paraformaldehyde 97% is convenient and safe. It avoids pollution arising from the disposal of the distillate obtained in the thermosetting resin production which is contaminated with organic matter. Paraformaldehyde 97% does not need to be dissolved in water in order to take part in a chemical reaction. It eliminates the risk of transporting liquid formalin, which is notoriously dangerous. Perfect for small uses straight from the bag. Packaging & Handling of Paraformaldehyde 97% - Polyethylene bag : 25 KG nett. Other Packaging sizes by request. - Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. Paraformaldehyde 97% decomposes to formaldehyde which can build up in a shipping container depending on time and temperature during transit. The level of formaldehyde exposure may be instantaneously high when the shipping container is opened. Storage of Paraformaldehyde 97% Store in locked up. Location of storage should only be accesible to authorised personnel. Separate storage area from work place. By Application of Paraformaldehyde 97% Urea-Formaldehyde Resin Phenolic Resin Melamine Resin Fumigation Reagent for organic reactions Coating Pesticide Disinfectant Pharmaceuticals Paraformaldehyde 97% (PFA) is a polymer of formaldehyde. Paraformaldehyde 97% itself is not a fixing agent, and needs to be broken down into its basic building block, formaldehyde. This can be done by heating or basic conditions until it becomes solubilized. Formalin is the name for saturated (37%) formaldehyde solution. Beware though, some commercial formaldehyde solutions contain methanol to prevent polymerization (into Paraformaldehyde 97%). Since 100% formalin contains up to 15% of methanol as a stabilizer, it has a significant impact on cell fixation. Methanol is a permeabilizing agent. It can interfere with the staining of membrane bound proteins, and can greatly influence staining of cytoskeletal proteins. For example, when staining cellular F-actin it is imperative to use a methanol-free formaldehyde fixative. This is because methanol can disrupt F-actin during the fixation process and prevent the binding of phalloidin conjugates. "Pure" methanol-free formaldehyde can be made by heating the solid PFA. 4% Paraformaldehyde 97% is usually made in PBS or TBS at 70 °C with several drops of 5N NaOH to help clarify the solution. Prepare 4% Paraformaldehyde 97% solution in a chemical hood and then store in a refrigerator. Because the solution will re-polymerize during storage it is best to use immediately or within a few days. In the presence of air and moisture, polymerization readily takes place in concentrated solutions at room temperatures to form paraformaldehyde, a solid mixture of linear polyoxymethylene glycols containing 90-99% formaldehyde. Paraformaldehyde 97% is used in place of aqueous formaldehyde solutions, especially in applications where the presence of water interferes, e.g., in the plastics industry for the preparation of phenol, urea, and melamine resins, varnish resins, thermosets, and foundry resins. Other uses include the synthesis of organic products in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries (e.g., Prins reaction, chloromethylation, Mannich reaction), the production of textile auxiliaries (e.g., for crease-resistant finishes), and the preparation of disinfectants and deodorants. Paraformaldehyde 97% is prepared industrially in continuously operated plants by concentrating aqueous formaldehyde solutions under vacuum conditions. ... /It/ is currently produced in several steps which are carried out at low pressure and various temperatures. Highly reactive formaldehyde is produced under vacuum conditions starting with solutions that contain 50 - 100 ppm of formic acid and also 1 - 15 ppm of metal formates where the metals have an atomic number of 23 - 30 (e.g., Mn, Co, and Cu). The solutions are processed in thin-layer evaporators and spray dryers. Other techniques such as fractional condensation of the reaction gases in combination with the formaldehyde synthesis process and very rapid cooling of the gases are also applied. Alternatively, formaldehyde-containing gas is brought into contact with Paraformaldehyde 97% at a temperature that is above the dew point of the gas and below the decomposition temperature of Paraformaldehyde 97%. The product is obtained in the form of flakes when a highly concentrated formaldehyde solution is poured onto a heated metal surface. The hardened product is subsequently scraped off and thoroughly dried. Paraformaldehyde 97% beads are produced by introducing a highly concentrated melt into a cooling liquid (e.g., benzene, toluene, cyclohexane). Acids and alkalis are also added; they apparently accelerate polymerization and lead to the formation of higher molecular mass but less reactive Paraformaldehyde 97%. Highly soluble, highly reactive Paraformaldehyde 97% with a low degree of polymerization is very much in demand. It is produced from concentrated, aqueous - alcoholic formaldehyde solutions.

The widmark test for the UV photometric determination of ethanol in blood and urine is described. Paraformaldehyde 97% can also be detected. Paraformaldehyde 97% is designated as a hazardous substance under section 311(b)(2)(A) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act and further regulated by the Clean Water Act Amendments of 1977 and 1978. These regulations apply to discharges of this substance. This designation includes any isomers and hydrates, as well as any solutions and mixtures containing this substance. The Agency has completed its assessment of the residential, occupational and ecological risks associated with the use of pesticide products containing the active ingredient formaldehyde and Paraformaldehyde 97%. The Agency has determined that virtually all formaldehyde and Paraformaldehyde 97% containing products are eligible for reregistration provided that: 1) all risk mitigation measures are implemented; 2) current data gaps and confirmatory data needs are addressed; and 3) label amendments are made as described in Section V. Use in confined spaces such as closets is not eligible for registration because of the difficulty associated with ventilation of these spaces. ... Based on its evaluation of formaldehyde and Paraformaldehyde 97%, the Agency has determined that formaldehyde and Paraformaldehyde 97% products, unless labeled and used as specified in this document, would present risks inconsistent with FIFRA. Accordingly, should a registrant fail to implement the risk mitigation measures, submit confirmatory data as well as make the label changes identified in this document, the Agency may take regulatory action to address the risk concerns from the use of formaldehyde and Paraformaldehyde 97%.

As the federal pesticide law FIFRA directs, EPA is conducting a comprehensive review of older pesticides to consider their health and environmental effects and make decisions about their continued use. Under this pesticide reregistration program, EPA examines newer health and safety data for pesticide active ingredients initially registered before November 1, 1984, and determines whether the use of the pesticide does not pose unreasonable risk in accordance to newer saftey standards, such as those described in the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996. Paraformaldehyde 97% is found on List A, which contains most pesticides that are used on foods and, hence, have a high potential for human exposure. List A consists of the 194 chemical cases (or 350 individual active ingredients) for which EPA issued registration standards prior to FIFRA '88. Case No: 0556; Pesticide type: fungicide, antimicrobial; Registration Standard Date: 05/31/88 PB88-231543; Case Status: OPP is reviewing data from the pesticide's producers regarding its human health and/or environmental effects, or OPP is determining the pesticide's eligibility for reregistration and developing the Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) document.; Active ingredient (AI): Paraformaldehyde 97%; AI Status: The producers of the pesticide have made commitments to conduct the studies and pay the fees required for reregistration, and are meeting those commitments in a timely manner. Paraformaldehyde 97% is an indirect food additive for use only as a component of adhesives. More decay was associated with tapholes in mature sugar maples (Acer saccharum) treated with a 250-mg Paraformaldehyde 97% pill than with control tapholes. This was apparent 20 months after treatment and at each successive examination to the final measurement at 56 months. Repeated use of Paraformaldehyde 97% leads to rapid development of decay in sugar maple. Paraformaldehyde 97% is listed as a synthetic organic chemical which should be degradable by biological sewage treatment provided suitable acclimatization can be achieved. Paraformaldehyde 97% is ubiquitous in the environment; it is an chemical that occurs in most life forms, including humans. It is formed naturally in the troposphere during the oxidation of hydrocarbons. Paraformaldehyde 97%'s production and use in the manufacture of a wide range of chemicals, such as resins, finding a variety of end uses such as wood products, plastics, and coatings may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. Its use as a fumigant in agricultural premises and as a surface disinfectant in commercial premises and its use as a corrosion inhibitor in oil wells and release from slow-release fertilizers result in its direct release to the environment. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 3,890 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates Paraformaldehyde 97% will exist solely as a gas in the atmosphere. Gas-phase Paraformaldehyde 97% will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is 45 hrs. Paraformaldehyde 97% absorbs ultraviolet radiation at wavelengths of >360 nm and is susceptible to direct photolysis. Paraformaldehyde 97% has a direct photolysis half-life of 4.1 hours measured at sea-level and 40 degrees latitude. Paraformaldehyde 97% has been detected in rainwater and adsorbed to atmospheric particulates indicating it may be removed from the air by wet and dry deposition. If released to soil, Paraformaldehyde 97% is expected to have very high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 8. In soil, Paraformaldehyde 97% gas can adsorb to clay minerals and interact with humic substances resulting in decreased mobility. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon a Henry's Law constant of 3.37X10-7 atm-cu m/mole. Paraformaldehyde 97% will volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon its vapor pressure. Paraformaldehyde 97% has been found to be readily biodegradable in various screening tests. Utilizing the Japanese MITI test, 91% of the Theoretical BOD was reached in 2 weeks indicating that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil and water. If released into water, Paraformaldehyde 97% is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the estimated Koc. In a die-away test using water from a stagnant lake, degradation was complete in 30 and 40 hrs under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, respectively. The half-life of Paraformaldehyde 97% has been reported between 1-7 days in surface water and 2-14 days in groundwater, based on estimated aqueous aerobic biodegradation half lives. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's Henry's Law constant. An estimated BCF of 3 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Paraformaldehyde 97% is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment because of the lack of hydrolyzable functional groups. Occupational exposure to Paraformaldehyde 97% may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where Paraformaldehyde 97% is produced or used. Monitoring data indicate that the general population may be exposed to Paraformaldehyde 97% via inhalation of ambient air (indoor and outdoor), inhalation of cigarette smoke, ingestion of food and possibly drinking water, and dermal contact with cosmetics, aerosol products and other consumer products containing Paraformaldehyde 97%. Concentrations of Paraformaldehyde 97% in outdoor and indoor air range from about 1 to 20 ug/cu m and 25 to 100 ug/cu m, respectively. Paraformaldehyde 97% is ubiquitous in the environment; it is an endogenous chemical that occurs in most life forms, including humans. It is formed naturally in the troposphere during the oxidation of hydrocarbons, which react with hydroxyl radicals and ozone to form Paraformaldehyde 97% and other aldehydes, as intermediates in a series of reactions that ultimately lead to the formation of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, hydrogen and water. Of the hydrocarbons found in the troposphere, methane is the single most important source of Paraformaldehyde 97%. Terpenes and isoprene, emitted by foliage, react with hydroxyl radicals, forming Paraformaldehyde 97% as an intermediate product. Because of their short half-life, these potentially important sources of Paraformaldehyde 97% are important only in the vicinity of vegetation. Paraformaldehyde 97% is one of the volatile compounds formed in the early stages of decomposition of plant residues in the soil. Paraformaldehyde 97% occurs naturally in fruits and other foods. Other sources are forest fires, animal wastes, microbial products of biological systems, and plant volatiles(2,3). Paraformaldehyde 97% can also be formed in seawater by photochemical processes. However, calculations of sea-air exchange indicates that this process is probably a minor source for Paraformaldehyde 97% in the sea. Paraformaldehyde 97%'s production and use in the manufacture of a wide range of chemicals, such as resins, finding a variety of end uses such as wood products, plastics, and coatings may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. Its use as a fumigant in agricultural premises and as a surface disinfectant in commercial premises and its use as a corrosion inhibitor in oil wells and release from slow-release fertilizers result in its direct release to the environment. Paraformaldehyde 97% is formed by the incomplete combustion of many organic substances and is present in coal and wood smoke and in cigarette smoke. Based on a classification scheme, an estimated Koc value of 8, determined from a log Kow of 0.35 and a regression-derived equation, indicates that Paraformaldehyde 97% is expected to have very high mobility in soil. In soil, Paraformaldehyde 97% gas can adsorb to clay minerals and interact with humic substances resulting in decreased mobility. Volatilization of Paraformaldehyde 97% from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process given a Henry's Law constant of 3.37X10-7 atm-cu m/mole. Paraformaldehyde 97% is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon a vapor pressure of 3,890 mm Hg at 25 °C. Paraformaldehyde 97% has been found to be readily biodegradable in various screening tests. Utilizing the Japanese MITI test, 91% of the Theoretical BOD was reached in 2 weeks indicating that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil.

Due to its ability to function as an oxidizer, 1,4-benzoquinone can be found in methods using the Wacker-Tsuji oxidation, wherein a palladium salt catalyzes the conversion of an alkene to a ketone.
This reaction is typically carried out using pressurized oxygen as the oxidizer, but benzoquinone can sometimes preferred.
p-benzoquinone is also used as a reagent in some variants on Wacker oxidations.



PRODUCTION METHODS OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
p-benzoquinone was produced as early as 1838 by oxidation of quinic acid with manganese dioxide.
p-benzoquinone can be prepared by oxidation starting with aniline or by the oxidation of hydroquinone with bromic acid.
More recently, p-benzoquinone has been made biosynthetically from D-glucose.



METABOLISM OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
1,4-Benzoquinone is a toxic metabolite found in human blood and can be used to track exposure to benzene or mixtures containing benzene and benzene compounds, such as petrol.
p-benzoquinone is excreted in its original form and also as variations of its own metabolite, hydroquinone.

DESCRIPTION:

P-Benzoquinone, para-quinone, is a chemical compound with the formula C6H4O2.
In a pure state, P-Benzoquinone forms bright-yellow crystals with a characteristic irritating odor, resembling that of chlorine, bleach, and hot plastic or formaldehyde.
This six-membered ring compound is the oxidized derivative of 1,4-hydroquinone.


CAS Number :106-51-4
EC Number :203-405-2
Linear Formula: C6H4(=O)2

SYNONYM(S) OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
Quinone, 1,4-Benzoquinone[1];Benzoquinone;p-Benzoquinone;p-Quinone


The molecule is multifunctional: P-Benzoquinone exhibits properties of a ketone, being able to form oximes; an oxidant, forming the dihydroxy derivative; and an alkene, undergoing addition reactions, especially those typical for α,β-unsaturated ketones.
P-Benzoquinone is sensitive toward both strong mineral acids and alkali, which cause condensation and decomposition of the compound.


P-Benzoquinone is used as a dienophile in Diels-Alder cycloadditions to prepare naphthoquinones and 1,4-phenanthrenediones.
P-Benzoquinone acts as a dehydrogenation reagent and an oxidizer in synthetic organic chemistry.
In the Thiele-Winter reaction, it is involved in the preparation of triacetate of hydroxyquinol by reacting with acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid.

P-Benzoquinone is also used in the synthesis of bromadol and to suppress double- bond migration during olefin metathesis reactions.
P-Benzoquinone is used as a precursor to hydroquinone which finds application in photography and as a reducing agent and an antioxidant in rubber production.


p-Benzoquinone (PBQ) is a cyclic conjugated diketone.
Its high-resolution photoelectron spectrum has been reported.
The visible and near ultraviolet spectra of PBQ have been recorded and analyzed.

Its addition as coagent has been reported to enhance the crosslinking rate of polypropylene initiated by the pyrolysis of peroxides.
Its impact on hemoglobin (Hb) has been investigated based on immunoblots and mass spectral analysis of a smoker′s blood.


PREPARATION OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
1,4-Benzoquinone is prepared industrially by oxidation of hydroquinone, which can be obtained by several routes.
One route involves oxidation of diisopropylbenzene and the Hock rearrangement.
The net reaction can be represented as follows:
C6H4(CHMe2)2 + 3 O2 → C6H4O2 + 2 OCMe2 + H2O

The reaction proceeds via the bis(hydroperoxide) and the hydroquinone.
Acetone is a coproduct.
Another major process involves the direct hydroxylation of phenol by acidic hydrogen peroxide: C6H5OH + H2O2 → C6H4(OH)2 + H2O Both hydroquinone and catechol are produced.

Subsequent oxidation of the hydroquinone gives the quinone.[8]
Quinone was originally prepared industrially by oxidation of aniline, for example by manganese dioxide.
This method is mainly practiced in PRC where environmental regulations are more relaxed.

Oxidation of hydroquinone is facile.
One such method makes use of hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizer and iodine or an iodine salt as a catalyst for the oxidation occurring in a polar solvent; e.g. isopropyl alcohol.
When heated to near its melting point, 1,4-benzoquinone sublimes, even at atmospheric pressure, allowing for an effective purification.
Impure samples are often dark-colored due to the presence of quinhydrone, a dark green 1:1 charge-transfer complex of quinone with hydroquinone.

STRUCTURE AND REDOX OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
C–C and C–O bond distances in benzoquinone (Q), its 1e reduced derivative (Q−), and hydroquinone (H2Q).
Benzoquinone is a planar molecule with localized, alternating C=C, C=O, and C–C bonds.
Reduction gives the semiquinone anion C6H4O2−}, which adopts a more delocalized structure.
Further reduction coupled to protonation gives the hydroquinone, wherein the C6 ring is fully delocalized.


REACTIONS AND APPLICATIONS OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
Quinone is mainly used as a precursor to hydroquinone, which is used in photography and rubber manufacture as a reducing agent and antioxidant.
Benzoquinonium is a skeletal muscle relaxant, ganglion blocking agent that is made from benzoquinone.


ORGANIC SYNTHESIS OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
P-Benzoquinone is used as a hydrogen acceptor and oxidant in organic synthesis.
1,4-Benzoquinone serves as a dehydrogenation reagent.
P-Benzoquinone is also used as a dienophile in Diels Alder reactions.


Benzoquinone reacts with acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid to give the triacetate of hydroxyquinol.
This reaction is called the Thiele reaction or Thiele–Winter reaction[19][20] after Johannes Thiele, who first described it in 1898, and after Ernst Winter, who further described its reaction mechanism in 1900.

An application is found in this step of the total synthesis of Metachromin A:
Benzoquinone is also used to suppress double-bond migration during olefin metathesis reactions.
An acidic potassium iodide solution reduces a solution of benzoquinone to hydroquinone, which can be reoxidized back to the quinone with a solution of silver nitrate.
Due to its ability to function as an oxidizer, 1,4-benzoquinone can be found in methods using the Wacker-Tsuji oxidation, wherein a palladium salt catalyzes the conversion of an alkene to a ketone.

This reaction is typically carried out using pressurized oxygen as the oxidizer, but benzoquinone can sometimes preferred.
P-Benzoquinone is also used as a reagent in some variants on Wacker oxidations.
1,4-Benzoquinone is used in the synthesis of Bromadol and related analogs.


2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) is a stronger oxidant and dehydrogenation agent than 1,4-benzoquinone.
Chloranil 1,4-C6Cl4O2 is another potent oxidant and dehydrogenation agent.
Monochloro-p-benzoquinone is yet another but milder oxidant.


METABOLISM OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
1,4-Benzoquinone is a toxic metabolite found in human blood and can be used to track exposure to benzene or mixtures containing benzene and benzene compounds, such as petrol.
The compound can interfere with cellular respiration, and kidney damage has been found in animals receiving severe exposure.
It is excreted in its original form and also as variations of its own metabolite, hydroquinone.


APPLICATIONS OF P-BENZOQUINONE:
p-Benzoquinone may be used to form benzofuranone derivatives on reacting with anilides of β-aminocrotonic acids via Nenitzescu reaction.

The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 10 hours.
PCL-Liquid was then recovered, washed with ice water, and neutralized with Na2CO3 aqueous solution (10%).
Under normal pressure, isopropyl alcohol and water were distilled. While under reduced pressure, PCL-Liquid was distilled (185°C/1.0kPa~195°C/2.7kPa).

(2) 90 kg isopropyl alcohol was added into the reaction vessel and then sulfuric acid as catalyst, with 5% of the total amount, was added.
During mixing, 228 kg myristic acid was added slowly.
The mixture was heated to reflux and water was continuously separated.
Until no water was separated, the reaction temperature was reduced and probe was obtained to measure the acid value.
When the acid value reached 1.5 mg KOH/g, the reaction was completed.
Alkali was then added for neutralization.
After the removal of water under reduced pressure, the pressure was further reduced for dealcoholization until the acid value was 0.05~1.0 mg KOH/g.
The final product is then PCL-Liquid.

PCL-Solid performs like gutta-percha, has similar handling properties, and for re-treatment purposes may be softened with heat, or dissolved with solvents like chloroform.
Similar to gutta-percha, there are master cones in all ISO sizes and accessory cones in different sizes and taper available.
The major difference between the polycaprolactone-based root canal filling material (Resilon and Real Seal) and gutta-percha is that the PCL-Solid is biodegradable, whereas gutta-percha is not.
There is a lack of consensus in the expert dental community as to whether a biodegradable root canal filling material, such as Resilon or Real Seal is desirable.

Properties and Applications
PCL-Solid is a biodegradable, semicrystalline polyester for use in tissue engineering and drug delivery research applications.
Due to the increased length of the aliphatic chain, PCL-Solid degrades significantly slower than other common biodegradable polymers, such as polylactide.
PCL-Solid features a low melting point (55-60 °C), making it ideal for thermal processing and increasing its use in novel applications such as 3D bioprinting.
In addition to its favorable thermal properties, PCL-Solid also features high solubility in organic solvent allowing for a multitude of other processing options.
PCL-Solidfeatures low residual water, monomer, and catalyst (tin) making it an ideal choice for use in tissue engineering and 3D bioprinting research.

Synthesis
PCL-Solid is prepared by ring opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone using a catalyst such as stannous octoate.
A wide range of catalysts can be used for the ring opening polymerization of caprolactone.

