Applications of Polyglykol 200
Polyglykol 200 is used in different liquid pharmaceutical preparations such as drops or fillings for gelatin capsules.
Polyglykol 200 is also used as carrier for sodium stearate and sodium aluminium hydroxylactate in deodorants, perfume and insect-repellent sticks.
Polyglykol 200 is an outstanding solubilizer for hexaclorophene, dimethyl phthalate azulene, etc.
Polyglykol 200 is also used in toothpastes where it improves consistency and storage stability.
Polyglykol 200 acts as a moisturizer in antiperspirants, shampoos and liquid soaps, hair styling products and bar soap.
Polyglykol 200 can also be used in bath oils and foam baths to assist the solubilizing action of the active substances for perfume oils
Storage of Polyglykol 200
PEG 200 is stable for 2 years when stored in the original sealed containers in a cool, dry place.
Furthermore the containers should not be exposed to direct sun light.
Ambient temperatures for long term storage are preferably between 10°C and 25°C and between 0°C and 30°C as maximum.
Storage at higher temperatures is possible only for a short time and should be kept below the solidification point of the products.
Polyglykol 200 is essential to ensure storage in a dry place because liquid PEG are hygroscopic.
Each time the containers are opened, they should be resealed to make them airtight.
Even with sealed laboratory containers it is impossible to prevent atmospheric oxygen and moisture acting on PEG 200 USP owing to frequent opening.
We therefore recommend that laboratory samples should also not be stored longer than 2 years.
The most suitable material for storage tanks is stainless steel, pure aluminium, rubber-or polyethylenelined containers and storage tanks made from glass-fibre-reinforced polyester (GRP). The tank should be ventilated by means of a silica gel dryer.
Conventional steel tanks are of limited suitability because after prolonged storage the product may become discoloured owing to traces of iron.
The recommended method of storing PEG 200 USP is in stainless steel or aluminium containers fitted with an external, heating coil.
The storage temperature should not exceed 70°C, and it is advisable to thoroughly mix the contents of the storage container with a dry nitrogen stream or a circulating pump.
HANDLING AND STORAGE of Polyglykol 200
