Glycerol ethoxylated propoxylated

Glycerol ethoxylated propoxylated , also known as Glycerol polyethylene-propylene glycol ether, is a block copolymer polyol built on a glycerol backbone. It features alternating ethylene oxide and propylene oxide chains and is identified by CAS 9082-00-2 .

This versatile chemical functions as a non-ionic surfactant, emulsifier, and humectant across personal care, cleaning, and industrial formulations. In personal care, it acts as an emulsifier and moisturizing agent in various creams, lotions, and hair conditioners.

The compound helps stabilize oil-water systems while supporting skin hydration. Industrial and household cleaning formulations use it to control foam levels and improve soil dispersion in detergents and hard-surface cleaners.

Textile and leather processors incorporate it as a softening and lubricating additive during fiber finishing and hide treatment. In coatings and adhesive systems, it functions as a reactive polyol component or rheology modifier.

These applications influence viscosity and film-forming behavior across diverse manufacturing sectors. Glycerol ethoxylated propoxylated is typically supplied as a clear to slightly hazy viscous liquid for easy handling.

Grades vary by ethylene oxide/propylene oxide ratio and molecular weight, which directly determines the HLB value and application fit. Buyers should confirm the specific EO/PO ratio when sourcing for their specific needs.

Technical and industrial grades are standard for most heavy-duty applications. Specialty grades tailored to cosmetic formulation requirements are also commercially available to meet specific industry demands.