PCMX
PCMX Chloroxylenol, also known as para-chloro-meta-xylenol (PCMX), is an antiseptic and disinfectant which is used for skin disinfection, and together with alcohol for cleaning surgical instruments.[2] PCMX is also used within a number of household disinfectants and wound cleaners.[3] PCMX is thought to act by disrupting microbial cell walls and inactivating cellular enzymes, and is less effective than some other available agents. PCMX is available as a liquid. History of PCMX PCMX was first made in 1927. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[8] It is sold in a number of formulations and under a number of brand names, including Dettol. Soon after it was created parachlorometaxylenol was then called PCMX, but this was thought to be a poor name and it was renamed Dettol. Then in 1932 it was marketed in Britain and in India. It had a white on green bottle with a white sword depicted. PCMX is sold, in the same style bottle, in Argentina and Uruguay to this day. Properties of PCMX Side effects are generally few but can include skin irritation.[2][5] It may be used mixed with water or alcohol. PCMX is most effective against gram-positive bacteria.[2] It works by disruption of the cell wall and stopping the function of enzymes. Uses of PCMX PCMX is used in hospitals and households for disinfection and sanitation. It is also commonly used in antibacterial soaps, wound-cleansing applications and household antiseptics such as Dettol liquid (to which it contributes its distinctive odor), cream and ointments.[13]Following independent laboratory testing specific Dettol products have demonstrated effectiveness against the Covid-19 virus (SARS-CoV-2) when used in accordance with the directions for use. Side effects of PCMX PCMX is not significantly toxic to humans, is practically non-toxic to birds, and is moderately toxic to freshwater invertebrates. It is highly toxic to fish, cats, and some amphibians and should not be used around them. PCMX is a mild skin irritant and may trigger allergic reactions in some individuals. Humans Excessive exposure to PCMX has the potential for causing death. It can be poisonous when swallowed and even when it is unintentionally inhaled. A medical study in Hong Kong which analyzed 177 cases of Dettol ingestion that resulted in emergency department treatment (95% of which were intentional), concluded that "Dettol poisoning resulted in serious complications in 7% of patients, including death." Animals PCMX is toxic to many animals, especially cats. Phenolic compounds are of particular concern because cats are unable to fully metabolize them. A cat may swallow the product by licking its paws after they have come into contact with it. In Australia, PCMX spray has been shown to be lethal to cane toads, an invasive species that was introduced from Hawaii as a result of bad judgment in 1935. It had been hoped that the amphibian would control the cane beetle but it became highly destructive within the ecosystem. Spraying the disinfectant at close range has been shown to cause rapid death to toads. PCMX is not known whether the toxins are persistent or whether they harm other Australian flora and fauna. Owing to concerns over potential harm to other Australian wildlife species, the use of PCMX as an agent for pest control was banned in Western Australia by the Department of Environment and Conservation in 2011. Society and culture A number of brand names are available. PCMX is the active ingredient in Dettol. PCMX comprises 4.8% of Dettol's total admixture,[19] with the rest made up by pine oil, isopropanol, castor oil, soap and water. Chloroxylenol (PCMX) also called 4-Chloro-3, 5-dimethylphenol, is a white crystal. PCMX is a secure, high-efficient, broad spectrum and low-toxic antiseptic. PCMX has large potency to Gram-positive, Gram-negative, epiphyte and mildew approved by FDA . PCMX has good chemical stability and doesn’t lose the activity in normal storage conditions. Solubility in water is 0.03 wt%, freely soluble in organic solvent such as alcohols, ethers, polyglycols, etc. and solutions of alkali hydroxides frequently used in personal clean care products. This product (PCMX) is low-poison antibacterial, frequently used in personal care products such as hand - cleaning detergent, soap, dandruff control shampoo and healthy products, etc. Common dosage in lotion as follows: 0.5~1wt% in liquid detergent, 1wt% in antibacterial handing detergent, 4.5~5 wt% in disinfectant. What’s more, PCMX has been used in other fields such as glue, painting, textile, pulp, etc. This study examines the bactericidal and fungicidal efficiency of parachlorometaxylenol (PCMX) and its active ingredient, chlorxylenol at 10% and 20% concentrations, on four microbial isolates from abattoirs' (slaughter houses) floors in an open environment in Port Harcourt metropolis, Rivers State Nigeria. The study was carried out between the months of January 2005 and June 2006. Mixed culture of Vibrio species, Salmonella sp, Campylobacter sp and Candida albicans isolated from five different abattoirs: Agip, Trans -Amadi, Woji, Rumuodara and Rumuokoro: were used as test bacteria and fungi respectively, using agar diffusion and tranditional plate count methods. The four microbial isolates were exposed to parachlorometaxylenol (PCMX) and chlorxylenol after the addition of quenching agent (QAC), at time interval starting from Omin, lOmin, 20min, 30min, 40,min, 50min,and 60min. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was calculated on the resistance and the susceptibility of these four isolates to the test disinfectants, the results showed that there was no significant difference in the test disinfectants effectiveness on these test organisms. The findings showed that Vibrio, Salmonella and Campylobacter were more sensitive to parachlorometaxylenol (PCMX) also called Dettol, while Candida albicans was more sensitive to Chlorxylenol. Also observed from this work is candidiasis infection through cross-contamination can be taken care of in the body of its victim by washing in 10% chloroxylenol. At ambient temperature, a 25% solution of PCMX in isopropanol is not corrosive to stainless steel or aluminum. Brass is slightly affected as is mild steel. Mild steel is slightly affected by isopropanol alone. PCMX is stable when exposed to sunlight and humidity from ambient storage over 24 hours. It is also stable at elevated temperatures (54 °C). Choroxylenol is hydrolytically stable. Drug Indication of PCMX The predominant medical applications for which PCMX is formally indicated for therapeutic use is as an application to the skin for use in cuts, bites, stings, abrasions, and for use as antiseptic hand cleaner. PCMX is a substituted phenol which has been widely used for many years as an ingredient of antiseptic and disinfectant products intended for external use [L1999]. PCMX is known to be bactericidal in low concentration to a wide range of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. Absorption No PCMX was detected in the blood following the dermal administration of 2 g of p-PCMX in an ethanol/olive oil vehicle in human subjects. After a dose of 5 g, only traces were found, after 8 g, 1 mg % (1 mg/dL) was found in the blood after 3 hours, and 4 mg % (4 mg/dL) after 24 hours [A32349]. After a dose of 20 g, 4 mg % (4 mg/dL) was measured after half an hour, and 1 mg % (1 mg/dL) was present at 72 hours [A32349]. For antiseptic purposes, PCMX is considered to be well-absorbed when applied to the skin. Volume of Distribution The only data available regarding the volume of distribution of PCMX is the mean Vss of 22.45 L determined after 200 mg intravenous single dose of PCMX was administered to healthy mongrel dog subjects. Clearance The only data available regarding the clearance of PCMX is the mean clearance rate of 13.76 L/hr following a 200 mg intravenous single dose of the substance into healthy mongrel dog subjects [L1989, L1993]. Moreover, in another study, when 8 g of PCMX was administered dermal on a human subject in an alcohol/glycerin vehicle, 11% was excreted in 48 hours. The pharmacokinetic and metabolic profile of p-chloro-m-xylenol (PCMX) was studied in healthy mongrel dogs after intravenous and oral administration of single doses of 200 and 2000 mg of PCMX, respectively. ... The mean half-life and mean residence time were 1.84 and 1.69 hr. respectively. The apparent volume of distribution at steady state was estimated to be 22.4 liters, and the plasma clearance was 14.6 liters/hr. The bioavailability of PCMX was 21%. ... PCMX's metabolite data show that a presystemic elimination process (first-pass effect) is also occurring. PCMX plasma concentrations after intravenous administration of 500-, 200-, and 100-mg doses were found to be proportional to the dose given. Metabolism/Metabolites Certain animal studies have shown that following dermal application of PCMX, that the absorption was rapid with a Cmax = 1-2 hours, and that the administered substance was excreted via the kidney with almost complete elimination within 24 hours. The primary metabolites discovered in the excreted urine were glucuronides and sulfates [L1992]. Some PCMX monographs liken its pharmacokinetic profile to that of another antiseptic - triclosan - which is rapidly excreted in the urine also as a glucuronide metabolite, as observed in the human model. Moreover, In one human subject administered 5 mg intragluteally, 14% was excreted with glucuronic acid and 17% with sulfuric acid at 3 days. Any PCMX absorbed into the body is likely extensively metabolized by the liver and rapidly excreted, mainly in the urine, as sulphate and glucuronide conjugates. One study estimated the mean terminal half-life and mean residence time after a 200 mg intravenous single dose of PCMX in healthy mongrel dog subjects to be 1.7 and 1.69 hours, respectively. Alternatively, some product monographs liken PCMX to a similar liquid antiseptic, triclosan, whose calculated urinary excretion half-life in man is approximately 10 hours. As a phenol antiseptic, it is believed that the hydroxyl -OH groups of the PCMX molecule binds to certain proteins on the cell membrane of bacteria, and disrupts the membrane so as to allow the contents of the bacterial cell to leak out [A1351]. This allows PCMX to enter the bacterial cell to bind further with more proteins and enzymes to disable the cell's functioning [A1351]. At particularly high concentrations of PCMX, the protein and nucleic acid content of targeted bacterial cells become coagulated and cease to function, leading to rapid cell death. Pursuant to section 8(d) of TSCA, EPA promulgated a model Health and Safety Data Reporting Rule. The section 8(d) model rule requires manufacturers, importers, and processors of listed chemical substances and mixtures to submit to EPA copies and lists of unpublished health and safety studies. PCMX is included on this list. Section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA calls for the Agency to determine, after submission of relevant data concerning an active ingredient, whether products containing the active ingredients are eligible for reregistration. The Agency has previously identified and required the submission of the generic (i.e. active ingredient specific) data required to support reregistration of products containing PCMX active ingredients. The Agency has completed its review of these generic data, and has determined that the data are sufficient to support reregistration of all products containing PCMX. Drug products containing certain active ingredients offered over-the-counter (OTC) for certain uses. A number of active ingredients have been present in OTC drug products for various uses, as described below. However, based on evidence currently available, there are inadequate data to establish general recognition of the safety and effectiveness of these ingredients for the specified uses: PCMX is included in topical acne drug products. Toxicity Summary of PCMX As PCMX is predominantly employed as an active ingredient in various liquids or creams as cleaners, disinfectants, or antiseptics that are generally designed to be used topically, it is widely accepted that the use of such liquids - when used appropriately - is unlikely to present a sufficient volume that could be ingested to cause any medical problems [L1992]. In the event of accidental eye contact, was with Luke warm water [L1992]. PCMX is known to have a low systemic toxicity, even at dosage levels many times higher that those likely to be absorbed during normal usage of the agent. Environmental Fate/Exposure Summary of PCMX PCMX's production and use as an antibacterial, germicide, antiseptic and in mildew prevention may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 0.1 mm Hg at 20 °C indicates PCMX will exist solely as a vapor in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase PCMX will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 5.8 hours. PCMX does not absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and has been reported to be stable to sunlight for up to 24 hours. If released to soil, PCMX is expected to have low mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 1,400. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.1X10-7 atm-cu m/mole. PCMX is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon its vapor pressure. Volatilization from water surfaces is expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's estimated Henry's Law constant. Estimated volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 10 hours and 9 days, respectively. Degradation of PCMX appears to be slower than other phenol derivatives. Studies in sewage showed 80-95% of the original compound remaining after 2 days and 60-70% remaining after 7 days. This is consistent with other studies that showed less than 40% degradation in activated sludge over 7 days. If released into water, PCMX is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the estimated Koc. An estimated BCF of 66 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate. Hydrolysis is not expected to be an important environmental fate process since this compound lacks functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions. Occupational exposure to PCMX may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where PCMX is produced or used. The most likely route of exposure to the general population is through dermal contact when using soaps or cleaning products that contain PCMX as an antibacterial. A smaller population may be exposed to PCMX when taking medications that contain PCMX as an active ingredient. PCMX's production and use as an antibacterial, germicide, antiseptic and in mildew prevention(1) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1,400(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 3.27(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that PCMX is expected to have low mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of PCMX from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.1X10-7 atm-cu m/mol(SRC), derived using a fragment constant estimation method(4). PCMX is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(4). Degradation of PCMX appears to be slower than other phenol derivatives(5,6). Studies in sewage showed 95-80% of the original compound remaining after 2 days and 60-70% remaining after 7 days(5). This is consistent with other studies that showed less than 40% degradation in activated sludge over 7 days(6). ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), PCMX, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 1.8X10-3 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase PCMX is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 6 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 6.7X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). PCMX does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and has been reported to be stable to sunlight for up 24 hours(5). The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of PCMX with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 6.7X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 5.8 hours at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(1). PCMX is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions(2). PCMX does not absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(3) and has been reported to be stable to sunlight for up to 24 hours(4). An estimated BCF of 66 was calculated for PCMX(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.27(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC), provided the compound is not metabolized by the organism(SRC). The Koc of PCMX is estimated as 1,400(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.27(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that PCMX is expected to have low mobility in soil. The Henry's Law constant for PCMX is estimated as 5.1X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) using a fragment constant estimation method(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that PCMX is expected to be essentially nonvolatile from moist soil and water surfaces(2). PCMX is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 1.8X10-3 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(3). Occupational exposure to PCMX may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where PCMX is produced or used(SRC). The most likely route of exposure to the general population is through dermal contact when using soaps or cleaning products that contain PCMX as an antibacterial(SRC). A smaller population may be exposed to PCMX when taking medications that contain PCMX as an active ingredient(1). Because of the broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity of para-chlorometa- xylenol (PCMX) and the need for additional topical agents for bacterial control of the burn wound, PCMX was tested in an in vitro topical antimicrobial susceptibility well assay system. For testing, data from 50 strains of Staphvlococcus aureus and 100 strains of various gram-negative micro-organisms were isolated from wounds of acute burn patients. Results showed that burns colonized by organisms other than P. aeruginosa could be treated with PCMX as a single agent, whereas burn wounds not so colonized could be treated with mixtures of PCMX and an antimicrobial that has anli-Pseudomonas activity. Alternatively, PCMX could be mixed with antimicrobials against which organisms show random resistance and thus expand their spectrum of activity. Therefore, further testing and development of PCMX as a topical antimicrobial preparation seems warranted. Para-Chloro-Meta-Xylenol (PCMX) is an antiseptic and disinfectant. Used for skin disinfection and cleaning surgical instruments. It is also used within a number of household disinfectants and wound cleaners. PCMX is an antimicrobial chemical compound used as a preservative to control bacteria, algae, and fungi in adhesives, emulsions, paints, cooling fluids, glue, cosmetics, hygiene products such as hair conditioners and deodorants, topical medications, urinary antiseptics and metal working fluids. Liquid PCMX solutions are used for cleaning and disinfecting wounds, abrasions and abscesses while creams are used for cuts, scratches, insect bites, and burns. Powders are used to treat problems of the feet and skin inflammations. Uses of PCMX: Preservative in cooling fluids, creams, topical and urinary antiseptics. Chloroxylenol (PCMX) acts against a wide range of bacteria. Liquids are used for the cleaning and disinfecting of wounds and abrasions as well as abscesses. The creams are used for cuts, scratches, insect bites, burns and similar problems. Powders can be used to treat tinea problems of the feet and skin inflammations. Also in pharmaceutical products, hair conditioners, toilet and deodorants, soaps, electrocardiogram paste, etc. Chloroxylenol, or para-chloro-meta-xylenol (PCMX), is an antiseptic and disinfectant agent used for skin disinfection and surgical instruments. PCMX is found in antibacterial soaps, wound-cleansing applications, and household antiseptics. The halophenol is shown to be most effective against Gram positive bacteria where it disrupts the cell wall due to its phenolic nature 1. PCMX is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. PCMX is a substituted phenol which has been widely used for many years as an ingredient of antiseptic and disinfectant products intended for external use. It is known to be bactericidal in low concentration to a wide range of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. As a phenol antiseptic, it is believed that the hydroxyl -OH groups of the PCMX molecule binds to certain proteins on the cell membrane of bacteria, and disrupts the membrane so as to allow the contents of the bacterial cell to leak out. This allows PCMX to enter the bacterial cell to bind further with more proteins and enzymes to disable the cell's functioning. At particularly high concentrations of PCMX, the protein and nucleic acid content of targeted bacterial cells become coagulated and cease to function, leading to rapid cell death. Volume of distribution The only data available regarding the volume of distribution of PCMX is the mean Vss of 22.45 L determined after 200 mg intravenous single dose of PCMX was administered to healthy mongrel dog subjects 6,8. Protein binding One study determined the protein binding of PCMX to be approximately 85.2% +/- 2.32% for serum albumin and 89.8% +/- 2.99% for whole human serum. Metabolism Certain animal studies have shown that following dermal application of PCMX, that the absorption was rapid with a Cmax = 1-2 hours, and that the administered substance was excreted via the kidney with almost complete elimination within 24 hours. The primary metabolites discovered in the excreted urine were glucuronides and sulfates. Some PCMX monographs liken its pharmacokinetic profile to that of another antiseptic - triclosan - which is rapidly excreted in the urine also as a glucuronide metabolite, as observed in the human model. Moreover, In one human subject administered 5 mg intragluteally, 14% was excreted with glucuronic acid and 17% with sulfuric acid at 3 days 4. Any PCMX absorbed into the body is likely extensively metabolized by the liver and rapidly excreted, mainly in the urine, as sulphate and glucuronide conjugates. Route of elimination of PCMX The major route of excretion is likely in urine 8,7, although some amounts may be found in bile and traces in exhaled air. Half-life One study estimated the mean terminal half-life and mean residence time after a 200 mg intravenous single dose of PCMX in healthy mongrel dog subjects to be 1.7 and 1.69 hours, respectively 6,8. Alternatively, some product monographs liken PCMX to a similar liquid antiseptic, triclosan, whose calculated urinary excretion half-life in man is approximately 10 hours. Clearance of PCMX The only data available regarding the clearance of PCMX is the mean clearance rate of 13.76 L/hr following a 200 mg intravenous single dose of the substance into healthy mongrel dog subjects. Moreover, in another study, when 8 g of PCMX was administered dermal on a human subject in an alcohol/glycerin vehicle, 11% was excreted in 48 hours. Toxicity of PCMX As PCMX is predominantly employed as an active ingredient in various liquids or creams as cleaners, disinfectants, or antiseptics that are generally designed to be used topically, it is widely accepted that the use of such liquids - when used appropriately - is unlikely to present a sufficient volume that could be ingested to cause any medical problems 7. In the event of accidental eye contact, was with Luke warm water 7. PCMX is known to have a low systemic toxicity, even at dosage levels many times higher that those likely to be absorbed during normal usage of the agent. Drug overdose There have been many cases of intoxication with oral PCMX liquid, a widespread household disinfectant that contains PCMX 4.8%, pine oil, and isopropyl alcohol [4–8]. PCMX was involved in 10% of hospital admissions related to self-poisoning in Hong Kong. In a retrospective study of 67 cases, serious complications were relatively common (8%) and these included aspiration of PCMX with gastric contents, resulting in pneumonia, cardiopulmonary arrest, bronchospasm, adult respiratory distress syndrome, and severe laryngeal edema with upper airway obstruction. Of 89 patients, five developed minor hematemesis, in the form of coffee-colored or blood-stained vomitus [6]. One patient had a gastroscopy performed on the day after admission, which showed signs of chemical burns in the esophagus and stomach. Gastroscopy in another patient on day 11, done to rule out an esophageal stricture, showed no abnormality. All patients with hematemesis recovered completely. The authors suggest that upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage after PCMX ingestion tends to be mild and self-limiting. Gastroscopy, which may increase the risk of aspiration in patients with impaired consciousness, is not required unless other causes of gastrointestinal bleeding are suspected. Furthermore, PCMX poisoning can be associated with an increased risk of aspiration, possibly caused by the use of gastrointestinal lavage in 88% of the patients and vomiting in 62%. Of 121 patients who ingested PCMX 200–500 ml, three developed renal impairment, as evidenced by raised plasma urea and creatinine [7]. Two of these patients also had serious complications, including aspiration leading to pneumonia and adult respiratory distress syndrome; one died. Renal impairment only appears to be observed when relatively large amounts of PCMX are ingested [7]. PCMX is used in cosmetic products as an antimicrobial at concentrations up to 5.0 percent. It is absorbed through the human skin and gastrointestinal tract. Following oral ingestion by a human of a product formulated with PCMX, both free and conjugated PCMX were detected in the urine. PCMX at 100 percent concentration was a moderate irritant to the rabbit eye, whereas a 0.1 percent aqueous PCMX solution was a nonirritant to rabbit skin. PCMX was nonmutagenic in the Salmonella mutagenesis assay, both with and without metabolic activation. No carcinogenicity or adequate teratogenicity studies have been reported. In clinical studies, formulations containing up to 1 .O percent Chloroxyleno1 were nonsensitizing and essentially nonirritating to the skin. The incidence of skin sensitization among 1752 dermatitis patients exposed to 1 .O percent PCMX was less than 1 .O percent. On the basis of the available information included in this report, it is concluded that PCMX is safe as a cosmetic ingredient in the present practices of use.

