Properties
① Exterior
As the average molecular weight is increased, the exterior changes from a fluid to a paste or wax-type solid. it is possible to manufacture white flake-type products in high molecular weight from 3,000.
② Solubility & compatibility
As all the liquid, semi-solid and flake products are soluble in water. So it is possible to use water as the cheapest solvent option.
In addition, it can be dissolved by most of the organic solvents except hydrocarbon. The compatibility of these organic solvents will be lowered as the molecular weight increases, however, it has a high compatibility with most medicines.
③ Hygroscopic property
The liquid-type KONION PEG has hygroscopic properties, however, in most cases, hygroscopic properties decrease as molecular weight increases, and hygroscopic properties of products with more than 1,000 of molecular weight are
largely decreased.
④ Toxicity & stimulation
It has little toxicity or stimulation. So it can be used for cosmetics or medical supplies.
⑤ Other chemical properties
As 2 -OH bases at the end of KONION PEG have the properties of class 1 alcohol, it can be made into ester or ether.
As the combination of Ether of KONION PEG is stable, it will never hydrolyze.
It is possible to be stored for a long time as it does not oxidize and prevents the reproduction of fungi or bacteria.
Its water solubility is not influenced by electrolytes, hard water or other salts.
It can be used together with class 4 ammonium salts without reducing its disinfectant properties.
Applications
As KONION PEG has excellent chemical and physical properties, it is widely used in diverse industries as an intermediary material for manufacturing surfactants, plasticizers and lubricants.
① Medical supplies
It has good solubility in water and has excellent compatibility with other organic materials, and as it is not toxic nor stimulates skin, it is possible to use KONION PEG-300, 400, 1000 and 1540 for the base material of ointments,
suppositories, injections, solvents and tablet binding agents.
② Cosmetics
As it is neutral, odorless, water soluble and not stimulus, it is used as an intermediary material in the cosmetics industry.
KONION PEG-400~PEG-6000 are used depending on purposes such as creams, lotions, toothpastes, beauty soaps and cosmetics.
③ Rubber
It is used as a parting agent for rubber foam or latex foam products. It is also used as AIR BAG lubricants that are essential for the tire manufacturing business, and lubricants for extrusion molding.
④ Textile industry
It is widely used in the textile industry as an intermediary material to a conditioner, antistatic agent, detergent, disperser and emulsifier.
⑤ Paper manufacture industry
As it has low volatility, It is suitable as a paper conditioner(PEG-200~400) and as a lubricant for calendaring processes(PEG-1,000~2,000).
⑥ Surfactant
Fatty acid mono or di-esters of KONION PEG are used as an emulsifier, disperser, detergent, anti-foaming agent and lubricant in the textile, oil and pesticide industries.
Besides, it is possible to manufacture important compounds such as ether, amine, acetal and other intermediary materials by reacting with various chemical substances.
⑦ Metalworking industry
In the metalworking industry, it is used as a component of abrasives, a binding agent for the powder metallurgy process, a grease and lubricant.
⑧ Resin industry
It is used as a resin antistatic agent and resin modifier, and flexible plasticizer of synthetic leather and synthetic resins.
⑨ Ink
It is possible to improve the performance of ink by using it to control the hygroscopic properties and viscosity of ink by mixing it to be used as a printing, stencil, stamp or mimeograph ink.
⑩ Lumber
As it has a property of replacing the moisture content inside lumber, it is possible to increase the morphostasis of lumber by preventing contraction when soaking it in the water solution of KONION PEG-1000, or applying it to a
wooden surface.