PEG 100 STEARATE
PEG 100 Stearate PEG 100 Stearate is a polyethylene glycol ester of stearic acid. PEG 100 Stearate functions as an effective emollient, emulsifier and surfactant. PEG 100 Stearate is used in facial cleansers, creams and lotions, shampoos. PEG 100 STEARATE is classified as : Surfactant CAS Number: 9004-99-3 COSING REF No: 77453 Chem/IUPAC Name: Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), .alpha.-(1-oxooctadecyl)-.omega.-hydroxy- (100 mol EO average molar ratio) What Is It? Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Stearates (PEG-2 Stearate, PEG-6 Stearate, PEG-8 Stearate, PEG-12 Stearate, PEG-20 Stearate, PEG-32 Stearate, PEG-40 Stearate, PEG-50 Stearate, PEG 100 Stearate, PEG-150 Stearate) are esters of polyethylene glycol and stearic acid. The PEG Stearates are soft to waxy solids that are white to tan in color. In cosmetics and personal care products, PEG Stearates are used in skin creams, conditioners, shampoos, body cleansers and soapless detergents. Why is it used in cosmetics and personal care products? The PEG 100 Stearates clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away. Scientific Facts: The PEG 100 Stearates are produced from stearic acid, a naturally occurring fatty acid. The numerical value of each PEG Stearate corresponds to the average number of ethylene oxide monomers in the polyethylene chain. Polyethylene glycol ingredients may also be named with a number that indicates molecular weight, for example polyethylene glycol (400) stearate is another name for PEG-8 Stearate. Why is PEG 100 Stearate in My Skincare Product? PEG or polyethylene glycol stearate is an ingredient that is used in skincare and body care products. PEG 100 stearate is a soft waxy substance used in moisturizers, conditioners, shampoos, cleansers, and soap-free detergents. The 100 in PEG 100 stearate refers to the number of ethylene oxide monomers present on the molecule. PEG 100 stearate is mainly utilized in your skincare products due to its emulsifying abilities. Emulsifiers help to mix oil and water-based ingredients so that they produce a smooth, stable texture. This emulsifying characteristic of PEG 100 stearate also helps to lift oil and dirt from the skin so that it can be rinsed away, making it a staple addition to cleansers and body washes. PEG 100 stearate is a PEG; PEGs are a class of ingredients that have been involved in controversy over their use, particularly from the clean or green beauty industry. This controversy is in part due to claims that it is linked to toxicity within the body due to the presence of impurities during the manufacturing process. This toxicity claim has been evaluated by both the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel, both of these groups are responsible for evaluation and regulation of skincare ingredients in the US. Through their research, they determined PEG compounds safe for their indicated uses in skincare and personal care products. In 2002 the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel reviewed newly available data and reaffirmed the approval. However, if you are concerned, discuss PEG 100 Stearate with a doctor or dermatologist, who can advise you whether your medical history may place you at risk with this ingredient. THE GOOD:PEG 100 stearate is used as an emollient and a moisturizer THE NOT SO GOOD: WHO IS IT FOR?All skin types except those that have an identified allergy to it. SYNERGETIC INGREDIENTS:Works well with most ingredients KEEP AN EYE ON:Due to kidney issues associated with the use of PEG 100 stearate products on burn patients, it is recommended to not use PEG 100 stearate containing products on broken skin. Is PEG 100 Stearate Safe? Toxicity The safety of PEG compounds has been called into question in recent years. The questioning of the safety of this ingredient is due to toxicity concerns that result from impurities found in PEG compounds. The impurities of concern are ethylene oxide and 1,4 dioxane, both are by-products of the manufacturing process. Both 1,4 dioxane and ethylene oxide have been suggested to be linked with breast and uterine cancers. While these impurities may have been a concern previously, ingredient manufacturers and improved processes have eliminated the risk of impurities in the final product. The level of impurities that were found initially in PEG manufacturing was low in comparison to the levels proposed to be linked to cancers. Longitudinal studies or studies over a long period of use of PEG compounds have not found any significant toxicity or any significant impact on reproductive health. When applied topically, PEG 100 Stearate is not believed to pose significant dangers to human health. It doesn’t penetrate deeply into the skin and isn’t thought to have bioaccumulation concerns when used topically. Irritation Through research, PEG compounds have exhibited evidence that they are non-irritating ingredients to the eyes or the skin. This research used highly concentrated forms of the ingredient, concentrations that would not be found in your skincare products. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel found PEG compounds to be non-photosensitizing and non-irritating at concentrations up to 100%. However, despite the evidence suggesting that PEG compounds are non-irritating, some research has indicated that irritation can occur when the skin is broken or already irritated. In a study that was trialing the use of PEG containing antimicrobial cream on burn patients, some patients experienced kidney toxicity. The concentration of PEG compounds was identified to be the culprit. Given that there was no evidence of toxicity in any study of PEGs and intact skin, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel amended their safety guidelines to exclude the use of PEG containing products on broken or damaged skin. Is PEG 100 Stearate Vegan? Depending on the source of the stearic acid used to make PEG 100 stearate, it may be vegan. Most of the time, stearic acid is derived from plants. However, it can also be derived from animal origin. If it is of animal origin, the product has to comply with animal by-product regulation. Check with the brand you are thinking of using to determine whether their PEG 100 stearate is derived from a plant or animal source. Why Is PEG 100 Stearate Used? Emulsifier PEG 100 Stearate is included in skincare and beauty products for a variety of reasons, ranging from making the skin softer to helping product formulations better keep their original consistency. As an emollient, PEG 100 stearate is included within skincare product formulations to give the skin a softer feel. It achieves this through strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier by forming a thin fatty layer on the skin’s surface, which prevents moisture loss and increases overall hydration. This moisturizing effect increases the hydration of skin cells, which in turn makes the skin softer and boosts skin health. Texture Another use for PEG 100 stearate has to do with its emulsification properties. Emulsifiers are valued in the skincare and personal care industries because of their ability to mix water and oils. Without this ability, the oils in many formulations would begin to separate from the water molecules, thus undermining product texture and consistency. PEG 100 stearate is also used to help to cleanse through mixing oil and dirt so that it can be rinsed away. Surfactant Lastly, PEG 100 stearate can also act as a surfactant, when used in body and facial cleansers. Surfactants disrupt surface tension, helping to mix water and oil. This characteristic helps the ingredient cleanse the skin by mixing oil with water, lifting dirt trapped inside the skin’s oils, and rinsing it away from the skin. What Types of Products Contain PEG 100 Stearate? There are many products in the skin and personal care industry that are formulated with PEG 100 stearate because of its benefits to formulations and its relative safety. Facial cleansers, shampoos, lotions, and face creams have all been known to contain this ingredient. If you’ve had problems with this ingredient before, or if your doctor has advised you to stay away from PEG 100 stearate, it’s vital to read ingredient labels for any personal care product as it has many applications. What are PEGs? You have probably noticed that many of cosmetics and personal care products you use have different types of PEGs among ingredients. PEG, which is the abbreviation of polyethylene glycol, is not a definitive chemical entity in itself, but rather a mixture of compounds, of polymers that have been bonded together. Polyethylene is the most common form of plastic, and when combined with glycol, it becomes a thick and sticky liquid. PEGs are almost often followed by a number, for example PEG-6, PEG-8, PEG 100 and so on. This number represents the approximate molecular weight of that compound. Typically, cosmetics use PEGs with smaller molecular weights. The lower the molecular weight, the easier it is for the compound to penetrate the skin. Often, PEGs are connected to another molecule. You might see, for example, PEG 100 stearate as an ingredient. This means that the polyethylene glycol polymer with an approximate molecular weight of 100 is attached chemically to stearic acid. In cosmetics, PEGs function in three ways: as emollients (which help soften and lubricate the skin), as emulsifiers (which help water-based and oil-based ingredients mix properly), and as vehicles that help deliver other ingredients deeper into the skin. What effect do PEG 100 Stearate have on your skin? Polyethylene glycol compounds have not received a lot of attention from consumer groups but they should. The most important thing to know about PEGs is that they have a penetration enhancing effect, the magnitude of which is dependent upon a variety of variables. These include: both the structure and molecular weight of the PEG, other chemical constituents in the formula, and, most importantly, the overall health of the skin. PEGs of all sizes may penetrate through injured skin with compromised barrier function. So it is very important to avoid products with PEGs if your skin is not in best condition. Skin penetration enhancing effects have been shown with PEG-2 and PEG-9 stearate. This penetration enhancing effect is important for three reasons: 1) If your skin care product contains a bunch of other undesirable ingredients, PEGs will make it easier for them to get down deep into your skin. 2) By altering the surface tension of the skin, PEGs may upset the natural moisture balance. 3) PEG 100 Stearate are not always pure, but often come contaminated with a host of toxic impurities. Impurities and other PEG 100 Stearate risks According to a report in the International Journal of Toxicology by the cosmetic industry’s own Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) committee, impurities found in various PEG compounds include ethylene oxide; 1,4-dioxane; polycyclic aromatic compounds; and heavy metals such as lead, iron, cobalt, nickel, cadmium, and arsenic. Many of these impurities are linked to cancer. PEG compounds often contain small amounts of ethylene oxide. Ethylene oxide (found in PEG-4, PEG-7, PEG4-dilaurate, and PEG 100) is highly toxic — even in small doses — and was used in World War I nerve gas. Exposure to ethylene glycol during its production, processing and clinical use has been linked to increased incidents of leukemia as well as several types of cancer. Finally, there is 1,4-dioxane (found in PEG-6, PEG-8, PEG-32, PEG-75, PEG-150, PEG-14M, and PEG-20M), which, on top of being a known carcinogen, may also combine with atmospheric oxygen to form explosive peroxides — not exactly something you want going on your skin. Even though responsible manufacturers do make efforts to remove these impurities (1,4-dioxane that can be removed from cosmetics through vacuum stripping during processing without an unreasonable increase in raw material cost), the cosmetic and personal care product industry has shown little interest in doing so. Surprisingly, PEG compounds are also used by natural cosmetics companies. If you find PEG 100 Stearate in your cosmetics… Although you might find conflicting information online regarding Polyethylene Glycol, PEGs family and their chemical relatives, it is something to pay attention to when choosing cosmetic and personal care products. If you have sensitive or damaged skin it might be a good idea to avoid products containing PEGs. Using CosmEthics app you can easy add PEGs to personal alerts. In our last blog post we wrote about vegan ingredients. Natural glycols are a good alternative to PEGs, for example natural vegetable glycerin can be used as both moisturiser and emulsifier. CosmEthics vegan list can help you find products that use vegetable glycerin as wetting agent. At present, there is not enough information shown on product labels to enable you to determine whether PEG compounds are contaminated. But if you must buy a product containing PEGs just make sure that your PEGs are coming from a respected brand. Glyceryl stearate and PEG 100 stearate is a combination of two emulsifying ingredients. The stabilising effect of both means that the product remains blended and will not separate. Description Glyceryl stearate is a solid and waxy compound. It is made by reacting glycerine (a soap by-product) with stearic acid (a naturally occurring, vegetable fatty acid). PEG 100 stearate is an off-white, solid ester of polyethylene glycol (a binder and a softener) and stearic acid. The surfactant qualities of glyceryl stearate and PEG 100 stearate allow oil and water to mix. Creams and lotions are water and oil droplets held together by materials called emulsifiers, without them oil droplets would float on top of the water. When used in a moisturiser, this forms a protective barrier on the surface of skin, greatly assisting moisture retention. Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate is a very versatile non-ionic oil-in-water emulsifier that creates silky smooth, ultra-light emulsions. Most datasheets I’ve seen state the content of each Glyceryl Stearate and PEG 100 Stearate as 48–52%, which averages out to a 50/50 blend, though check the datasheet from your supplier for the particular one you have. Appearance I’ve only seen it as brittle white flakes, but some manufacturers sell it as a powder or in pellets. Usage rate 1–25%, depending on the use. SEPPIC lists 5% for a fluid lotion, 10% for lotion, 15% for a thick lotion, 20% for a fluid cream, and 25% for a thick cream. Texture Brittle, hard; weightless in emulsions. Scent Nothing noticeable Absorbency Speed Very light Approximate Melting Point 50–60°C (122–140°F) pH 5.5–7 (3 % solution); tolerates a final pH range of approximately 4–9. Charge Non-ionic Solubility Oil Why do we use it in formulations? Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate is a very effective and crazy versatile emulsifier. It can be used to create everything from sprayable milks to ultra-thick emulsified body butters, and everything in between! Unlike emulsifying waxes like Polawax, Emulsifying Wax NF, Olivem 1000, and Ritamulse SCG, Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate does not substantially thicken emulsions, even in emulsions with very large oil phases. It is also substantially more stable in very thin emulsions. For example, let’s imagine we have four different emulsions; 2 emulsified with Polawax, and 2 emulsified with Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate. One of each emulsifier has a 15% oil phase, and the other two have a 30% oil phase—the only ingredients in the oil phase are a liquid oil and the emulsifier. There are no added thickeners, like gums or fatty alcohols (cetyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol, etc.) The Polawax emulsions will have drastically different viscosities. The 15% one will be fairly thin, but still lotion-y. It would work well in a pump-top bottle, or possibly even a bottle with a treatment pump cap. The 30% one will be more like a cream; thick and rich, and much better suited to a jar or tub. The Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate emulsions will have very similar viscosities. The 15% one will be about the consistency of partly skimmed milk, while the 30% one will be more like cream. The 30% one is more viscous because the inner phase (the oil phase) is larger, but that viscosity difference is pretty small—especially when compared to differing phase sizes in an emulsion made with Polawax. Both Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate emulsions could be packaged in a spray bottle, and are far too thin for any sort of pump bottle or jar. Because Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate does not thicken emulsions, it gives us the ability to control the viscosity and oil phase size independently. For instance, you can create an emulsion with a 50% oil phase and decide if you want it to be a thinner, pumpable lotion or a thick, solid cream. You can also choose what you want to thicken it with, allowing you significantly more control over the skin feel of the finished product. With an emulsifying wax like Polawax, that product could only be solid, and the skin feel will be harder to adjust given the unavoidable presence of the thickeners in Polawax. Additionally, because Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate doesn’t add viscosity to our emulsions, it has the ability to create far lighter feeling emulsions—in that way, it’s almost ‘invisible’ in your formulations. If you want to add the fluffy creaminess and weight of cetearyl alcohol, you’ll have to add it yourself—if you used Emulsifying Wax NF instead, that already contains 65–80% cetearyl alcohol, so you can’t avoid it. Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate also works at lower rates than more common emulsifying waxes. Compared to Emulsifying Wax NF, Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate contains a higher percentage of the emulsifying ingredient. Emulsifying Wax NF contains 20–35% Polysorbate 60, while Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate contains approximately 50% PEG 100 Stearate. I’ve seen (and successfully used) Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate at 9–17% of the oil phase, compared to 20–25% for emulsifying waxes like Polawax, Emulsifying Wax NF, Olivem 1000, and Ritamulse SCG. Do you need it? I highly recommend it if you love making lotions—it gives you far more control over your emulsions than emulsifying waxes like Polawax and Ritamulse SCG. Refined or unrefined? Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate only exists as a refined product. Strengths It’s extremely versatile, allowing you to independently adjust the viscosity and oil phase size of your formulations. It easily creates stable emulsions at low usage rates and works brilliantly over a wide variety of oil phase sizes. It’s lightweight, inexpensive, and very effective. Weaknesses It isn’t considered natural; that doesn’t bother me as it is a perfectly safe ingredient, but I can’t offer a suitable naturally-accepted alternative at this time. Alternatives & Substitutions Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate is a tricky ingredient to substitute out. Generally speaking, you’ll need another complete emulsifying wax (something like Emulsifying Wax NF or Olivem 1000), but those complete emulsifying waxes contribute significantly more thickening to finished products, meaning formulations designed to work with Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate will likely be significantly more viscous if you use a thickening emulsifying wax in its place. Depending on the formulation you may be able to adequately compensate by removing any additional fatty thickeners, but this will take some experimenting to get right. If the formulation is for an ultra-light body milk or a very thick emulsified body butter type project, it will be difficult to substitute the emulsifier. You will likely be in re-formulation territory, or you will need to accept a more viscous and/or waxier/heavier end product. How to Work with It Include Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate in your heated oil phase. Storage & Shelf Life Stored somewhere cool, dark, and dry, Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate should last at least two years. Tips, Tricks, and Quirks Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate is different from Glyceryl Stearate SE, though both are emulsifiers. The Body Shop uses Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG 100 Stearate to emulsify their signature body butters! Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Stearates (PEG-2 Stearate, PEG-6 Stearate, PEG-8 Stearate, PEG-12 Stearate, PEG-20 Stearate, PEG-32 Stearate, PEG-40 Stearate, PEG-50 Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, PEG-150 Stearate) are esters of polyethylene glycol and stearic acid. The PEG Stearates are soft to waxy solids that are white to tan in color. In cosmetics and personal care products, PEG Stearates are used in skin creams, conditioners, shampoos, body cleansers and soapless detergents.

However, it is also seen as an emollient, because of secondary properties. * A surfactant and cleansing agent * Please read TIA’s article on What Is PEG 100 Stearate : PEGs Functions of PEG 100 Stearate : PEG 100 Stearate is used in cosmetics and beauty products primarily as a surfactant and cleansing agent, because PEG Stearates' ability to clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away, according to CosmeticsInfo.org. However, it is also seen as an emollient, because of secondary properties. Unlike typical PEGs, (whose identifying number corresponds to their molecular weight) the numerical value of each PEG Stearate corresponds to the average number of ethylene oxide monomers in the polyethylene chain (from 2 - 150). Despite the many fears regarding PEGs, they are seen as an ingredient in a large number of products because of their diverse properties. In a study published in the Toxicology journal in 2005, entitled "Safety assessment on polyethylene glycols (PEGs) and their derivatives as used in cosmetic products," it was concluded that: "Taking into consideration all available information from related compounds, as well as the mode and mechanism of action, no safety concern with regard to these endpoints could be identified. Based on the available data it is therefore concluded that PEGs of a wide molecular weight range (200 to over 10,000), their ethers (laureths. ceteths, ceteareths, steareths, and oleths), and fatty acid esters (laurates, dilaurates, stearates, distearates) are safe for use in cosmetics." PEG 100 Stearate is not considered to be an irritant or sensitizer (it gave only minimal irritation in studies up to 100%), and are CIR and FDA approved for use, but not on broken skin (Source). Safety Measures/Side Effects of PEG 100 Stearate: However. The Cosmetics Database found PEG 40 Stearate to be a moderate to high hazard ingredient depending on usage. The EWG issues warnings regarding: cancer, developmental and reproductive toxicity, contamination concerns, irritation, and organ system toxicity. According to a study published in the International Journal of Toxicology, PEGs (including PEG 40 Stearate) can contain harmful impurities, including: Ethylene Oxide, known to increase the incidences of uterine and breast cancers and of leukemia and brain cancer, according to experimental results reported by the National Toxicology Program; 1,4-dioxane, a known carcinogen; PAHs, known to increase the risk of breast cancer; lead; iron; and arsenic (Source). Products and formulas containing PEG 40 Stearate should not be used on broken or irritated skin. Although PEGs are considered safe for use topically on healthy skin, studies showed that patients suffering from severe burns were treated with PEG-based antimicrobial cream; this treatment resulted in kidney toxicity. "The PEG content of the antimicrobial cream was determined to be the causative agent. However, no evidence of systemic toxicity occurred in studies with intact skin. Because of the observation of kidney effects in burn patients, the CIR Expert Panel qualified their conclusion on the safety of the PEG ingredients to state that cosmetic formulations containing these ingredients should not be used on damaged skin" SYNONYMS of PEG 100 Stearate Polyoxyl (40) stearate, polyoxyethylene (40) monostearate; INS No. 431 DEFINITION Consists of a mixture of the mono- and diesters of edible commercial stearic acid and mixed polyoxyethylene diols (having an average polymer length of about 40 oxyethylene units) together with free polyol.

Polyoxyethylene (100) stearate has been used in a study to assess the phase behaviors of special hot microemulsion to produce drug-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers. [3] It has also been used in a study to investigate its effects on multidrug resistance (MDR). Polyoxyethylene 100 monostearate, also known as ethylene glycol monostearate or myrj 52, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty acid esters. These are carboxylic ester derivatives of a fatty acid. Polyoxyethylene 40 monostearate is considered to be a practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral molecule. Polyoxyethylene 40 monostearate has been primarily detected in urine. Within the cell, polyoxyethylene 40 monostearate is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP) and cytoplasm. A sample work-up method for gas chromatographic profiling of polyethylene glycol related cmpd in pharmaceutical matrixes is described. After a short sample clean-up, carbon-oxygen linkages were partially cleaved with 0.07/M BBr3 in CH2Cl2 at room temp. The reaction was stopped after 1 min by addn of 0.01M hydrochloric acid. The products were trimethylsilylated and injected onto a WCOT 50 m X 0.25 mm CP-SIL 5 CB fused silica column. Eleven model cmpd, representing 4 common types of polyethylene glycol deriv, were evaluated by this method. Characteristic profiles can be obtained from polyethylene glycol deriv carrying different functional groups. Minimum detectable amt are in the range of 200 ug. Polyoxyl 100 Stearate is used in cosmetics and beauty products primarily as a surfactant and emulsifier. It occurs naturally as a white, waxy or flaky substance, according to The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. CosmeticsInfo.org notes that Polyoxyl 40 Stearate, as part of the PEG Stearate group, are formed from a naturally fatty acid known as Stearic Acid. The PEG Sterates are used in cosmetics and skin care formulas because they can "clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 100 Stearate ; /ˌpɒliˈɛθəlˌiːn ˈɡlaɪˌkɒl, -ˌkɔːl/) is a polyether compound with many applications, from industrial manufacturing to medicine. PEG 100 Stearate is also known as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or polyoxyethylene (POE), depending on its molecular weight. The structure of PEG 100 Stearate is commonly expressed as H−(O−CH2−CH2)n−OH.[3] Uses of PEG 100 Stearate Medical uses of PEG 100 Stearate PEG 100 Stearate is the basis of a number of laxatives.[4] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 100 Stearate is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[5] The possibility that PEG 100 Stearate could be used to fuse axons is being explored by researchers studying peripheral nerve and spinal cord injury.[4] Chemical uses of PEG 100 Stearate The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG 100 Stearate in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG 100 Stearate is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[6] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[7] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[8] Since PEG 100 Stearate is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres). It also is unlikely to have specific interactions with biological chemicals. These properties make PEG 100 Stearate one of the most useful molecules for applying osmotic pressure in biochemistry and biomembranes experiments, in particular when using the osmotic stress technique. Polyethylene glycol is also commonly used as a polar stationary phase for gas chromatography, as well as a heat transfer fluid in electronic testers. PEG 100 Stearate has also been used to preserve objects that have been salvaged from underwater, as was the case with the warship Vasa in Stockholm,[9] and similar cases. It replaces water in wooden objects, making the wood dimensionally stable and preventing warping or shrinking of the wood when it dries.[4] In addition, PEG 100 Stearate is used when working with green wood as a stabilizer, and to prevent shrinkage.[10] PEG 100 Stearate has been used to preserve the painted colors on Terracotta Warriors unearthed at a UNESCO World Heritage site in China.[11] These painted artifacts were created during the Qin Shi Huang (first emperor of China) era. Within 15 seconds of the terra-cotta pieces being unearthed during excavations, the lacquer beneath the paint begins to curl after being exposed to the dry Xi'an air. The paint would subsequently flake off in about four minutes. The German Bavarian State Conservation Office developed a PEG 100 Stearate preservative that when immediately applied to unearthed artifacts has aided in preserving the colors painted on the pieces of clay soldiers.[12] PEG 100 Stearate is often used (as an internal calibration compound) in mass spectrometry experiments, with its characteristic fragmentation pattern allowing accurate and reproducible tuning. PEG 100 Stearate derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 100 Stearate has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers

Physical and chemical properties associated with methyl glucose polyether and ester trade name materials are included in Tables 3, 4, and 5.6 Studies on most of these trade name materials are included in the toxicology section of this article. Additionally, the chemical and physical properties of isostearic acid (esters with methyl α-d-glucoside [registered with the European Chemicals Industry, ECHA], defined as 80% methyl glucoside isostearate esters [mainly di-], 16% isostearic acid, and 4% methyl glucoside)7 are included in Table 6. Data on this mixture are also included in the toxicology section. Method of Manufacture Methyl glucoside (methyl α-d-glucopyranoside) forms the backbone of the methyl glucose polyethers and esters reviewed in this safety assessment. It is cyclic or "internal" full acetal that is formed from 1 mole of methanol and 1 mole of glucose. It has been characterized as an unusually stable glucoside that exists in discrete α or β forms.16 The pathways for methyl glucoside ester and polyether methyl glucoside synthesis starting from methyl glucoside are diagrammed in Figure 1.Manufacture of methyl glucoside esters, such as methyl glucose caprylate/caprate, methyl glucose dioleate, methyl glucose isostearate, methyl glucose laurate, methyl glucose sesquicaprylate/sesquicaprate, methyl glucose sesquicocoate, methyl glucose sesquiisostearate, methyl glucose sesquilaurate, methyl glucose sesquioleate, and methyl glucose sesquistearate, is typically achieved via transesterification of an appropriate fatty acid methyl ester (eg, methyl laurate to get methyl glucose laurate) with methyl glucoside (releasing methanol as a by-product).8-13 However, esterifications via a variety of other classical techniques, such as reacting the free fatty acids with methyl glucoside and a catalyst, are also known methods of manufacture for these ingredients.14,15 Under most conditions, the primary alcohol group at C6 of the methyl glucoside core is the most reactive to esterification and is the first site to be substituted. The polyether methyl glucosides, such as PPG-10 methyl glucose ether, PPG-20 methyl glucose ether, PPG-25 methyl glucose ether, methyl gluceth-10, and methyl gluceth-20, are typically manufactured by reaction of methyl glucoside with the required amount of the appropriate epoxide (eg, propylene oxide is used to produce PPG-10 methyl glucose; ethylene oxide is utilized to produce methyl gluceth-10).10 For those ingredients with both ester and polyether groups, such as Peg 120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate, PEG-20 methyl glucose distearate, PEG-80 methyl glucose laurate, PEG-20 methyl glucose sesquicaprylate/sesquicaprate, PEG-20 methyl glucose sesquilaurate, PEG-20 methyl glucose sesquistearate, PEG-120 methyl glucose triisostearate, PEG-120 methyl glucose trioleate, PPG-20 methyl glucose ether acetate, and PPG-20 methyl glucose ether distearate, these same methods are utilized, sequentially. An example would be PEG-80 methyl glucose laurate, which is produced in 2 steps: (1) esterification of methyl glucoside with methyl laurate, followed by (2) polyetherification with ethylene oxide. Use Cosmetic The methyl glucose polyethers reportedly function as skin and hair-conditioning agents, whereas, the methyl glucose esters reportedly function only as skin-conditioning agents in cosmetic products.1 Ingredients classified as both methyl glucose polyethers and esters based on their chemical structures function as skin-conditioning agents, surfactants, and viscosity-increasing agents in cosmetic products. According to the information supplied to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) by industry as part of the Voluntary Cosmetic Registration Program (VCRP) in 2013 (summarized in Table 7), methyl glucose dioleate, methyl glucose sesquioleate, methyl glucose sesquistearate, PPG-10 methyl glucose ether, PPG-20 methyl glucose ether, PPG-20 methyl glucose ether distearate, methyl gluceth-10, methyl gluceth-20, Peg 120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate, PEG-20 methyl glucose distearate, PEG-20 methyl glucose sesquistearate, and PEG-120 methyl glucose trioleate are being used in cosmetic products.17 A survey of ingredient use concentrations that was conducted by the Personal Care Products Council (Council) in 2013 (Table 7) indicates that the polyethers and esters are being used at concentrations up to 15% and 4%, respectively.18,19 The maximum use concentration was 15% for methyl gluceth-10 and methyl gluceth-20 used in rinse-off skin-cleansing products. For leave-on products, the 15% maximum use concentration was for methyl gluceth-10 used in face and neck creams, lotions, and powders (not sprays). The Council survey results also provided a use concentration for the newly reported VCRP use(s) of methyl glucose sesquistearate (1% maximum use concentration), but not PEG-20 methyl glucose sesquistearate, in lipsticks. Additionally, a maximum use concentration of 0.05% for PEG-20 methyl glucose distearate in lipsticks was reported in this survey. Uses of methyl glucose sesquistearate and PEG-20 methyl glucose sesquistearate, but not PEG-20 methyl glucose distearate, in lipsticks were also reported in FDA's VCRP. Cosmetic products containing methyl glucose polyethers and esters may be applied to the skin and hair, or, incidentally, may come in contact with the eyes and mucous membranes. Products containing these ingredients may be applied as frequently as several times per day and may come in contact with the skin or hair for variable periods following application. Daily or occasional use may extend over many years.

HOW PEG 150 DISTEARATE IS CLASSIFIED:
*Texture Enhancer



PROPERTIES OF PEG 150 DISTEARATE:
PEG-150 distearate typically is supplied as solid, white to off-white waxy flakes that melt at approximately 52–57°C.
Potential impurities in the raw material can include: unreacted stearic acid or methyl stearate; monofunctional PEG 150 Distearate; unreacted PEG 150 Distearate; (trans)esterification catalyst residues; trace organic peroxides that result from oxidation of PEG; and 1,4-dioxane, a by-product of ethylene oxide poly-merization to produce PEG-150 diol.
PEG 150 Distearate distearate is water-soluble; however, it must be heated above its melting point to achieve effective dissolution and its solubility is tremendously enhanced in the presence of other surfactants.



PEG DIESTERS TYPICALLY ARE PRODUCED BY ONE OF THREE ROUTES:
1) ethoxylation of fatty acids, 2) direct esterification of PEG with fatty acids to produce water as a by-product, or 3) transesterification of fatty acid esters with PEG to produce alcohols as byproducts.
In the case of PEG-150 distearate, only Routes 2 and 3 are desirable since Route 1 leads to mixtures of mono- and difunctional PEG esters and unmodified PEG
Critical commodity feedstocks for the production of PEG-150 distearate are ethylene oxide, derived from ethylene, which is used to produce the PEG-150; and stearic acid for direct esterification, or methyl stearate for transesterification.



TECHNOLOGY AND APPLICATIONS OF PEG 150 DISTEARATE:
PEG 150 Distearate is mainly used as a micellar thickening agent for surfactant-based cleansers, especially shampoos, shower gels and face washes.
Although the exact mechanism of rheology modification by PEG 150 Distearate in surfactant solutions is not fully elucidated, it generally is accepted that PEG 150 Distearate would function similarly to other low MW telechelic hydrophobically modified polymers.

Such molecules incorporate into surfactant micelles, where they can:
increase the hydrodynamic size and viscous drag of micelles in solution by extension of hydrated PEG chains into the aqueous phase;
increase the micellar radius of curvature to promote wormlike micelle formation—due to incorporation of the bulky C18 stearate hydrophobes into the micellar core and shielding of electrostatic head group repulsions between ionic surfactants by the nonionic PEG chains; and physically crosslink micelles via intermicellar bridging.

Individually or in combination, each of these mechanisms typically leads to increases in the bulk viscosity of surfactant solutions.
Besides an increase in bulk viscosity, PEG 150 Distearate may impart other rheological effects; for example, intermicellar physical crosslinking can dramatically increase the storage modulus, i.e. elasticity, of a micellar surfactant solution.
An important specification for PEG 150 Distearate is the saponification value, a measure of the degree of esterification of the PEG ester, which is reported in mg KOH/g PEG ester.

For PEG 150 Distearate, a higher saponification value generally indicates a higher level of disubstituted PEG chains in the material, which corresponds to higher thickening efficiency.
PEG 150 Distearate has an HLB value of about 18, thus the ingredient can also be used as a nonionic emulsifier for o/w systems.
In addition, the use of PEG 150 Distearate in color cosmetics, hair conditioner and shaving preparations has been reported in the literature.

Finally, to overcome the need for the hot processing of formulas containing PEG 150 Distearate to achieve effective dissolution, as previously described, raw material suppliers also provide the ingredient in concentrated aqueous blends with common anionic, amphoteric, and/or nonionic surfactants such as sodium trideceth sulfate, cocamidopropyl betaine and PEG-80 sorbitan laurate.
Such blends simplify formulating by premixing ingredients that are commonly employed together, e.g., the amphoteric and nonionic surfactants used in baby shampoos, and enabling ambient temperature processing.



WHY IS PEG 150 DISTEARATE USED IN COSMETICS AND PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS?
PEG Distearate ingredients clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away.
They also help to form emulsions by reducing the surface tension of the substances to be emulsified and help other ingredients to dissolve in a solvent in which they would not normally dissolve.

It helps in the purification and crystal growth of proteins and nucleic acids. PEG and dextran together result in aqueous polymer two phase system, which is required for the purification of biological materials. PEG also interacts with cell membrane, thereby allowing cell fusion.[4][5] Application of PEG 1500 Polyethylene Glycol 1500 (PEG 1500) has been used to mediate cell fusion.[1][2][3] Physical form of PEG 1500 Solution, filtered through 0.2 μm pore size membrane, 50% PEG 1500 (w/v) in 75 mM Hepes (pH 8.0), bottled under nitrogen, ready to use Other Notes of PEG 1500 For life science research only.

Polyethylene glycol PEG 1500 Polyethylene glycol (PEG; /ˌpɒliˈɛθəlˌiːn ˈɡlaɪˌkɒl, -ˌkɔːl/) is a polyether compound derived from petroleum with many applications, from industrial manufacturing to medicine. PEG 1500 is also known as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or polyoxyethylene (POE), depending on its molecular weight. The structure of PEG 1500 is commonly expressed as H−(O−CH2−CH2)n−OH.[3] Uses of PEG 1500 Medical uses Main articles: Macrogol and PEGylation PEG is the basis of a number of laxatives.[4] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 1500 is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[5] The possibility that PEG could be used to fuse axons is being explored by researchers studying peripheral nerve and spinal cord injury.[4] An example of PEG hydrogels (see "Biological uses" section) in a therapeutic has been theorized by Ma et al. They propose using the hydrogel to address periodontitis (gum disease) by encapsulating stem cells in the gel that promote healing in the gums.[6] The gel and encapsulated stem cells was to be injected to the site of disease and crosslinked to create the microenvironment required for the stem cells to function. A PEGylated lipid is used as an excipient in both the Moderna and Pfizer–BioNTech vaccines for SARS-CoV-2. Both RNA vaccines consist of Messenger RNA, or mRNA, encased in a bubble of oily molecules called lipids. Proprietary lipid technology is used for each. In both vaccines, the bubbles are coated with a stabilizing molecule of polyethylene glycol.[medical citation needed] As of December 2020 there is some concern that PEG could trigger allergic reaction,[7] and in fact allergic reactions are the driver for both the UK and Canadian regulators to issue an advisory, noting that: two individuals "individuals in the U.K... were treated and have recovered" from anaphylactic shock.[8][9] As of 18 December, the US CDC stated that in their jurisdiction six cases of "severe allergic reaction" had been recorded from more than 250,000 vaccinations, and of those six only one person had a "history of vaccination reactions".[10] Chemical uses The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[11] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[12] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[13] Since PEG is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres). It also is unlikely to have specific interactions with biological chemicals. These properties make PEG one of the most useful molecules for applying osmotic pressure in biochemistry and biomembranes experiments, in particular when using the osmotic stress technique. Polyethylene glycol is also commonly used as a polar stationary phase for gas chromatography, as well as a heat transfer fluid in electronic testers. PEG has also been used to preserve objects that have been salvaged from underwater, as was the case with the warship Vasa in Stockholm,[14] and similar cases. It replaces water in wooden objects, making the wood dimensionally stable and preventing warping or shrinking of the wood when it dries.[4] In addition, PEG is used when working with green wood as a stabilizer, and to prevent shrinkage.[15] PEG has been used to preserve the painted colors on Terracotta Warriors unearthed at a UNESCO World Heritage site in China.[16] These painted artifacts were created during the Qin Shi Huang (first emperor of China) era. Within 15 seconds of the terra-cotta pieces being unearthed during excavations, the lacquer beneath the paint begins to curl after being exposed to the dry Xi'an air. The paint would subsequently flake off in about four minutes. The German Bavarian State Conservation Office developed a PEG preservative that when immediately applied to unearthed artifacts has aided in preserving the colors painted on the pieces of clay soldiers.[17] PEG is often used (as an internal calibration compound) in mass spectrometry experiments, with its characteristic fragmentation pattern allowing accurate and reproducible tuning. PEG 1500 derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 1500 has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers used to create some polymersomes.[18] PEG 1500 has also been used as a propellent on the UGM-133M Trident II Missile, in service with the United States Air Force.[19] Biological uses of PEG 1500 PEG can be modified and crosslinked into a hydrogel and used to mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) environment for cell encapsulation and studies.[20][21] An example study was done using PEG-Diacrylate hydrogels to recreate vascular environments with the encapsulation of endothelial cells and macrophages. This model furthered vascular disease modeling and isolated macrophage phenotype's effect on blood vessels.[22] PEG is commonly used as a crowding agent in in vitro assays to mimic highly crowded cellular conditions.[11] PEG is commonly used as a precipitant for plasmid DNA isolation and protein crystallization. X-ray diffraction of protein crystals can reveal the atomic structure of the proteins. PEG is used to fuse two different types of cells, most often B-cells and myelomas in order to create hybridomas. César Milstein and Georges J. F. Köhler originated this technique, which they used for antibody production, winning a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1984.[4] Polymer segments derived from PEG polyols impart flexibility to polyurethanes for applications such as elastomeric fibers (spandex) and foam cushions. In microbiology, PEG precipitation is used to concentrate viruses. PEG is also used to induce complete fusion (mixing of both inner and outer leaflets) in liposomes reconstituted in vitro. Gene therapy vectors (such as viruses) can be PEG-coated to shield them from inactivation by the immune system and to de-target them from organs where they may build up and have a toxic effect.[23] The size of the PEG polymer has been shown to be important, with larger polymers achieving the best immune protection. PEG is a component of stable nucleic acid lipid particles (SNALPs) used to package siRNA for use in vivo.[24][25] In blood banking, PEG is used as a potentiator to enhance detection of antigens and antibodies.[4][26] When working with phenol in a laboratory situation, PEG 300 can be used on phenol skin burns to deactivate any residual phenol (some references are required). In biophysics, polyethylene glycols are the molecules of choice for the functioning ion channels diameter studies, because in aqueous solutions they have a spherical shape and can block ion channel conductance.[27][28] Commercial uses PEG is the basis of many skin creams (as cetomacrogol) and personal lubricants (frequently combined with glycerin). PEG is used in a number of toothpastes[4] as a dispersant. In this application, it binds water and helps keep xanthan gum uniformly distributed throughout the toothpaste. PEG is also under investigation for use in body armor, and in tattoos to monitor diabetes.[29][30] In low-molecular-weight formulations (e.g. PEG 400), it is used in Hewlett-Packard designjet printers as an ink solvent and lubricant for the print heads. PEG is also used as an anti-foaming agent in food and drinks[31] – its INS number is 1521[32] or E1521 in the EU.[33] Industrial uses A nitrate ester-plasticized polyethylene glycol (NEPE-75) is used in Trident II submarine-launched ballistic missile solid rocket fuel.[34] Dimethyl ethers of PEG are the key ingredient of Selexol, a solvent used by coal-burning, integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants to remove carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from the gas waste stream. PEG has been used as the gate insulator in an electric double-layer transistor to induce superconductivity in an insulator.[35] PEG is also used as a polymer host for solid polymer electrolytes. Although not yet in commercial production, many groups around the globe are engaged in research on solid polymer electrolytes involving PEG, with the aim of improving their properties, and in permitting their use in batteries, electro-chromic display systems, and other products in the future. PEG is injected into industrial processes to reduce foaming in separation equipment. PEG is used as a binder in the preparation of technical ceramics.[36] Recreational uses PEG is used to extend the size and durability of very large soap bubbles. PEG is the main ingredient in many personal lubricants. (Not to be confused with propylene glycol.) Health effects PEG is considered biologically inert and safe by the FDA. However, a growing body of evidence shows the existence of a detectable level of anti-PEG antibodies in approximately 72% of the population, never treated with PEGylated drugs, based on plasma samples from 1990–1999.[37] The FDA has been asked to investigate the possible effects of PEG in laxatives for children. Since 1999, the FDA has received over 1,000 incident reports from parents reporting serious or life threatening side effects after their children were given one or more doses of PEG as an osmotic laxative.[38] Miralax has not been tested on children. PEG is not recommended to those under 18. Due to its ubiquity in a multitude of products and the large percentage of the population with antibodies to PEG, hypersensitive reactions to PEG are an increasing concern.[39][40] Allergy to PEG is usually discovered after a person has been diagnosed with an allergy to an increasing number of seemingly unrelated products, including processed foods, cosmetics, drugs, and other substances that contain PEG or were manufactured with PEG.[39] When PEG is chemically attached to therapeutic molecules (such as protein drugs or nanoparticles), it can sometimes be antigenic (a molecule which stimulates an immune response), stimulating an anti-PEG antibody response in some patients. This effect has only been shown for a few of the many available PEGylated therapeutics, but it has significant effects on clinical outcomes of affected patients.[41] Other than these few instances where patients have anti-PEG immune responses, it is generally considered to be a safe component of drug formulations.[medical citation needed] Available forms and nomenclature PEG, PEO, and POE refer to an oligomer or polymer of ethylene oxide. The three names are chemically synonymous, but historically PEG is preferred in the biomedical field, whereas PEO is more prevalent in the field of polymer chemistry. Because different applications require different polymer chain lengths, PEG has tended to refer to oligomers and polymers with a molecular mass below 20,000 g/mol, PEO to polymers with a molecular mass above 20,000 g/mol, and POE to a polymer of any molecular mass.[42] PEGs are prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and are commercially available over a wide range of molecular weights from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol.[43] PEG and PEO are liquids or low-melting solids, depending on their molecular weights. While PEG and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process – the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG, or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG. Lower-molecular-weight PEGs are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high-purity PEG has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray crystallography.[43] Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10–1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG. PEGs are also available with different geometries. Branched PEGs have three to ten PEG chains emanating from a central core group. Star PEGs have 10 to 100 PEG chains emanating from a central core group. Comb PEGs have multiple PEG chains normally grafted onto a polymer backbone. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEGs indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 400.) Most PEGs include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index (ĐM). Mw and Mn can be measured by mass spectrometry. PEGylation is the act of covalently coupling a PEG structure to another larger molecule, for example, a therapeutic protein, which is then referred to as a PEGylated protein. PEGylated interferon alfa-2a or −2b are commonly used injectable treatments for hepatitis C infection. PEG is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, and is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. It is coupled to hydrophobic molecules to produce non-ionic surfactants.[44] PEGs potentially contain toxic impurities, such as ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane.[45] Ethylene Glycol and its ethers are nephrotoxic if applied to damaged skin.[46] Polyethylene oxide (PEO, Mw 4 kDa) nanometric crystallites (4 nm) PEG and related polymers (PEG phospholipid constructs) are often sonicated when used in biomedical applications. However, as reported by Murali et al., PEG is very sensitive to sonolytic degradation and PEG degradation products can be toxic to mammalian cells. It is, thus, imperative to assess potential PEG degradation to ensure that the final material does not contain undocumented contaminants that can introduce artifacts into experimental results.[47] PEGs and methoxypolyethylene glycols are manufactured by Dow Chemical under the trade name Carbowax for industrial use, and Carbowax Sentry for food and pharmaceutical use. They vary in consistency from liquid to solid, depending on the molecular weight, as indicated by a number following the name. They are used commercially in numerous applications, including foods, in cosmetics, in pharmaceutics, in biomedicine, as dispersing agents, as solvents, in ointments, in suppository bases, as tablet excipients, and as laxatives. Some specific groups are lauromacrogols, nonoxynols, octoxynols, and poloxamers. Macrogol, MiraLax, GoLytely, Colace used as a laxative, is a form of polyethylene glycol. The name may be followed by a number which represents the average molecular weight (e.g. macrogol 3350, macrogol 4000 or macrogol 6000). Production Polyethylene glycol 400, pharmaceutical quality Polyethylene glycol 4000, pharmaceutical quality The production of polyethylene glycol was first reported in 1859. Both A. V. Lourenço and Charles Adolphe Wurtz independently isolated products that were polyethylene glycols.[48] Polyethylene glycol is produced by the interaction of ethylene oxide with water, ethylene glycol, or ethylene glycol oligomers.[49] The reaction is catalyzed by acidic or basic catalysts. Ethylene glycol and its oligomers are preferable as a starting material instead of water, because they allow the creation of polymers with a low polydispersity (narrow molecular weight distribution). Polymer chain length depends on the ratio of reactants. HOCH2CH2OH + n(CH2CH2O) → HO(CH2CH2O)n+1H Depending on the catalyst type, the mechanism of polymerization can be cationic or anionic. The anionic mechanism is preferable because it allows one to obtain PEG with a low polydispersity. Polymerization of ethylene oxide is an exothermic process. Overheating or contaminating ethylene oxide with catalysts such as alkalis or metal oxides can lead to runaway polymerization, which can end in an explosion after a few hours. Polyethylene oxide, or high-molecular weight polyethylene glycol, is synthesized by suspension polymerization. It is necessary to hold the growing polymer chain in solution in the course of the polycondensation process. The reaction is catalyzed by magnesium-, aluminium-, or calcium-organoelement compounds. To prevent coagulation of polymer chains from solution, chelating additives such as dimethylglyoxime are used. Alkaline catalysts such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH), or sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) are used to prepare low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol.

While PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process – the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300), or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300). Lower-molecular-weight PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high purity PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray diffraction.[33] Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10–1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300). PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s are also available with different geometries. Branched PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s have three to ten PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) chains emanating from a central core group. Star PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s have 10 to 100 PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) chains emanating from a central core group. Comb PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s have multiple PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) chains normally grafted onto a polymer backbone. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) 400.) Most PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index (Mw/Mn). Mw and Mn can be measured by mass spectrometry. PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)ylation is the act of covalently coupling a PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) structure to another larger molecule, for example, a therapeutic protein, which is then referred to as a PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)ylated protein. PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)ylated interferon alfa-2a or −2b are commonly used injectable treatments for hepatitis C infection. PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, and is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. It is coupled to hydrophobic molecules to produce non-ionic surfactants.[34] PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s potentially contain toxic impurities, such as ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane.[35] Ethylene Glycol and its ethers are nephrotoxic if applied to damaged skin.[36] Polyethylene oxide (PEO, Mw 4 kDa) nanometric crystallites (4 nm) Polyethylene glycol (PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)) and related polymers (PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) phospholipid constructs) are often sonicated when used in biomedical applications. However, as reported by Murali et al., PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) is very sensitive to sonolytic degradation and PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) degradation products can be toxic to mammalian cells. It is, thus, imperative to assess potential PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) degradation to ensure that the final material does not contain undocumented contaminants that can introduce artifacts into experimental results.[37] PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300)s and methoxypolyethylene glycols are manufactured by Dow Chemical under the tradename Carbowax for industrial use, and Carbowax Sentry for food and pharmaceutical use. They vary in consistency from liquid to solid, depending on the molecular weight, as indicated by a number following the name. They are used commercially in numerous applications, including as surfactants, in foods, in cosmetics, in pharmaceutics, in biomedicine, as dispersing agents, as solvents, in ointments, in suppository bases, as tablet excipients, and as laxatives. Some specific groups are lauromacrogols, nonoxynols, octoxynols, and poloxamers. Macrogol, used as a laxative, is a form of polyethylene glycol. The name may be followed by a number which represents the average molecular weight. Production of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) Polyethylene glycol 400, pharmaceutical quality Polyethylene glycol 4000, pharmaceutical quality The production of polyethylene glycol was first reported in 1859. Both A. V. Lourenço and Charles Adolphe Wurtz independently isolated products that were polyethylene glycols.[38] Polyethylene glycol is produced by the interaction of ethylene oxide with water, ethylene glycol, or ethylene glycol oligomers.[39] The reaction is catalyzed by acidic or basic catalysts. Ethylene glycol and its oligomers are preferable as a starting material instead of water, because they allow the creation of polymers with a low polydispersity (narrow molecular weight distribution). Polymer chain length depends on the ratio of reactants. HOCH2CH2OH + n(CH2CH2O) → HO(CH2CH2O)n+1H Depending on the catalyst type, the mechanism of polymerization can be cationic or anionic. The anionic mechanism is preferable because it allows one to obtain PEG 300 (Polyethylene Glycol 300, Polietilen Glikol 300) with a low polydispersity. Polymerization of ethylene oxide is an exothermic process. Overheating or contaminating ethylene oxide with catalysts such as alkalis or metal oxides can lead to runaway polymerization, which can end in an explosion after a few hours. Polyethylene oxide, or high-molecular weight polyethylene glycol, is synthesized by suspension polymerization. It is necessary to hold the growing polymer chain in solution in the course of the polycondensation process. The reaction is catalyzed by magnesium-, aluminium-, or calcium-organoelement compounds. To prevent coagulation of polymer chains from solution, chelating additives such as dimethylglyoxime are used. Alkaline catalysts such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH), or sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) are used to prepare low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol.

PEG 3350
PEG 3350 Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350; /ˌpɒliˈɛθəlˌiːn ˈɡlaɪˌkɒl, -ˌkɔːl/) is a polyether compound with many applications, from industrial manufacturing to medicine. PEG 3350 is also known as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or polyoxyethylene (POE), depending on its molecular weight. The structure of PEG 3350 is commonly expressed as H−(O−CH2−CH2)n−OH. Uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350 Medical uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350) Main article: Macrogol PEG 3350 is the basis of a number of laxatives.[4] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 3350 is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[5] The possibility that PEG 3350 could be used to fuse axons is being explored by researchers studying peripheral nerve and spinal cord injury.[4] Chemical uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350) The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG 3350 in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG 3350 is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[6] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[7] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[8] Since PEG 3350 is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres). It also is unlikely to have specific interactions with biological chemicals. These properties make PEG 3350 one of the most useful molecules for applying osmotic pressure in biochemistry and biomembranes experiments, in particular when using the osmotic stress technique. Polyethylene glycol is also commonly used as a polar stationary phase for gas chromatography, as well as a heat transfer fluid in electronic testers. PEG 3350 has also been used to preserve objects that have been salvaged from underwater, as was the case with the warship Vasa in Stockholm,[9] and similar cases. It replaces water in wooden objects, making the wood dimensionally stable and preventing warping or shrinking of the wood when it dries.[4] In addition, PEG 3350 is used when working with green wood as a stabilizer, and to prevent shrinkage.[10] PEG 3350 has been used to preserve the painted colors on Terracotta Warriors unearthed at a UNESCO World Heritage site in China.[11] These painted artifacts were created during the Qin Shi Huang (first emperor of China) era. Within 15 seconds of the terra-cotta pieces being unearthed during excavations, the lacquer beneath the paint begins to curl after being exposed to the dry Xi'an air. The paint would subsequently flake off in about four minutes. The German Bavarian State Conservation Office developed a PEG 3350 preservative that when immediately applied to unearthed artifacts has aided in preserving the colors painted on the pieces of clay soldiers.[12] PEG 3350 is often used (as an internal calibration compound) in mass spectrometry experiments, with its characteristic fragmentation pattern allowing accurate and reproducible tuning. PEG 3350 derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 3350 has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers used to create some polymersomes.[13] PEG 3350 has also been used as a propellent on the UGM-133M Trident II Missile, in service with the United States Air Force.[14] Biological uses PEG 3350 is commonly used as a crowding agent in in vitro assays to mimic highly crowded cellular conditions.[6] PEG 3350 is commonly used as a precipitant for plasmid DNA isolation and protein crystallization. X-ray diffraction of protein crystals can reveal the atomic structure of the proteins. PEG 3350 is used to fuse two different types of cells, most often B-cells and myelomas in order to create hybridomas. Polymer segments derived from PEG 3350 polyols impart flexibility to polyurethanes for applications such as elastomeric fibers (spandex) and foam cushions. In microbiology, PEG 3350 precipitation is used to concentrate viruses. PEG 3350 is also used to induce complete fusion (mixing of both inner and outer leaflets) in liposomes reconstituted in vitro. Gene therapy vectors (such as viruses) can be PEG 3350-coated to shield them from inactivation by the immune system and to de-target them from organs where they may build up and have a toxic effect.[15] The size of the PEG 3350 polymer has been shown to be important, with larger polymers achieving the best immune protection. PEG 3350 is a component of stable nucleic acid lipid particles (SNALPs) used to package siRNA for use in vivo. In blood banking, PEG 3350 is used as a potentiator to enhance detection of antigens and antibodies. When working with phenol in a laboratory situation, PEG 3350 300 can be used on phenol skin burns to deactivate any residual phenol (some references are required). In biophysics, polyethylene glycols are the molecules of choice for the functioning ion channels diameter studies, because in aqueous solutions they have a spherical shape and can block ion channel conductance. Commercial uses PEG 3350 is the basis of many skin creams (as cetomacrogol) and personal lubricants (frequently combined with glycerin). PEG 3350 is used in a number of toothpastes[4] as a dispersant. In this application, it binds water and helps keep xanthan gum uniformly distributed throughout the toothpaste. PEG 3350 is also under investigation for use in body armor, and in tattoos to monitor diabetes. In low-molecular-weight formulations (e.g. PEG 3350 400), it is used in Hewlett-Packard designjet printers as an ink solvent and lubricant for the print heads. PEG 3350 is also used as an anti-foaming agent in food and drinks[23] – its INS number is 1521 or E1521 in the EU. Industrial uses A nitrate ester-plasticized polyethylene glycol (NEPE-75) is used in Trident II submarine-launched ballistic missile solid rocket fuel.[26] Dimethyl ethers of PEG 3350 are the key ingredient of Selexol, a solvent used by coal-burning, integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants to remove carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from the gas waste stream. PEG 3350 has been used as the gate insulator in an electric double-layer transistor to induce superconductivity in an insulator.[27] PEG 3350 is also used as a polymer host for solid polymer electrolytes. Although not yet in commercial production, many groups around the globe are engaged in research on solid polymer electrolytes involving PEG 3350, with the aim of improving their properties, and in permitting their use in batteries, electro-chromic display systems, and other products in the future. PEG 3350 is injected into industrial processes to reduce foaming in separation equipment. PEG 3350 is used as a binder in the preparation of technical ceramics.[28] Recreational uses PEG 3350 is used to extend the size and durability of very large soap bubbles. PEG 3350 is the main ingredient in many personal lubricants. Health effects PEG 3350 is considered biologically inert and safe by the FDA. However, a growing body of evidence shows the existence of anti PEG 3350 antibodies in approximately 72% of the population based on plasma samples from 1990–1999.[medical citation needed] The FDA has been asked to investigate the possible effects of PEG 3350 in laxatives for children.[29] Due to its ubiquity in a multitude of products and the large percentage of the population with antibodies to PEG 3350, hypersensitive reactions to PEG 3350 are an increasing concern.[medical citation needed] Allergy to PEG 3350 is usually discovered after a person has been diagnosed with an allergy to an increasing number of seemingly unrelated products, including processed foods, cosmetics, drugs, and other substances that contain PEG 3350 or were manufactured with PEG 3350.[30] When PEG 3350 is chemically attached to therapeutic molecules (such as protein drugs or nanoparticles), it can sometimes be antigenic, stimulating an anti-PEG 3350 antibody response in some patients. This effect has only been shown for a few of the many available PEG 3350 therapeutics, but it has significant effects on clinical outcomes of affected patients.[31] Other than these few instances where patients have anti-PEG 3350 immune responses, it is generally considered to be a safe component of drug formulations. Available forms and nomenclature PEG 3350, PEO, and POE refer to an oligomer or polymer of ethylene oxide. The three names are chemically synonymous, but historically PEG 3350 is preferred in the biomedical field, whereas PEO is more prevalent in the field of polymer chemistry. Because different applications require different polymer chain lengths, PEG 3350 has tended to refer to oligomers and polymers with a molecular mass below 20,000 g/mol, PEO to polymers with a molecular mass above 20,000 g/mol, and POE to a polymer of any molecular mass.[32] PEG 3350s are prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and are commercially available over a wide range of molecular weights from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol.[33] PEG 3350 and PEO are liquids or low-melting solids, depending on their molecular weights. While PEG 3350 and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG 3350 are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process – the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG 3350, or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG 3350. Lower-molecular-weight PEG 3350s are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high purity PEG 3350 has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray diffraction.[33] Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10–1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG 3350. PEG 3350s are also available with different geometries. Branched PEG 3350s have three to ten PEG 3350 chains emanating from a central core group. Star PEG 3350s have 10 to 100 PEG 3350 chains emanating from a central core group. Comb PEG 3350s have multiple PEG 3350 chains normally grafted onto a polymer backbone. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEG 3350s indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG 3350 with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 3350 400.) Most PEG 3350s include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index (Mw/Mn).

Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350) is a versatile polyether being utilized in various applications, in particular in medicine. Polyethylene oxide (PEO) is another name for PEG 3350. Typically, ethylene oxide macromolecules (Fig. 18.9) with molecular weights less than 20,000 g/mol are called PEG 3350, while those having values above 20,000 g/mol are named PEO. It is reported that PEG 3350 is soluble in water, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, while it is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. PEG 3350 is available in different structures such as branched, star, and comb-like macromolecules. PEG 3350ylation is an attractive process in which PEG 3350 is bonded to another molecule, which is promising in therapeutic methods. PEG 3350 can hinder the protein adsorption which is essential in drug delivery to minimize the protein corona formation [29]. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350) is a hydrophilic polymer of ethylene oxide. The non-immunogenic, biocompatible and flexible nature of PEG 3350 makes it a suitable synthetic dressing material for wound healing. The low toxic PEG 3350 macromers are well bonded with growth factor like EGF and can be delivered at the wound site [98]. The mechanical stability of PEG 3350 can be enhanced by blending PEG 3350 with chitosan and PLGA. Blending also increases thermal stability and crystallinity of the particular polymer [99]. Such PEG 3350-based dressings have been widely used to treat a diabetic wound by promoting and inducing growth of skin cells and collagen deposition. It also reduces scar formation [100]. The injectable hybrid hydrogel dressing system is developed from PEG 3350-based hyperbranched multiacrylated co-polymer and HA in combination with adipose-derived stem cells to support the viability of cells in vitro and in vivo. It prevents wound contraction and enhances angiogenesis by acting as temporary hydrogel for wound healing purpose [101]. Hydrophilic Materials Based on Polyethylene Glycol Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350) is the most relevant antifouling polymer in biomedical devices. PEG 3350 antifouling properties are thought to be related to surface hydration and steric hindrance effects (Chen et al., 2010). PEG 3350 chains linked to a material surface assume a brush-like configuration at the water/surface interface, limiting the approach to the surface by bacteria. Compression of the highly hydrated layer of PEG 3350 chains is unfavorable because it would involve a reduction in PEG 3350 chain mobility and removal of water molecules. Surface packing density and polymer chain length can be used to control PEG 3350 antifouling properties (Roosjen et al., 2004). PEG 3350-functionalized PUs were developed by PEG 3350 introduction either in the polymer backbone (Corneillie et al., 1998) or polymer side chain (Francolini et al., 2019). Auto-oxidization in the presence of oxygen, metal ions, and enzymes able to oxidize PEG 3350 hydroxyl groups, however, may limit long-term effectiveness. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350) is another important type of PCM for textile applications. The repeating unit in PEG 3350 is oxyethylene (–O–CH2–CH2–) containing hydroxyl group on either side of the chain. The melting point of PEG 3350 depends on its molecular weight and is proportional as the molecular weight increases. The phase-change temperature of PEG 3350 can be determined using DSC (Pielichowski and Flejtuch, 2002). PEG 3350 with degree of polymerization 1000 has phase-change temperature of 35°C, while PEG 3350 with degree of polymerization 20,000 has melting temperature of 63°C (Craig and Newton, 1991; Hopp et al., 2000). Jiang et al. (2016) synthesized a dual-functional magnetic microcapsules containing a PCM core and an organo-silica shell for the electromagnetic shielding and thermal regulating applications. Fig. 20.6 shows the resulting DSC curves where the areas under the peaks indicate the amount of latent heat contained using different organosilanes/PEG 3350 weight ratios. PEG 3350 is the basis of a number of laxatives.[3] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 3350 is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[4] The possibility that PEG 3350 could be used to fuse nerve cells is being explored by researchers studying spinal cord injury.[3] Chemical uses The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG 3350 in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG 3350 is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[5] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[6] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[7] Since PEG is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres).

PEG 3350 derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 3350 is a polyol and can be reacted with an isocyanate to make polyurethane. PEG 3350 has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers used to create some polymersomes.[12] Biological uses PEG 3350 is commonly used as a crowding agent in in vitro assays to mimic highly crowded cellular conditions.

PEG is used to fuse two different types of cells, most often B-cells and myelomas in order to create hybridomas. César Milstein and Georges J. F. Köhler originated this technique, which they used for antibody production, winning a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1984.[3] Polymer segments derived from PEG polyols impart flexibility to polyurethanes for applications such as elastomeric fibers (spandex) and foam cushions.

In biophysics, polyethylene glycols are the molecules of choice for the functioning ion channels diameter studies, because in aqueous solutions they have a spherical shape and can block ion channel conductance. What is Polyethyleneglycol? Polyethyleneglycol, or PEG 3350 for short, is a polyether consisting of a (-O-CH2-CH2-) backbone that is commonly used in many fields of academic research, industrial processing and commercial applications. PEG 3350s can also commonly be referred to as polyoxyethylene (POE) and polyethyleneoxide (PEO), but regardless of the name that is used, the simple structure of PEG 3350s (which consists of solely carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, see image below) affords safe compounds that are used throughout everyday life. Additionally, it is this simple structure that separates PEG 3350s from similar compounds like propylene glycol and polypropyleneglycol. The two aforementioned compounds (polyethyleneglycol vs. propylene glycol) are derivatives of propylene oxide, which, when polymerized, bestows a completely different set of physical characteristics to the compound as compared to PEG 3350. The method in which PEG 3350s are created allows for a wide variability in their physical attributes, allowing them to be utilized by many commercial markets. By controlling a PEG 3350’s size (i.e. molecular weight) and its size distribution, a wide variety of physical properties can be achieved, which sets Oxiteno’s line of PEG 3350 products, the 6000 powder series, apart from other name brands of polyethyleneglycols. Due to the vast number of product types offered 6000 powder products (click here for a full listing), many physical forms (liquids, pastes, solids, flakes, powder, etc.) and viscosities of PEG 3350s are available. It is the numerous attributes of PEG 3350s that allow for their inclusion in a vast array of applications, ranging from the pharmaceutical industry to cosmetic markets. While the structure of PEG 3350 is simple, it is this compound’s solubility in water is what makes it such a versatile additive to enhance many industrial applications. Because line of PEG 3350 products are non-toxic and hydrophilic (water-loving), these polymers are used in the home (i.e. to treat surfaces in cleaning agents made by cleaning chemicals manufacturers) as well as in the food production industry (to reduce the amount of foam during the processing of food products). PEG 3350s are generally considered to be biologically inert, making them safe to use throughout the medical and food-processing industries. What is Polyethyleneglycol Used For? Due to the variety of physical properties that can be achieved through PEG 3350 series, formulators in nearly all industries can benefit from this line of PEG 3350 products. A PEG 3350’s unique ability to enhance a dye’s solubility in aqueous formulations causes it to be used throughout the textile industry as dye carriers. PEG 3350s are also exceptional at retaining moisture in complex formulations, as well as to an applied surface, making them excellent humectants and anti-caking agents for cosmetic chemical suppliers and coatings chemical suppliers. This unique relationship with water is further exploited by many other markets as PEG 3350s can help to stabilize emulsions and act as water-miscible co-solvents for aqueous formulations. The food industry uses these compounds as additives to reduce the amount of foam during food processing. Additionally, PEG 3350s find themselves very useful in the pharmaceutical industry due to their ability to act as rheological modifiers, thus being used as excipients. New research techniques are increasingly incorporating PEG 3350 compounds via the use of ‘PEG 3350ylation’ onto protein and peptide therapeutics, thus improving their pharmacokinetics and leading to safer and more effective drugs1-2. Many of PEG 3350 series meet the requirements set forth by the National Formulary (NF) guidelines for safe preparation, manufacture and use of a variety of PEG 3350 compounds that can be used as excipients, botanicals and other similar products. Is Polyethyleneglycol Safe? PEG 3350s are generally considered to be a biologically inert substance, meaning that this class of oligomers and polymers are recognized to be safe for use in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. So, is polyethyleneglycol toxic? Due to the PEG 3350’s structure and its water solubility, these compounds are generally considered to be non-toxic, as studies of demonstrated their safety for use within the field of drug delivery1-2, for application to the skin in cosmetics3 and as additives in the food and vitamin processing industry4. Where applicable, line of PEG 3350s, 6000 powder, adhere to the guidelines for the manufacturing set forth by the National Formulary (NF). Having initially been established by the U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act of 1938, these guidelines are currently recognized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These manufacturing and production guidelines are annually reviewed, requiring to not only adhere to these strict standards, but maintain constant surveillance over the preparation of these non-toxic additives. Additionally, many of PEG 3350 products that are used in agricultural applications are safe for the environment and are on the Environmental Protection Agencies’ (EPA) inert ingredient list, meeting the requirements set forth in 40 CFR 180.910 and 40 CFR 180.930. This makes PEG 3350s attractive for agrochemical companies. Polyethylene Glycol · Adhesives · Agriculture · Ceramics · Chemical Intermediates · Cosmetics · Toiletries · Electroplating / Electropolishing · Food Processing · Household Products · Lubricants · Metal / Metal Fabrication · Paints & Coatings · Paper Industry · Pharmaceuticals · Printing · Rubber & Elastomers · Textiles · Wood Processing AVAILABLE FORMS AND NOMENCLATURE PEG 3350, PEO, and POE refer to an oligomer or polymer of ethylene oxide. The three names are chemically synonymous, but historically PEG 3350 is preferred in the biomedical field, whereas PEO is more prevalent in the field of polymer chemistry. Because different applications require different polymer chain lengths, PEG 3350 has tended to refer to oligomers and polymers with a molecular mass below 20,000 g/mol, PEO to polymers with a molecular mass above 20,000 g/mol, and POE to a polymer of any molecular mass PEG 3350s are prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and are commercially available over a wide range of molecular weights from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol.[ PEG 3350 and PEO are liquids or low-melting solids, depending on their molecular weights. While PEG 3350 and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG 3350 are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process - the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG 3350, or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG 3350. Lower-molecular-weight PEG 3350s are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high purity PEG 3350 has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray diffraction Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10-1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG 3350. PEG 3350s are also available with different geometries. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEG 3350s indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG 3350 with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 3350 400.) Most PEG 3350s include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index(Mw/Mn). Mw and Mn can be measured by mass spectrometry. PEG 3350 is the act of covalently coupling a PEG 3350 structure to another larger molecule, for example, a therapeutic protein, which is then referred to as a PEG 3350 protein. PEG 3350 interferon alfa-2a or -2b are commonly used injectable treatments for hepatitis C infection. PEG 3350 is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, and is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. It is coupled to hydrophobic molecules

PEG-40 Stearate serves as an emulsifier and surfactant in cosmetic formulations.
Emulsifiers help mix oil and water-based ingredients in products, preventing them from separating.
Surfactants, on the other hand, help to reduce the surface tension between different substances, making it easier for them to mix together.

In skincare products, PEG-40 Stearate helps create stable emulsions, allowing oil and water-based ingredients to form consistent formulations.
PEG-40 stearate also contributes to the texture and feel of the product, improving its spreadability and overall application.
Additionally, PEG-40 Stearate can enhance the solubility of certain ingredients in water-based solutions.
PEG-40 stearate's important to note that while PEG-40 Stearate is widely used in the cosmetics industry, there have been concerns about certain PEG compounds potentially being contaminated with harmful impurities, such as 1,4-dioxane, which is considered a potential human carcinogen.
Manufacturers often take steps to purify PEG-40 stearate compounds to minimize the presence of such impurities, and regulatory bodies may set limits on their use to ensure consumer safety.

PEG 40 STEARATE
PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Stearates (PEG-2 Stearate, PEG-6 Stearate, PEG-8 Stearate, PEG-12 Stearate, PEG-20 Stearate, PEG-32 Stearate, PEG-40 Stearate, PEG-50 Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, PEG-150 Stearate) are esters of polyethylene glycol and stearic acid. The PEG Stearates are soft to waxy solids that are white to tan in color. In cosmetics and personal care products, PEG Stearates are used in skin creams, conditioners, shampoos, body cleansers and soapless detergents. PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) is used in cosmetics and beauty products primarily as a surfactant and cleansing agent, because PEG Stearates' ability to clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away, according to. However, it is also seen as an emollient, because of secondary properties. * A surfactant and cleansing agent * Please read TIA’s article on What Is PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate): PEGs Functions of PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate): PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) is used in cosmetics and beauty products primarily as a surfactant and cleansing agent, because PEG Stearates' ability to clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away, according to CosmeticsInfo.org. However, it is also seen as an emollient, because of secondary properties. Unlike typical PEGs, (whose identifying number corresponds to their molecular weight) the numerical value of each PEG Stearate corresponds to the average number of ethylene oxide monomers in the polyethylene chain (from 2 - 150). Despite the many fears regarding PEGs, they are seen as an ingredient in a large number of products because of their diverse properties. In a study published in the Toxicology journal in 2005, entitled "Safety assessment on polyethylene glycols (PEGs) and their derivatives as used in cosmetic products," it was concluded that: "Taking into consideration all available information from related compounds, as well as the mode and mechanism of action, no safety concern with regard to these endpoints could be identified. Based on the available data it is therefore concluded that PEGs of a wide molecular weight range (200 to over 10,000), their ethers (laureths. ceteths, ceteareths, steareths, and oleths), and fatty acid esters (laurates, dilaurates, stearates, distearates) are safe for use in cosmetics." PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) is not considered to be an irritant or sensitizer (it gave only minimal irritation in studies up to 100%), and are CIR and FDA approved for use, but not on broken skin (Source). Safety Measures/Side Effects of PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE): However. The Cosmetics Database found PEG 40 Stearate to be a moderate to high hazard ingredient depending on usage. The EWG issues warnings regarding: cancer, developmental and reproductive toxicity, contamination concerns, irritation, and organ system toxicity. According to a study published in the International Journal of Toxicology, PEGs (including PEG 40 Stearate) can contain harmful impurities, including: Ethylene Oxide, known to increase the incidences of uterine and breast cancers and of leukemia and brain cancer, according to experimental results reported by the National Toxicology Program; 1,4-dioxane, a known carcinogen; PAHs, known to increase the risk of breast cancer; lead; iron; and arsenic (Source). Products and formulas containing PEG 40 Stearate should not be used on broken or irritated skin. Although PEGs are considered safe for use topically on healthy skin, studies showed that patients suffering from severe burns were treated with PEG-based antimicrobial cream; this treatment resulted in kidney toxicity. "The PEG content of the antimicrobial cream was determined to be the causative agent. However, no evidence of systemic toxicity occurred in studies with intact skin. Because of the observation of kidney effects in burn patients, the CIR Expert Panel qualified their conclusion on the safety of the PEG ingredients to state that cosmetic formulations containing these ingredients should not be used on damaged skin" SYNONYMS of PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) Polyoxyl (40) stearate, polyoxyethylene (40) monostearate; INS No. 431 DEFINITION Consists of a mixture of the mono- and diesters of edible commercial stearic acid and mixed polyoxyethylene diols (having an average polymer length of about 40 oxyethylene units) together with free polyol.

Polyoxyethylene (40) stearate has been used in a study to assess the phase behaviors of special hot microemulsion to produce drug-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers. [3] It has also been used in a study to investigate its effects on multidrug resistance (MDR). Polyoxyethylene 40 monostearate, also known as ethylene glycol monostearate or myrj 52, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty acid esters. These are carboxylic ester derivatives of a fatty acid. Polyoxyethylene 40 monostearate is considered to be a practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral molecule. Polyoxyethylene 40 monostearate has been primarily detected in urine. Within the cell, polyoxyethylene 40 monostearate is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP) and cytoplasm. A sample work-up method for gas chromatographic profiling of polyethylene glycol related cmpd in pharmaceutical matrixes is described. After a short sample clean-up, carbon-oxygen linkages were partially cleaved with 0.07/M BBr3 in CH2Cl2 at room temp. The reaction was stopped after 1 min by addn of 0.01M hydrochloric acid. The products were trimethylsilylated and injected onto a WCOT 50 m X 0.25 mm CP-SIL 5 CB fused silica column. Eleven model cmpd, representing 4 common types of polyethylene glycol deriv, were evaluated by this method. Characteristic profiles can be obtained from polyethylene glycol deriv carrying different functional groups. Minimum detectable amt are in the range of 200 ug. Polyoxyl 40 Stearate is used in cosmetics and beauty products primarily as a surfactant and emulsifier. It occurs naturally as a white, waxy or flaky substance, according to The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. CosmeticsInfo.org notes that Polyoxyl 40 Stearate, as part of the PEG Stearate group, are formed from a naturally fatty acid known as Stearic Acid. The PEG Sterates are used in cosmetics and skin care formulas because they can "clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away.

However, a growing body of evidence shows the existence of anti PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) antibodies in approximately 72% of the population based on plasma samples from 1990–1999.[medical citation needed] The FDA has been asked to investigate the possible effects of PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) in laxatives for children.[29] Due to its ubiquity in a multitude of products and the large percentage of the population with antibodies to PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate), hypersensitive reactions to PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) are an increasing concern.[medical citation needed] Allergy to PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) is usually discovered after a person has been diagnosed with an allergy to an increasing number of seemingly unrelated products, including processed foods, cosmetics, drugs, and other substances that contain PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) or were manufactured with PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate).[30] When PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) is chemically attached to therapeutic molecules (such as protein drugs or nanoparticles), it can sometimes be antigenic, stimulating an anti-PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) antibody response in some patients. This effect has only been shown for a few of the many available PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)ylated therapeutics, but it has significant effects on clinical outcomes of affected patients.[31] Other than these few instances where patients have anti-PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) immune responses, it is generally considered to be a safe component of drug formulations. Available forms and nomenclature of PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate), PEO, and POE refer to an oligomer or polymer of ethylene oxide. The three names are chemically synonymous, but historically PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) is preferred in the biomedical field, whereas PEO is more prevalent in the field of polymer chemistry. Because different applications require different polymer chain lengths, PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) has tended to refer to oligomers and polymers with a molecular mass below 20,000 g/mol, PEO to polymers with a molecular mass above 20,000 g/mol, and POE to a polymer of any molecular mass.[32] PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s are prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and are commercially available over a wide range of molecular weights from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol.[33] PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) and PEO are liquids or low-melting solids, depending on their molecular weights. While PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process – the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate), or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate). Lower-molecular-weight PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high purity PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray diffraction.[33] Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10–1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate). PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s are also available with different geometries. Branched PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s have three to ten PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) chains emanating from a central core group. Star PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s have 10 to 100 PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) chains emanating from a central core group. Comb PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s have multiple PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) chains normally grafted onto a polymer backbone. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) 400.) Most PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index (Mw/Mn). Mw and Mn can be measured by mass spectrometry. PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)ylation is the act of covalently coupling a PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) structure to another larger molecule, for example, a therapeutic protein, which is then referred to as a PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)ylated protein. PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)ylated interferon alfa-2a or −2b are commonly used injectable treatments for hepatitis C infection. PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, and is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. It is coupled to hydrophobic molecules to produce non-ionic surfactants.[34] PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s potentially contain toxic impurities, such as ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane.[35] Ethylene Glycol and its ethers are nephrotoxic if applied to damaged skin.[36] Polyethylene oxide (PEO, Mw 4 kDa) nanometric crystallites (4 nm) Polyethylene glycol (PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)) and related polymers (PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) phospholipid constructs) are often sonicated when used in biomedical applications. However, as reported by Murali et al., PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) is very sensitive to sonolytic degradation and PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) degradation products can be toxic to mammalian cells. It is, thus, imperative to assess potential PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate) degradation to ensure that the final material does not contain undocumented contaminants that can introduce artifacts into experimental results.[37] PEG 40 STEARATE (POLYOXYETHYLENE 40 STEARATE) (Polioksietilen 40 stearat) (Polyoxyl 40 stearate)s and methoxypolyethylene glycols are manufactured by Dow Chemical under the tradename Carbowax for industrial use, and Carbowax Sentry for food and pharmaceutical use. They vary in consistency from liquid to solid, depending on the molecular weight, as indicated by a number following the name. They are used commercially in numerous applications, including as surfactants, in foods, in cosmetics, in pharmaceutics, in biomedicine, as dispersing agents, as solvents, in ointments, in suppository bases, as tablet excipients, and as laxatives. Some specific groups are lauromacrogols, nonoxynols, octoxynols, and poloxamers. Macrogol, used as a laxative, is a form of polyethylene glycol. The name may be followed by a number which represents the average molecular weight (e.g. macrogol 3350, macrogol 4000 or macrogol 6000).

PEG 4000
PEG 4000 Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000; /ˌpɒliˈɛθəlˌiːn ˈɡlaɪˌkɒl, -ˌkɔːl/) is a polyether compound with many applications, from industrial manufacturing to medicine. PEG 4000 is also known as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or polyoxyethylene (POE), depending on its molecular weight. The structure of PEG 4000 is commonly expressed as H−(O−CH2−CH2)n−OH. Uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000 Medical uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) Main article: Macrogol PEG 4000 is the basis of a number of laxatives.[4] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 4000 is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[5] The possibility that PEG 4000 could be used to fuse axons is being explored by researchers studying peripheral nerve and spinal cord injury.[4] Chemical uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG 4000 in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG 4000 is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[6] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[7] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[8] Since PEG 4000 is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres). It also is unlikely to have specific interactions with biological chemicals. These properties make PEG 4000 one of the most useful molecules for applying osmotic pressure in biochemistry and biomembranes experiments, in particular when using the osmotic stress technique. Polyethylene glycol is also commonly used as a polar stationary phase for gas chromatography, as well as a heat transfer fluid in electronic testers. PEG 4000 has also been used to preserve objects that have been salvaged from underwater, as was the case with the warship Vasa in Stockholm,[9] and similar cases. It replaces water in wooden objects, making the wood dimensionally stable and preventing warping or shrinking of the wood when it dries.[4] In addition, PEG 4000 is used when working with green wood as a stabilizer, and to prevent shrinkage.[10] PEG 4000 has been used to preserve the painted colors on Terracotta Warriors unearthed at a UNESCO World Heritage site in China.[11] These painted artifacts were created during the Qin Shi Huang (first emperor of China) era. Within 15 seconds of the terra-cotta pieces being unearthed during excavations, the lacquer beneath the paint begins to curl after being exposed to the dry Xi'an air. The paint would subsequently flake off in about four minutes. The German Bavarian State Conservation Office developed a PEG 4000 preservative that when immediately applied to unearthed artifacts has aided in preserving the colors painted on the pieces of clay soldiers.[12] PEG 4000 is often used (as an internal calibration compound) in mass spectrometry experiments, with its characteristic fragmentation pattern allowing accurate and reproducible tuning. PEG 4000 derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 4000 has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers used to create some polymersomes.[13] PEG 4000 has also been used as a propellent on the UGM-133M Trident II Missile, in service with the United States Air Force.[14] Biological uses PEG 4000 is commonly used as a crowding agent in in vitro assays to mimic highly crowded cellular conditions.[6] PEG 4000 is commonly used as a precipitant for plasmid DNA isolation and protein crystallization. X-ray diffraction of protein crystals can reveal the atomic structure of the proteins. PEG 4000 is used to fuse two different types of cells, most often B-cells and myelomas in order to create hybridomas. Polymer segments derived from PEG 4000 polyols impart flexibility to polyurethanes for applications such as elastomeric fibers (spandex) and foam cushions. In microbiology, PEG 4000 precipitation is used to concentrate viruses. PEG 4000 is also used to induce complete fusion (mixing of both inner and outer leaflets) in liposomes reconstituted in vitro. Gene therapy vectors (such as viruses) can be PEG 4000-coated to shield them from inactivation by the immune system and to de-target them from organs where they may build up and have a toxic effect.[15] The size of the PEG 4000 polymer has been shown to be important, with larger polymers achieving the best immune protection. PEG 4000 is a component of stable nucleic acid lipid particles (SNALPs) used to package siRNA for use in vivo. In blood banking, PEG 4000 is used as a potentiator to enhance detection of antigens and antibodies. When working with phenol in a laboratory situation, PEG 4000 300 can be used on phenol skin burns to deactivate any residual phenol (some references are required). In biophysics, polyethylene glycols are the molecules of choice for the functioning ion channels diameter studies, because in aqueous solutions they have a spherical shape and can block ion channel conductance. Commercial uses PEG 4000 is the basis of many skin creams (as cetomacrogol) and personal lubricants (frequently combined with glycerin). PEG 4000 is used in a number of toothpastes[4] as a dispersant. In this application, it binds water and helps keep xanthan gum uniformly distributed throughout the toothpaste. PEG 4000 is also under investigation for use in body armor, and in tattoos to monitor diabetes. In low-molecular-weight formulations (e.g. PEG 4000 400), it is used in Hewlett-Packard designjet printers as an ink solvent and lubricant for the print heads. PEG 4000 is also used as an anti-foaming agent in food and drinks[23] – its INS number is 1521 or E1521 in the EU. Industrial uses A nitrate ester-plasticized polyethylene glycol (NEPE-75) is used in Trident II submarine-launched ballistic missile solid rocket fuel.[26] Dimethyl ethers of PEG 4000 are the key ingredient of Selexol, a solvent used by coal-burning, integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants to remove carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from the gas waste stream. PEG 4000 has been used as the gate insulator in an electric double-layer transistor to induce superconductivity in an insulator.[27] PEG 4000 is also used as a polymer host for solid polymer electrolytes. Although not yet in commercial production, many groups around the globe are engaged in research on solid polymer electrolytes involving PEG 4000, with the aim of improving their properties, and in permitting their use in batteries, electro-chromic display systems, and other products in the future. PEG 4000 is injected into industrial processes to reduce foaming in separation equipment. PEG 4000 is used as a binder in the preparation of technical ceramics.[28] Recreational uses PEG 4000 is used to extend the size and durability of very large soap bubbles. PEG 4000 is the main ingredient in many personal lubricants. Health effects PEG 4000 is considered biologically inert and safe by the FDA. However, a growing body of evidence shows the existence of anti PEG 4000 antibodies in approximately 72% of the population based on plasma samples from 1990–1999.[medical citation needed] The FDA has been asked to investigate the possible effects of PEG 4000 in laxatives for children.[29] Due to its ubiquity in a multitude of products and the large percentage of the population with antibodies to PEG 4000, hypersensitive reactions to PEG 4000 are an increasing concern.[medical citation needed] Allergy to PEG 4000 is usually discovered after a person has been diagnosed with an allergy to an increasing number of seemingly unrelated products, including processed foods, cosmetics, drugs, and other substances that contain PEG 4000 or were manufactured with PEG 4000.[30] When PEG 4000 is chemically attached to therapeutic molecules (such as protein drugs or nanoparticles), it can sometimes be antigenic, stimulating an anti-PEG 4000 antibody response in some patients. This effect has only been shown for a few of the many available PEG 4000 therapeutics, but it has significant effects on clinical outcomes of affected patients.[31] Other than these few instances where patients have anti-PEG 4000 immune responses, it is generally considered to be a safe component of drug formulations. Available forms and nomenclature PEG 4000, PEO, and POE refer to an oligomer or polymer of ethylene oxide. The three names are chemically synonymous, but historically PEG 4000 is preferred in the biomedical field, whereas PEO is more prevalent in the field of polymer chemistry. Because different applications require different polymer chain lengths, PEG 4000 has tended to refer to oligomers and polymers with a molecular mass below 20,000 g/mol, PEO to polymers with a molecular mass above 20,000 g/mol, and POE to a polymer of any molecular mass.[32] PEG 4000s are prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and are commercially available over a wide range of molecular weights from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol.[33] PEG 4000 and PEO are liquids or low-melting solids, depending on their molecular weights. While PEG 4000 and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG 4000 are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process – the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG 4000, or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG 4000. Lower-molecular-weight PEG 4000s are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high purity PEG 4000 has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray diffraction.[33] Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10–1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG 4000. PEG 4000s are also available with different geometries. Branched PEG 4000s have three to ten PEG 4000 chains emanating from a central core group. Star PEG 4000s have 10 to 100 PEG 4000 chains emanating from a central core group. Comb PEG 4000s have multiple PEG 4000 chains normally grafted onto a polymer backbone. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEG 4000s indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG 4000 with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 4000 400.) Most PEG 4000s include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index (Mw/Mn). Mw and Mn can be measured by mass spectrometry. PEG 4000ylation is the act of covalently coupling a PEG 4000 structure to another larger molecule, for example, a therapeutic protein, which is then referred to as a PEG 4000 protein. PEG 4000 interferon alfa-2a or −2b are commonly used injectable treatments for hepatitis C infection. PEG 4000 is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, and is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. It is coupled to hydrophobic molecules to produce non-ionic surfactants.[34] PEG 4000s potentially contain toxic impurities, such as ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane.[35] Ethylene Glycol and its ethers are nephrotoxic if applied to damaged skin.[36] Polyethylene oxide (PEO, Mw 4 kDa) nanometric crystallites (4 nm) Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) and related polymers (PEG 4000 phospholipid constructs) are often sonicated when used in biomedical applications. However, as reported by Murali et al., PEG 4000 is very sensitive to sonolytic degradation and PEG 4000 degradation products can be toxic to mammalian cells. It is, thus, imperative to assess potential PEG 4000 degradation to ensure that the final material does not contain undocumented contaminants that can introduce artifacts into experimental results.[37] PEG 4000s and methoxypolyethylene glycols are manufactured by Dow Chemical under the tradename Carbowax for industrial use, and Carbowax Sentry for food and pharmaceutical use. They vary in consistency from liquid to solid, depending on the molecular weight, as indicated by a number following the name. They are used commercially in numerous applications, including as surfactants, in foods, in cosmetics, in pharmaceutics, in biomedicine, as dispersing agents, as solvents, in ointments, in suppository bases, as tablet excipients, and as laxatives. Some specific groups are lauromacrogols, nonoxynols, octoxynols, and poloxamers. Macrogol, used as a laxative, is a form of polyethylene glycol. The name may be followed by a number which represents the average molecular weight. Production of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) Polyethylene glycol 400, pharmaceutical quality Polyethylene glycol 4000, pharmaceutical quality The production of polyethylene glycol was first reported in 1859. Both A. V. Lourenço and Charles Adolphe Wurtz independently isolated products that were polyethylene glycols.[38] Polyethylene glycol is produced by the interaction of ethylene oxide with water, ethylene glycol, or ethylene glycol oligomers.[39] The reaction is catalyzed by acidic or basic catalysts. Ethylene glycol and its oligomers are preferable as a starting material instead of water, because they allow the creation of polymers with a low polydispersity (narrow molecular weight distribution). Polymer chain length depends on the ratio of reactants. HOCH2CH2OH + n(CH2CH2O) → HO(CH2CH2O)n+1H Depending on the catalyst type, the mechanism of polymerization can be cationic or anionic. The anionic mechanism is preferable because it allows one to obtain PEG 4000 with a low polydispersity. Polymerization of ethylene oxide is an exothermic process. Overheating or contaminating ethylene oxide with catalysts such as alkalis or metal oxides can lead to runaway polymerization, which can end in an explosion after a few hours. Polyethylene oxide, or high-molecular weight polyethylene glycol, is synthesized by suspension polymerization. It is necessary to hold the growing polymer chain in solution in the course of the polycondensation process. The reaction is catalyzed by magnesium-, aluminium-, or calcium-organoelement compounds. To prevent coagulation of polymer chains from solution, chelating additives such as dimethylglyoxime are used. Alkaline catalysts such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH), or sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) are used to prepare low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) is a versatile polyether being utilized in various applications, in particular in medicine. Polyethylene oxide (PEO) is another name for PEG 4000. Typically, ethylene oxide macromolecules (Fig. 18.9) with molecular weights less than 20,000 g/mol are called PEG 4000, while those having values above 20,000 g/mol are named PEO. It is reported that PEG 4000 is soluble in water, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, while it is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. PEG 4000 is available in different structures such as branched, star, and comb-like macromolecules. PEG 4000ylation is an attractive process in which PEG 4000 is bonded to another molecule, which is promising in therapeutic methods. PEG 4000 can hinder the protein adsorption which is essential in drug delivery to minimize the protein corona formation [29]. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) is a hydrophilic polymer of ethylene oxide. The non-immunogenic, biocompatible and flexible nature of PEG 4000 makes it a suitable synthetic dressing material for wound healing. The low toxic PEG 4000 macromers are well bonded with growth factor like EGF and can be delivered at the wound site [98]. The mechanical stability of PEG 4000 can be enhanced by blending PEG 4000 with chitosan and PLGA. Blending also increases thermal stability and crystallinity of the particular polymer [99]. Such PEG 4000-based dressings have been widely used to treat a diabetic wound by promoting and inducing growth of skin cells and collagen deposition. It also reduces scar formation [100]. The injectable hybrid hydrogel dressing system is developed from PEG 4000-based hyperbranched multiacrylated co-polymer and HA in combination with adipose-derived stem cells to support the viability of cells in vitro and in vivo. It prevents wound contraction and enhances angiogenesis by acting as temporary hydrogel for wound healing purpose [101]. Hydrophilic Materials Based on Polyethylene Glycol Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) is the most relevant antifouling polymer in biomedical devices. PEG 4000 antifouling properties are thought to be related to surface hydration and steric hindrance effects (Chen et al., 2010). PEG 4000 chains linked to a material surface assume a brush-like configuration at the water/surface interface, limiting the approach to the surface by bacteria. Compression of the highly hydrated layer of PEG 4000 chains is unfavorable because it would involve a reduction in PEG 4000 chain mobility and removal of water molecules. Surface packing density and polymer chain length can be used to control PEG 4000 antifouling properties (Roosjen et al., 2004). PEG 4000-functionalized PUs were developed by PEG 4000 introduction either in the polymer backbone (Corneillie et al., 1998) or polymer side chain (Francolini et al., 2019). Auto-oxidization in the presence of oxygen, metal ions, and enzymes able to oxidize PEG 4000 hydroxyl groups, however, may limit long-term effectiveness. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) is another important type of PCM for textile applications. The repeating unit in PEG 4000 is oxyethylene (–O–CH2–CH2–) containing hydroxyl group on either side of the chain. The melting point of PEG 4000 depends on its molecular weight and is proportional as the molecular weight increases. The phase-change temperature of PEG 4000 can be determined using DSC (Pielichowski and Flejtuch, 2002). PEG 4000 with degree of polymerization 1000 has phase-change temperature of 35°C, while PEG 4000 with degree of polymerization 20,000 has melting temperature of 63°C (Craig and Newton, 1991; Hopp et al., 2000). Jiang et al. (2016) synthesized a dual-functional magnetic microcapsules containing a PCM core and an organo-silica shell for the electromagnetic shielding and thermal regulating applications. Fig. 20.6 shows the resulting DSC curves where the areas under the peaks indicate the amount of latent heat contained using different organosilanes/PEG 4000 weight ratios. PEG 4000 is the basis of a number of laxatives.[3] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 4000 is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[4] The possibility that PEG 4000 could be used to fuse nerve cells is being explored by researchers studying spinal cord injury.[3] Chemical uses The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG 4000 in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG 4000 is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[5] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[6] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[7] Since PEG is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres). It also is unlikely to have specific interactions with biological chemicals. These properties make PEG 4000 one of the most useful molecules for applying osmotic pressure in biochemistry and biomembranes experiments, in particular when using the osmotic stress technique. Polyethylene glycol is also commonly used as a polar stationary phase for gas chromatography, as well as a heat transfer fluid in electronic testers. PEG 4000 has also been used to preserve objects that have been salvaged from underwater, as was the case with the warship Vasa in Stockholm,[8] and similar cases. It replaces water in wooden objects, making the wood dimensionally stable and preventing warping or shrinking of the wood when it dries.[3] In addition, PEG 4000 is used when working with green wood as a stabilizer, and to prevent shrinkage.[9] PEG has been used to preserve the painted colors on Terracotta Warriors unearthed at a UNESCO World Heritage site in China.[10] These painted artifacts were created during the Qin Shi Huang Di dynasty (first emperor of China). Within 15 seconds of the terra-cotta pieces being unearthed during excavations, the lacquer beneath the paint begins to curl after being exposed to the dry Xian air. The paint would subsequently flake off in about four minutes. The German Bavarian State Conservation Office developed a PEG 4000 preservative that when immediately applied to unearthed artifacts has aided in preserving the colors painted on the pieces of clay soldiers.[11] PEG 4000 is often used (as an internal calibration compound) in mass spectrometry experiments, with its characteristic fragmentation pattern allowing accurate and reproducible tuning. PEG 4000 derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 4000 is a polyol and can be reacted with an isocyanate to make polyurethane. PEG 4000 has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers used to create some polymersomes.[12] Biological uses PEG 4000 is commonly used as a crowding agent in in vitro assays to mimic highly crowded cellular conditions. PEG 4000 is commonly used as a precipitant for plasmid DNA isolation and protein crystallization. X-ray diffraction of protein crystals can reveal the atomic structure of the proteins. PEG is used to fuse two different types of cells, most often B-cells and myelomas in order to create hybridomas. César Milstein and Georges J. F. Köhler originated this technique, which they used for antibody production, winning a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1984.[3] Polymer segments derived from PEG polyols impart flexibility to polyurethanes for applications such as elastomeric fibers (spandex) and foam cushions. In microbiology, PEG 4000 precipitation is used to concentrate viruses. PEG is also used to induce complete fusion (mixing of both inner and outer leaflets) in liposomes reconstituted in vitro. Gene therapy vectors (such as viruses) can be PEG-coated to shield them from inactivation by the immune system and to de-target them from organs where they may build up and have a toxic effect.[13] The size of the PEG polymer has been shown to be important, with larger polymers achieving the best immune protection. PEG is a component of stable nucleic acid lipid particles (SNALPs) used to package siRNA for use in vivo. In blood banking, PEG is used as a potentiator to enhance detection of antigens and antibodies.[3][16] When working with phenol in a laboratory situation, PEG 300 can be used on phenol skin burns to deactivate any residual phenol. In biophysics, polyethylene glycols are the molecules of choice for the functioning ion channels diameter studies, because in aqueous solutions they have a spherical shape and can block ion channel conductance. What is Polyethyleneglycol? Polyethyleneglycol, or PEG 4000 for short, is a polyether consisting of a (-O-CH2-CH2-) backbone that is commonly used in many fields of academic research, industrial processing and commercial applications. PEG 4000s can also commonly be referred to as polyoxyethylene (POE) and polyethyleneoxide (PEO), but regardless of the name that is used, the simple structure of PEG 4000s (which consists of solely carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, see image below) affords safe compounds that are used throughout everyday life. Additionally, it is this simple structure that separates PEG 4000s from similar compounds like propylene glycol and polypropyleneglycol. The two aforementioned compounds (polyethyleneglycol vs. propylene glycol) are derivatives of propylene oxide, which, when polymerized, bestows a completely different set of physical characteristics to the compound as compared to PEG 4000. The method in which PEG 4000s are created allows for a wide variability in their physical attributes, allowing them to be utilized by many commercial markets. By controlling a PEG 4000’s size (i.e. molecular weight) and its size distribution, a wide variety of physical properties can be achieved, which sets Oxiteno’s line of PEG 4000 products, the 6000 powder series, apart from other name brands of polyethyleneglycols. Due to the vast number of product types offered 6000 powder products (click here for a full listing), many physical forms (liquids, pastes, solids, flakes, powder, etc.) and viscosities of PEG 4000s are available. It is the numerous attributes of PEG 4000s that allow for their inclusion in a vast array of applications, ranging from the pharmaceutical industry to cosmetic markets. While the structure of PEG 4000 is simple, it is this compound’s solubility in water is what makes it such a versatile additive to enhance many industrial applications. Because line of PEG 4000 products are non-toxic and hydrophilic (water-loving), these polymers are used in the home (i.e. to treat surfaces in cleaning agents made by cleaning chemicals manufacturers) as well as in the food production industry (to reduce the amount of foam during the processing of food products). PEG 4000s are generally considered to be biologically inert, making them safe to use throughout the medical and food-processing industries. What is Polyethyleneglycol Used For? Due to the variety of physical properties that can be achieved through PEG 4000 series, formulators in nearly all industries can benefit from this line of PEG 4000 products. A PEG 4000’s unique ability to enhance a dye’s solubility in aqueous formulations causes it to be used throughout the textile industry as dye carriers. PEG 4000s are also exceptional at retaining moisture in complex formulations, as well as to an applied surface, making them excellent humectants and anti-caking agents for cosmetic chemical suppliers and coatings chemical suppliers. This unique relationship with water is further exploited by many other markets as PEG 4000s can help to stabilize emulsions and act as water-miscible co-solvents for aqueous formulations. The food industry uses these compounds as additives to reduce the amount of foam during food processing. Additionally, PEG 4000s find themselves very useful in the pharmaceutical industry due to their ability to act as rheological modifiers, thus being used as excipients. New research techniques are increasingly incorporating PEG 4000 compounds via the use of ‘PEG 4000ylation’ onto protein and peptide therapeutics, thus improving their pharmacokinetics and leading to safer and more effective drugs1-2. Many of PEG 4000 series meet the requirements set forth by the National Formulary (NF) guidelines for safe preparation, manufacture and use of a variety of PEG 4000 compounds that can be used as excipients, botanicals and other similar products. Is Polyethyleneglycol Safe? PEG 4000s are generally considered to be a biologically inert substance, meaning that this class of oligomers and polymers are recognized to be safe for use in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. So, is polyethyleneglycol toxic? Due to the PEG 4000’s structure and its water solubility, these compounds are generally considered to be non-toxic, as studies of demonstrated their safety for use within the field of drug delivery1-2, for application to the skin in cosmetics3 and as additives in the food and vitamin processing industry4. Where applicable, line of PEG 4000s, 6000 powder, adhere to the guidelines for the manufacturing set forth by the National Formulary (NF). Having initially been established by the U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act of 1938, these guidelines are currently recognized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These manufacturing and production guidelines are annually reviewed, requiring to not only adhere to these strict standards, but maintain constant surveillance over the preparation of these non-toxic additives. Additionally, many of PEG 4000 products that are used in agricultural applications are safe for the environment and are on the Environmental Protection Agencies’ (EPA) inert ingredient list, meeting the requirements set forth in 40 CFR 180.910 and 40 CFR 180.930. This makes PEG 4000s attractive for agrochemical companies. Polyethylene Glycol · Adhesives · Agriculture · Ceramics · Chemical Intermediates · Cosmetics · Toiletries · Electroplating / Electropolishing · Food Processing · Household Products · Lubricants · Metal / Metal Fabrication · Paints & Coatings · Paper Industry · Pharmaceuticals · Printing · Rubber & Elastomers · Textiles · Wood Processing AVAILABLE FORMS AND NOMENCLATURE PEG 4000, PEO, and POE refer to an oligomer or polymer of ethylene oxide. The three names are chemically synonymous, but historically PEG 4000 is preferred in the biomedical field, whereas PEO is more prevalent in the field of polymer chemistry. Because different applications require different polymer chain lengths, PEG 4000 has tended to refer to oligomers and polymers with a molecular mass below 20,000 g/mol, PEO to polymers with a molecular mass above 20,000 g/mol, and POE to a polymer of any molecular mass PEG 4000s are prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and are commercially available over a wide range of molecular weights from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol.[ PEG 4000 and PEO are liquids or low-melting solids, depending on their molecular weights. While PEG 4000 and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG 4000 are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process - the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG 4000, or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG 4000. Lower-molecular-weight PEG 4000s are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high purity PEG 4000 has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray diffraction Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10-1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG 4000. PEG 4000s are also available with different geometries. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEG 4000s indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG 4000 with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 4000 400.) Most PEG 4000s include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index(Mw/Mn). Mw and Mn can be measured by mass spectrometry. PEG 4000 is the act of covalently coupling a PEG 4000 structure to another larger molecule, for example, a therapeutic protein, which is then referred to as a PEG 4000 protein. PEG 4000 interferon alfa-2a or -2b are commonly used injectable treatments for hepatitis C infection. PEG 4000 is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, and is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. It is coupled to hydrophobic molecules

It is a clear liquid and slightly sweet in taste. Along with their high fat content, texture and antioxidant qualities in triglycerides, they use them exclusively for soaps and skin care products. PEG 6 Emolyan Softeners are ingredients that soften your skin. Softeners work by trapping moisture in your skin and creating a protective layer to keep moisture out. PEG 6 is an effective skin softening agent. PEG 6 Dispersing agent Dispersants are parts of any chemical or organic compound that hold the ingredients together and stabilize them.Mixing other active ingredients, pigments or fragrances in a good dispersing agent prevents the ingredients from mixing together or sinking into the bottom of the mixture. The waxy and thick consistency of PEG 6s makes them an excellent dispersing agent. PEG 6 Solvent Solvents are ingredients that can dissolve or break down some ingredients or compounds. Ingredients are solvents based on how their molecules are constructed and shaped, and how they interact with other substances.PEG 6 can dissolve compounds designed to clump together. While some solvents have toxic components, PEG 6 does not carry these risks. PEG 6 Antioxidant Antioxidants work to neutralize the toxins you are exposed to every day in your environment. Antioxidants stop the chain reaction called oxidation that can age your skin and damage your body.PEG 6 is full of antioxidants that help protect your skin and make you feel younger. PEG 6 uses PEG 6 can be found in topical skin care products you use on and around your face. Used for: Extends the shelf life of these products,add a light and oil-free glow to your skin,increasing the antioxidants in the product. These products include: Moisturizing face creams,anti aging serums,sunscreens,eye creams. PEG 6 in cosmetics PEG 6 is a popular ingredient in makeup and other cosmetics. The ingredient distributes pigments evenly in a cosmetic formula without leaving your skin feeling sticky. This ingredient is often listed in these cosmetics: Lipstick,lip balm,Lip pencil,cream and liquid foundations,eyeliner. Is PEG 6 safe? PEG 6 carries very low toxicity, if available for topical use. The FDA states that it is generally considered safe in low amounts as a food additive. This means that consuming trace amounts that may be in your lipstick or lip balm is non-toxic.If you do not have a severe allergy to coconut oil, the risk of allergic reactions triggered by using PEG 6 is very low.There are some environmental concerns for PEG 6 use. We don't know enough about how it disperses in nature and whether it could ultimately pose a threat to wildlife. More research is needed to determine the safest ways to dispose of products containing PEG 6s. PEG 6 Take away Current research states that PEG 6 is safe for most people. Consuming small amounts as a food additive, sweetener or cosmetic product does not pose a risk to your health.Capric acid / PEG 6 is one of the cleanest ingredients you can find as a natural alternative to chemical ingredients.Everyone's skin reacts differently to different chemicals. Always be careful when using a new cosmetic product or face cream. PEG 6 is an ingredient used in soap and cosmetics. It is usually made by combining coconut oil with glycerin. This component is sometimes called capric triglyceride. Sometimes mistakenly fractionated is also called coconut oil.PEG 6 has been widely used for more than 50 years. It smoothes the skin and works as an antioxidant. It also binds other ingredients together and can work as a kind of preservative to make the active ingredients in cosmetics last longer.PEG 6 is valued as a more natural alternative to other synthetic chemicals found in topical skin products. Companies that claim their products to be "all natural" or "organic" often contain PEG 6.Although technically made from natural ingredients, the PEG 6 used in products is generally not found in nature. A chemical process separates the oily liquid so a "pure" version can be added to the products.It is low viscosity, softener and lubricant that does not feel greasy. It is widely used especially in "oil-free" products. It is a great advantage that it is not oxidized. It is an ideal solvent for active ingredients to be used in skin and hair care, as well as make-up products.Derived from coconut oil and glycerin, it’s considered an excellent emollient and skin-replenishing ingredient. It’s included in cosmetics due to its mix of fatty acids that skin can use to replenish its surface and resist moisture loss. PEG 6 can also function as a thickener, but its chief job is to moisturize and replenish skin. This ingredient’s value for skin is made greater by the fact that it’s considered gentle.PEG 6 is an oily liquid made from palm kernel or coconut oil. It is a mixed ester composed of caprylic and capric fatty acids attached to a glycerin backbone. PEG 6 are sometimes erroneously referred to as fractionated coconut oil, which is similar in composition but typically refers to coconut oil that has had its longer chain triglycerides removed. Chemically speaking, fats and oils are made up mostly of triglycerides whose fatty acids are chains ranging from 6–12 carbon atoms, in this case the ester is comprised of capric (10 carbon atoms) and caprylic (8 carbon atoms).PEG 6 creates a barrier on the skin's surface, which helps to reduce skin dryness by decreasing the loss of moisture. Its oily texture helps to thicken and provides a slipperiness, which helps make our lotions and natural strength deodorants easy to apply and leaves a non-greasy after-touch.PEG 6 are naturally occurring in coconut and palm kernel oils at lower levels but to make this pure ingredient, the oils are split and the specific fatty acid (capric acid and caprylic acid are isolated and recombined with the glycerin backbone to form the pure capric/caprylic triglyceride which is then further purified (bleached and deodorized) using clay, heat and steam. No other additives or processing aids are used.PEG 6 is a mixed ester composed of caprylic and capric fatty acids attached to a glycerin backbone. PEG 6 are sometimes erroneously referred to as fractionated coconut oil, which is similar in composition but typically refers to coconut oil that has had its longer chain triglycerides removed. Chemically speaking, fats and oils are made up mostly of triglycerides whose fatty acids are chains ranging from 6–12 carbon atoms, in this case the ester is comprised of capric (10 carbon atoms) and caprylic (8 carbon atoms).PEG 6 are a specialized esterification of Coconut Oil using just the Caprylic and Capric Fatty Acids, while Fractionated Coconut Oil is a, standard, distillation of Coconut Oil which results in a combination of all of the fatty acids, pulled through the distillation process. PEG 6 is non-greasy and light weight. It comes in the form of an oily liquid and mainly works as an emollient, dispersing agent and solvent.PEG 6 is a mixed triester derived from coconut oil and glycerine which comes in the form of an oily liquid, and is sometimes mistakenly referred to as fractionated coconut oil which shares a similar INCI name.It is usually used in skin care as an emollient, dispersing agent and solvent. As an emollient, it quickly penetrates the surface to condition the skin and hair, and provides a lightweight, non-greasy lubricating barrier. As a dispersing agent, it helps enhance the delivery of vitamins, pigments and active ingredients contained in a solution so that they become evenly spread and fully absorbed by the epidermis. It's oily texture thickens cosmetic formulas and provides a slipperiness, which in turn allows the easy spreadability of solutions and a smooth after-feel.Cosmetic formulators value this product for its lack of colour and odour, as well as for its stability. It has such great stability and resistance to oxidation that it has an almost indefinite shelf life.PEG 6 are a stable, oxidation-resistant esterification of plant origin. They are rapidly absorbed and are a good substitute for vegetable oils in emulsions. The product provides softness and suppleness and does not cause greasiness.They are also insoluble in water and are ideal as an additive for dry oils, emulsions, serums, creams targeted towards oily and impure skin and macerates in oil.PEG 6 – also known as MCT Oil – is a classic emollient derived from renewable natural raw materials. It is produced from vegetable Glycerine and fractionated vegetable Fatty Acids, mainly Caprylic and Capric Acids. MCT Oil is a clear and colourless liquid, neutral in odour and taste. It is fully saturated and therefore highly resistant to oxidation. Our production units, based in Germany and Malaysia, are backwards integrated into the feedstock and dedicated to the production of MCT Oils. PEG 6 is a clear liquid derived from coconut oil, which is an edible substance that comes from the coconut nut of the coconut palm tree. Coconut palms, cocos nucifera, grow around the world in lowland tropical and subtropical areas where annual precipitation is low.PEG 6 is a digestible ingredient used in hundreds of personal care and household products, such as baby wipes, lotion, makeup, deodorant, sunscreen, and hair-care items.We use PEG 6 in our products as a moisturizer. Palm oil is a common alternative, but it is an endangered resource. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review has deemed PEG 6 safe in cosmetic formulations, and the Food and Drug Administration has deemed PEG 6 as generally recognized as safe (GRAS) in food.[10] Whole Foods has deemed the ingredient acceptable in its body care quality standards.[11] Studies show that PEG 6 have very low toxicity to people and animals when eaten, injected, or put on the skin or eyes.[12] Studies also show PEG 6 is not a skin irritant.Caprylic triglyceride is the mixed triester of glycerin and caprylic and capric acids. It is made by first separating the fatty acids and the glycerol in coconut oil. This is done by hydrolyzing the coconut oil, which involves applying heat and pressure to the oil to split it apart. The acids then go through esterification to add back the glycerol. The resulting oil is called PEG 6. It has different properties from raw coconut oil.PEG 6 is produced by reacting coconut oil with glycerol through esterification. MCT Oil is not oil; it is an ester which primarily contains the Caprylic and Capric medium chain triglycerides present in the coconut oil. PEG 6 is a clear, colorless and virtually odorless liquid that dispenses quickly at room temperature as compared to its raw material coconut oil which is solid at room temperature. PEG 6 are commonly used in cosmetics as it absorbs rapidly into the skin and adds a smooth and dry oil feel to the skin. It is often used as an ingredient in cream, lotion, moisturizer, cleanser & face wash, serum, and others. PEG 6 developed around fifty years ago as an energy source for patients suffering from fat malabsorption syndrome which still finds applications in medical, nutritional products due to the purity and the unique attributes of PEG 6.

PEG 60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is the polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative of hydrogenated castor oil. It's uses are common in this form as an emulsifier and a fragrance ingredient.PEG 60 has the FDA-approval for external use. Studies have found PEG 60 to be safe in concentrations of up to 100%. Generally speaking, PEGs are not skin irritants. PEG 60's molecular weight of 60 means it is only minimally absorbed into the skin.However, there is quite a bit of controversy over the safety of PEG 60. While the FDA approved it for external use, the Cosmetics Database found it to be moderately hazardous. According to the database, contamination is possible with potentially toxic impurities. Studies show that applying products containing PEG 60 to severe burns can result in kidney toxicity. So never apply to broken skin due to the risk of organic toxicity.How can PEG 60 be so toxic when absorbed by the body when pure castor oil is so safe? To understand that, we need to look at the scientific process of ethoxylation.PEG 60 is a result of the ethoxylation process. When hydrogenated castor oil is ethoxylated with ethylene oxide, which is a petroleum-based chemical, the process may introduce the carcinogen 1,4 dioxane as a contaminant. It also may not. This is a possibility each time the ethoxylation process occurs. However, it is not a guarantee that the product result is without contamination.PEG 60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is the polyethylene glycol derivatives of hydrogenated castor oil, and is an amber colored, slightly viscous liquid that has a naturally mildly fatty odor. It is used in cosmetics and beauty products as an emulsifier, surfactant, and fragrance ingredient, according to research.PEG Castor Oils and PEG Hydrogenated Castor Oils are a family of polyethylene glycol derivatives of castor oil and hydrogenated castor oil that are used in over 500 formulations representing a wide variety of cosmetic products. They are used as skin conditioning agents and as surfactants (emulsifying and or solubilizing agents). The PEG Castor Oils and PEG Hydrogenated Castor Oils include various chain lengths, depending on the quantity of ethylene oxide used in synthesis. Although not all polymer lengths have been studied, it is considered acceptable to extrapolate the results of the few that have been studied to allingredients in the family. Because a principal noncosmetic use of PEG Castor Oils is as solvents for intravenous drugs, clinical data are available that indicate intravenous exposure can result in cardiovascular changes. Results from animal studies indicate very high LD50 values, with some evidence of acute nephrotoxicity in rats but not in rabbits. Short-term studies with intravenous exposure produced some evidence of toxicity in dogs but not in rabbits. Intramusuclar injection produced no toxicity in several species, including dogs. Subchronic oral studies also were negative. No dermal or ocular irritation was observed in studies in rabbits. Irritation was seen during induction, but no sen-sitization was found on challenge in guinea-pig studies using up to 50% PEG-35 Castor Oil; however, thisingredient was found to be a potent adjuvant in guinea pigs and mice. No evidence of developmental toxicity was seen in mice and rat feeding studies. Theseingredients, tested as vehicle controls, produced no mutagenic or carcinogenic effect. Clinical data are generally negative for irritation and sensitization, although some anaphylactoid reactions have been seen in studies of intravenous drugs in which PEG-35 Castor Oil was used as the vehicle. Because the maximum concentration used in animal sensitization studies was 50% for PEG Castor Oils and 100% for PEG Hydrogenated Castor Oils, it was concluded that PEG Castor Oils are safe for use in cosmetic formulations up to a concentration of 50% and that PEG Hydrogenated Castor Oils are safe as used in cosmetic formulations.t's a non-ionic surfactant that behaves as a foam booster and solubilizer of oils in water based products. (Unlike some other solubilizers, it won't suppress foam. Yay!) It can be used in the heated phase or the cool down phase of a product at up to 100%. Castor Oil Ethoxylates have many uses, primarily as nonionic surfactants in various formulations both, industrial & domestic. These are also used as cleaning agents, antistatic agents, dispersants or emulsifiers, defoamers, softeners in textile formulations. Also these are used as emulsifiers, solubalizers in cosmetics , health care & agrochemical formulations. Castor oil ethoxylates are a type of nonionic vegetable oil ethoxylate based on castor oil which is composed of traditional fatty acids like stearic acid but also the unique ricinoleic acid.The ethoxylates act as the emulsifier, solubilizers, anti-static agents, and lubricants in various market segments including home care, personal care, and agrochemicals.

PEG 6000 (POWDER)
PEG 6000 Powder Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder; /ˌpɒliˈɛθəlˌiːn ˈɡlaɪˌkɒl, -ˌkɔːl/) is a polyether compound with many applications, from industrial manufacturing to medicine. PEG 6000 powder is also known as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or polyoxyethylene (POE), depending on its molecular weight. The structure of PEG 6000 powder is commonly expressed as H−(O−CH2−CH2)n−OH. Uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder Medical uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) Main article: Macrogol PEG 6000 powder is the basis of a number of laxatives.[4] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 6000 powder is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[5] The possibility that PEG 6000 powder could be used to fuse axons is being explored by researchers studying peripheral nerve and spinal cord injury.[4] Chemical uses of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG 6000 powder in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG 6000 powder is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[6] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[7] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[8] Since PEG 6000 powder is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres). It also is unlikely to have specific interactions with biological chemicals. These properties make PEG 6000 powder one of the most useful molecules for applying osmotic pressure in biochemistry and biomembranes experiments, in particular when using the osmotic stress technique. Polyethylene glycol is also commonly used as a polar stationary phase for gas chromatography, as well as a heat transfer fluid in electronic testers. PEG 6000 powder has also been used to preserve objects that have been salvaged from underwater, as was the case with the warship Vasa in Stockholm,[9] and similar cases. It replaces water in wooden objects, making the wood dimensionally stable and preventing warping or shrinking of the wood when it dries.[4] In addition, PEG 6000 powder is used when working with green wood as a stabilizer, and to prevent shrinkage.[10] PEG 6000 powder has been used to preserve the painted colors on Terracotta Warriors unearthed at a UNESCO World Heritage site in China.[11] These painted artifacts were created during the Qin Shi Huang (first emperor of China) era. Within 15 seconds of the terra-cotta pieces being unearthed during excavations, the lacquer beneath the paint begins to curl after being exposed to the dry Xi'an air. The paint would subsequently flake off in about four minutes. The German Bavarian State Conservation Office developed a PEG 6000 powder preservative that when immediately applied to unearthed artifacts has aided in preserving the colors painted on the pieces of clay soldiers.[12] PEG 6000 powder is often used (as an internal calibration compound) in mass spectrometry experiments, with its characteristic fragmentation pattern allowing accurate and reproducible tuning. PEG 6000 powder derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 6000 powder has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers used to create some polymersomes.[13] PEG 6000 powder has also been used as a propellent on the UGM-133M Trident II Missile, in service with the United States Air Force.[14] Biological uses PEG 6000 powder is commonly used as a crowding agent in in vitro assays to mimic highly crowded cellular conditions.[6] PEG 6000 powder is commonly used as a precipitant for plasmid DNA isolation and protein crystallization. X-ray diffraction of protein crystals can reveal the atomic structure of the proteins. PEG 6000 powder is used to fuse two different types of cells, most often B-cells and myelomas in order to create hybridomas. Polymer segments derived from PEG 6000 powder polyols impart flexibility to polyurethanes for applications such as elastomeric fibers (spandex) and foam cushions. In microbiology, PEG 6000 powder precipitation is used to concentrate viruses. PEG 6000 powder is also used to induce complete fusion (mixing of both inner and outer leaflets) in liposomes reconstituted in vitro. Gene therapy vectors (such as viruses) can be PEG 6000 powder-coated to shield them from inactivation by the immune system and to de-target them from organs where they may build up and have a toxic effect.[15] The size of the PEG 6000 powder polymer has been shown to be important, with larger polymers achieving the best immune protection. PEG 6000 powder is a component of stable nucleic acid lipid particles (SNALPs) used to package siRNA for use in vivo.[16][17] In blood banking, PEG 6000 powder is used as a potentiator to enhance detection of antigens and antibodies.[4][18] When working with phenol in a laboratory situation, PEG 6000 powder 300 can be used on phenol skin burns to deactivate any residual phenol (some references are required). In biophysics, polyethylene glycols are the molecules of choice for the functioning ion channels diameter studies, because in aqueous solutions they have a spherical shape and can block ion channel conductance.[19][20] Commercial uses PEG 6000 powder is the basis of many skin creams (as cetomacrogol) and personal lubricants (frequently combined with glycerin). PEG 6000 powder is used in a number of toothpastes[4] as a dispersant. In this application, it binds water and helps keep xanthan gum uniformly distributed throughout the toothpaste. PEG 6000 powder is also under investigation for use in body armor, and in tattoos to monitor diabetes.[21][22] In low-molecular-weight formulations (e.g. PEG 6000 powder 400), it is used in Hewlett-Packard designjet printers as an ink solvent and lubricant for the print heads. PEG 6000 powder is also used as an anti-foaming agent in food and drinks[23] – its INS number is 1521[24] or E1521 in the EU.[25] Industrial uses A nitrate ester-plasticized polyethylene glycol (NEPE-75) is used in Trident II submarine-launched ballistic missile solid rocket fuel.[26] Dimethyl ethers of PEG 6000 powder are the key ingredient of Selexol, a solvent used by coal-burning, integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants to remove carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from the gas waste stream. PEG 6000 powder has been used as the gate insulator in an electric double-layer transistor to induce superconductivity in an insulator.[27] PEG 6000 powder is also used as a polymer host for solid polymer electrolytes. Although not yet in commercial production, many groups around the globe are engaged in research on solid polymer electrolytes involving PEG 6000 powder, with the aim of improving their properties, and in permitting their use in batteries, electro-chromic display systems, and other products in the future. PEG 6000 powder is injected into industrial processes to reduce foaming in separation equipment. PEG 6000 powder is used as a binder in the preparation of technical ceramics.[28] Recreational uses PEG 6000 powder is used to extend the size and durability of very large soap bubbles. PEG 6000 powder is the main ingredient in many personal lubricants. Health effects PEG 6000 powder is considered biologically inert and safe by the FDA. However, a growing body of evidence shows the existence of anti PEG 6000 powder antibodies in approximately 72% of the population based on plasma samples from 1990–1999.[medical citation needed] The FDA has been asked to investigate the possible effects of PEG 6000 powder in laxatives for children.[29] Due to its ubiquity in a multitude of products and the large percentage of the population with antibodies to PEG 6000 powder, hypersensitive reactions to PEG 6000 powder are an increasing concern.[medical citation needed] Allergy to PEG 6000 powder is usually discovered after a person has been diagnosed with an allergy to an increasing number of seemingly unrelated products, including processed foods, cosmetics, drugs, and other substances that contain PEG 6000 powder or were manufactured with PEG 6000 powder.[30] When PEG 6000 powder is chemically attached to therapeutic molecules (such as protein drugs or nanoparticles), it can sometimes be antigenic, stimulating an anti-PEG 6000 powder antibody response in some patients. This effect has only been shown for a few of the many available PEG 6000 powderylated therapeutics, but it has significant effects on clinical outcomes of affected patients.[31] Other than these few instances where patients have anti-PEG 6000 powder immune responses, it is generally considered to be a safe component of drug formulations. Available forms and nomenclature PEG 6000 powder, PEO, and POE refer to an oligomer or polymer of ethylene oxide. The three names are chemically synonymous, but historically PEG 6000 powder is preferred in the biomedical field, whereas PEO is more prevalent in the field of polymer chemistry. Because different applications require different polymer chain lengths, PEG 6000 powder has tended to refer to oligomers and polymers with a molecular mass below 20,000 g/mol, PEO to polymers with a molecular mass above 20,000 g/mol, and POE to a polymer of any molecular mass.[32] PEG 6000 powders are prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and are commercially available over a wide range of molecular weights from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol.[33] PEG 6000 powder and PEO are liquids or low-melting solids, depending on their molecular weights. While PEG 6000 powder and PEO with different molecular weights find use in different applications, and have different physical properties (e.g. viscosity) due to chain length effects, their chemical properties are nearly identical. Different forms of PEG 6000 powder are also available, depending on the initiator used for the polymerization process – the most common initiator is a monofunctional methyl ether PEG 6000 powder, or methoxypoly(ethylene glycol), abbreviated mPEG 6000 powder. Lower-molecular-weight PEG 6000 powders are also available as purer oligomers, referred to as monodisperse, uniform, or discrete. Very high purity PEG 6000 powder has recently been shown to be crystalline, allowing determination of a crystal structure by x-ray diffraction.[33] Since purification and separation of pure oligomers is difficult, the price for this type of quality is often 10–1000 fold that of polydisperse PEG 6000 powder. PEG 6000 powders are also available with different geometries. Branched PEG 6000 powders have three to ten PEG 6000 powder chains emanating from a central core group. Star PEG 6000 powders have 10 to 100 PEG 6000 powder chains emanating from a central core group. Comb PEG 6000 powders have multiple PEG 6000 powder chains normally grafted onto a polymer backbone. The numbers that are often included in the names of PEG 6000 powders indicate their average molecular weights (e.g. a PEG 6000 powder with n = 9 would have an average molecular weight of approximately 400 daltons, and would be labeled PEG 6000 powder 400.) Most PEG 6000 powders include molecules with a distribution of molecular weights (i.e. they are polydisperse). The size distribution can be characterized statistically by its weight average molecular weight (Mw) and its number average molecular weight (Mn), the ratio of which is called the polydispersity index (Mw/Mn). Mw and Mn can be measured by mass spectrometry. PEG 6000 powderylation is the act of covalently coupling a PEG 6000 powder structure to another larger molecule, for example, a therapeutic protein, which is then referred to as a PEG 6000 powderylated protein. PEG 6000 powderylated interferon alfa-2a or −2b are commonly used injectable treatments for hepatitis C infection. PEG 6000 powder is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, and is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. It is coupled to hydrophobic molecules to produce non-ionic surfactants.[34] PEG 6000 powders potentially contain toxic impurities, such as ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane.[35] Ethylene Glycol and its ethers are nephrotoxic if applied to damaged skin.[36] Polyethylene oxide (PEO, Mw 4 kDa) nanometric crystallites (4 nm) Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) and related polymers (PEG 6000 powder phospholipid constructs) are often sonicated when used in biomedical applications. However, as reported by Murali et al., PEG 6000 powder is very sensitive to sonolytic degradation and PEG 6000 powder degradation products can be toxic to mammalian cells. It is, thus, imperative to assess potential PEG 6000 powder degradation to ensure that the final material does not contain undocumented contaminants that can introduce artifacts into experimental results.[37] PEG 6000 powders and methoxypolyethylene glycols are manufactured by Dow Chemical under the tradename Carbowax for industrial use, and Carbowax Sentry for food and pharmaceutical use. They vary in consistency from liquid to solid, depending on the molecular weight, as indicated by a number following the name. They are used commercially in numerous applications, including as surfactants, in foods, in cosmetics, in pharmaceutics, in biomedicine, as dispersing agents, as solvents, in ointments, in suppository bases, as tablet excipients, and as laxatives. Some specific groups are lauromacrogols, nonoxynols, octoxynols, and poloxamers. Macrogol, used as a laxative, is a form of polyethylene glycol. The name may be followed by a number which represents the average molecular weight. Production of Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) Polyethylene glycol 400, pharmaceutical quality Polyethylene glycol 4000, pharmaceutical quality The production of polyethylene glycol was first reported in 1859. Both A. V. Lourenço and Charles Adolphe Wurtz independently isolated products that were polyethylene glycols.[38] Polyethylene glycol is produced by the interaction of ethylene oxide with water, ethylene glycol, or ethylene glycol oligomers.[39] The reaction is catalyzed by acidic or basic catalysts. Ethylene glycol and its oligomers are preferable as a starting material instead of water, because they allow the creation of polymers with a low polydispersity (narrow molecular weight distribution). Polymer chain length depends on the ratio of reactants. HOCH2CH2OH + n(CH2CH2O) → HO(CH2CH2O)n+1H Depending on the catalyst type, the mechanism of polymerization can be cationic or anionic. The anionic mechanism is preferable because it allows one to obtain PEG 6000 powder with a low polydispersity. Polymerization of ethylene oxide is an exothermic process. Overheating or contaminating ethylene oxide with catalysts such as alkalis or metal oxides can lead to runaway polymerization, which can end in an explosion after a few hours. Polyethylene oxide, or high-molecular weight polyethylene glycol, is synthesized by suspension polymerization. It is necessary to hold the growing polymer chain in solution in the course of the polycondensation process. The reaction is catalyzed by magnesium-, aluminium-, or calcium-organoelement compounds. To prevent coagulation of polymer chains from solution, chelating additives such as dimethylglyoxime are used. Alkaline catalysts such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH), or sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) are used to prepare low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) is a versatile polyether being utilized in various applications, in particular in medicine. Polyethylene oxide (PEO) is another name for PEG 6000 powder. Typically, ethylene oxide macromolecules (Fig. 18.9) with molecular weights less than 20,000 g/mol are called PEG 6000 powder, while those having values above 20,000 g/mol are named PEO. It is reported that PEG 6000 powder is soluble in water, ethanol, acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromethane, while it is insoluble in diethyl ether and hexane. PEG 6000 powder is available in different structures such as branched, star, and comb-like macromolecules. PEG 6000 powderylation is an attractive process in which PEG 6000 powder is bonded to another molecule, which is promising in therapeutic methods. PEG 6000 powder can hinder the protein adsorption which is essential in drug delivery to minimize the protein corona formation [29]. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) is a hydrophilic polymer of ethylene oxide. The non-immunogenic, biocompatible and flexible nature of PEG 6000 powder makes it a suitable synthetic dressing material for wound healing. The low toxic PEG 6000 powder macromers are well bonded with growth factor like EGF and can be delivered at the wound site [98]. The mechanical stability of PEG 6000 powder can be enhanced by blending PEG 6000 powder with chitosan and PLGA. Blending also increases thermal stability and crystallinity of the particular polymer [99]. Such PEG 6000 powder-based dressings have been widely used to treat a diabetic wound by promoting and inducing growth of skin cells and collagen deposition. It also reduces scar formation [100]. The injectable hybrid hydrogel dressing system is developed from PEG 6000 powder-based hyperbranched multiacrylated co-polymer and HA in combination with adipose-derived stem cells to support the viability of cells in vitro and in vivo. It prevents wound contraction and enhances angiogenesis by acting as temporary hydrogel for wound healing purpose [101]. Hydrophilic Materials Based on Polyethylene Glycol Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) is the most relevant antifouling polymer in biomedical devices. PEG 6000 powder antifouling properties are thought to be related to surface hydration and steric hindrance effects (Chen et al., 2010). PEG 6000 powder chains linked to a material surface assume a brush-like configuration at the water/surface interface, limiting the approach to the surface by bacteria. Compression of the highly hydrated layer of PEG 6000 powder chains is unfavorable because it would involve a reduction in PEG 6000 powder chain mobility and removal of water molecules. Surface packing density and polymer chain length can be used to control PEG 6000 powder antifouling properties (Roosjen et al., 2004). PEG 6000 powder-functionalized PUs were developed by PEG 6000 powder introduction either in the polymer backbone (Corneillie et al., 1998) or polymer side chain (Francolini et al., 2019). Auto-oxidization in the presence of oxygen, metal ions, and enzymes able to oxidize PEG 6000 powder hydroxyl groups, however, may limit long-term effectiveness. Polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000 powder) is another important type of PCM for textile applications. The repeating unit in PEG 6000 powder is oxyethylene (–O–CH2–CH2–) containing hydroxyl group on either side of the chain. The melting point of PEG 6000 powder depends on its molecular weight and is proportional as the molecular weight increases. The phase-change temperature of PEG 6000 powder can be determined using DSC (Pielichowski and Flejtuch, 2002). PEG 6000 powder with degree of polymerization 1000 has phase-change temperature of 35°C, while PEG 6000 powder with degree of polymerization 20,000 has melting temperature of 63°C (Craig and Newton, 1991; Hopp et al., 2000). Jiang et al. (2016) synthesized a dual-functional magnetic microcapsules containing a PCM core and an organo-silica shell for the electromagnetic shielding and thermal regulating applications. Fig. 20.6 shows the resulting DSC curves where the areas under the peaks indicate the amount of latent heat contained using different organosilanes/PEG 6000 powder weight ratios. PEG 6000 powder is the basis of a number of laxatives.[3] Whole bowel irrigation with polyethylene glycol and added electrolytes is used for bowel preparation before surgery or colonoscopy. PEG 6000 powder is also used as an excipient in many pharmaceutical products. When attached to various protein medications, polyethylene glycol allows a slowed clearance of the carried protein from the blood.[4] The possibility that PEG 6000 powder could be used to fuse nerve cells is being explored by researchers studying spinal cord injury.[3] Chemical uses The remains of the 16th century carrack Mary Rose undergoing conservation treatment with PEG 6000 powder in the 1980s Terra cotta warrior, showing traces of original color Because PEG 6000 powder is a hydrophilic molecule, it has been used to passivate microscope glass slides for avoiding non-specific sticking of proteins in single-molecule fluorescence studies.[5] Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity and is used in a variety of products.[6] The polymer is used as a lubricating coating for various surfaces in aqueous and non-aqueous environments.[7] Since PEG is a flexible, water-soluble polymer, it can be used to create very high osmotic pressures (on the order of tens of atmospheres).

It replaces water in wooden objects, making the wood dimensionally stable and preventing warping or shrinking of the wood when it dries.[3] In addition, PEG 6000 powder is used when working with green wood as a stabilizer, and to prevent shrinkage.[9] PEG has been used to preserve the painted colors on Terracotta Warriors unearthed at a UNESCO World Heritage site in China.[10] These painted artifacts were created during the Qin Shi Huang Di dynasty (first emperor of China). Within 15 seconds of the terra-cotta pieces being unearthed during excavations, the lacquer beneath the paint begins to curl after being exposed to the dry Xian air. The paint would subsequently flake off in about four minutes. The German Bavarian State Conservation Office developed a PEG 6000 powder preservative that when immediately applied to unearthed artifacts has aided in preserving the colors painted on the pieces of clay soldiers.[11] PEG 6000 powder is often used (as an internal calibration compound) in mass spectrometry experiments, with its characteristic fragmentation pattern allowing accurate and reproducible tuning. PEG 6000 powder derivatives, such as narrow range ethoxylates, are used as surfactants. PEG 6000 powder is a polyol and can be reacted with an isocyanate to make polyurethane. PEG 6000 powder has been used as the hydrophilic block of amphiphilic block copolymers used to create some polymersomes.[12] Biological uses PEG 6000 powder is commonly used as a crowding agent in in vitro assays to mimic highly crowded cellular conditions. PEG 6000 powder is commonly used as a precipitant for plasmid DNA isolation and protein crystallization. X-ray diffraction of protein crystals can reveal the atomic structure of the proteins. PEG is used to fuse two different types of cells, most often B-cells and myelomas in order to create hybridomas. César Milstein and Georges J. F. Köhler originated this technique, which they used for antibody production, winning a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1984.[3] Polymer segments derived from PEG polyols impart flexibility to polyurethanes for applications such as elastomeric fibers (spandex) and foam cushions. In microbiology, PEG 6000 powder precipitation is used to concentrate viruses. PEG is also used to induce complete fusion (mixing of both inner and outer leaflets) in liposomes reconstituted in vitro. Gene therapy vectors (such as viruses) can be PEG-coated to shield them from inactivation by the immune system and to de-target them from organs where they may build up and have a toxic effect.[13] The size of the PEG polymer has been shown to be important, with larger polymers achieving the best immune protection. PEG is a component of stable nucleic acid lipid particles (SNALPs) used to package siRNA for use in vivo. In blood banking, PEG is used as a potentiator to enhance detection of antigens and antibodies.[3][16] When working with phenol in a laboratory situation, PEG 300 can be used on phenol skin burns to deactivate any residual phenol. In biophysics, polyethylene glycols are the molecules of choice for the functioning ion channels diameter studies, because in aqueous solutions they have a spherical shape and can block ion channel conductance. What is Polyethyleneglycol? Polyethyleneglycol, or PEG 6000 powder for short, is a polyether consisting of a (-O-CH2-CH2-) backbone that is commonly used in many fields of academic research, industrial processing and commercial applications. PEG 6000 powders can also commonly be referred to as polyoxyethylene (POE) and polyethyleneoxide (PEO), but regardless of the name that is used, the simple structure of PEG 6000 powders (which consists of solely carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, see image below) affords safe compounds that are used throughout everyday life. Additionally, it is this simple structure that separates PEG 6000 powders from similar compounds like propylene glycol and polypropyleneglycol. The two aforementioned compounds (polyethyleneglycol vs. propylene glycol) are derivatives of propylene oxide, which, when polymerized, bestows a completely different set of physical characteristics to the compound as compared to PEG 6000 powder. The method in which PEG 6000 powders are created allows for a wide variability in their physical attributes, allowing them to be utilized by many commercial markets. By controlling a PEG 6000 powder’s size (i.e. molecular weight) and its size distribution, a wide variety of physical properties can be achieved, which sets Oxiteno’s line of PEG 6000 powder products, the 6000 powder series, apart from other name brands of polyethyleneglycols. Due to the vast number of product types offered 6000 powder products (click here for a full listing), many physical forms (liquids, pastes, solids, flakes, powder, etc.) and viscosities of PEG 6000 powders are available. It is the numerous attributes of PEG 6000 powders that allow for their inclusion in a vast array of applications, ranging from the pharmaceutical industry to cosmetic markets. While the structure of PEG 6000 powder is simple, it is this compound’s solubility in water is what makes it such a versatile additive to enhance many industrial applications. Because line of PEG 6000 powder products are non-toxic and hydrophilic (water-loving), these polymers are used in the home (i.e. to treat surfaces in cleaning agents made by cleaning chemicals manufacturers) as well as in the food production industry (to reduce the amount of foam during the processing of food products). PEG 6000 powders are generally considered to be biologically inert, making them safe to use throughout the medical and food-processing industries. What is Polyethyleneglycol Used For? Due to the variety of physical properties that can be achieved through PEG 6000 powder series, formulators in nearly all industries can benefit from this line of PEG 6000 powder products. A PEG 6000 powder’s unique ability to enhance a dye’s solubility in aqueous formulations causes it to be used throughout the textile industry as dye carriers. PEG 6000 powders are also exceptional at retaining moisture in complex formulations, as well as to an applied surface, making them excellent humectants and anti-caking agents for cosmetic chemical suppliers and coatings chemical suppliers. This unique relationship with water is further exploited by many other markets as PEG 6000 powders can help to stabilize emulsions and act as water-miscible co-solvents for aqueous formulations. The food industry uses these compounds as additives to reduce the amount of foam during food processing. Additionally, PEG 6000 powders find themselves very useful in the pharmaceutical industry due to their ability to act as rheological modifiers, thus being used as excipients. New research techniques are increasingly incorporating PEG 6000 powder compounds via the use of ‘PEG 6000 powderylation’ onto protein and peptide therapeutics, thus improving their pharmacokinetics and leading to safer and more effective drugs1-2. Many of PEG 6000 powder series meet the requirements set forth by the National Formulary (NF) guidelines for safe preparation, manufacture and use of a variety of PEG 6000 powder compounds that can be used as excipients, botanicals and other similar products. Is Polyethyleneglycol Safe? PEG 6000 powders are generally considered to be a biologically inert substance, meaning that this class of oligomers and polymers are recognized to be safe for use in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. So, is polyethyleneglycol toxic? Due to the PEG 6000 powder’s structure and its water solubility, these compounds are generally considered to be non-toxic, as studies of demonstrated their safety for use within the field of drug delivery1-2, for application to the skin in cosmetics3 and as additives in the food and vitamin processing industry4. Where applicable, line of PEG 6000 powders, 6000 powder, adhere to the guidelines for the manufacturing set forth by the National Formulary (NF). Having initially been established by the U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act of 1938, these guidelines are currently recognized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These manufacturing and production guidelines are annually reviewed, requiring to not only adhere to these strict standards, but maintain constant surveillance over the preparation of these non-toxic additives. Additionally, many of PEG 6000 powder products that are used in agricultural applications are safe for the environment and are on the Environmental Protection Agencies’ (EPA) inert ingredient list, meeting the requirements set forth in 40 CFR 180.910 and 40 CFR 180.930. This makes PEG 6000 powders attractive for agrochemical companies.
