Polypropylene Glycol PPG-2000 is a high-purity, low-toxicity polymer with excellent solubility, stability, and moderate viscosity. As a versatile raw material, it functions as a moisturizer, emollient, and solubilizer in cosmetics (skincare, haircare) and personal care products. In industrial fields, it enhances lubricity in lubricants, improves adhesion in adhesives, and boosts stability in coatings/inks. It also meets food and pharmaceutical standards, serving as a safe additive in food processing and a biocompatible component in drug delivery or medical devices. Available in industrial, cosmetic, food, and pharma grades, PPG-2000 supports bulk supply and customizable packaging, catering to diverse commercial and manufacturing needs.
Product Advantage
Ultra-High Purity with Strict Quality Control
PPG-2000 achieves a purity level of ≥99.5%, verified by ISO 9001 and GMP certifications. Our advanced distillation process removes impurities (moisture content ≤0.1%, ash content ≤0.01%), ensuring consistent performance in sensitive applications like pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. This high purity minimizes product degradation risks, making it reliable for long-term formulation use.
Multi-Grade Versatility for Diverse Industries
We offer four specialized grades (industrial, cosmetic, food, pharmaceutical) tailored to industry standards. Cosmetic-grade PPG-2000 meets ECOCERT requirements for skincare; pharmaceutical-grade complies with USP/NF standards for drug delivery. This versatility eliminates the need for buyers to source from multiple suppliers, streamlining procurement.
Superior Stability & Functional Performance
PPG-2000 maintains stable viscosity (500-700 cSt at 25°C) and chemical inertness across a wide temperature range (-20°C to 120°C). It acts as an efficient solubilizer (dissolving both oil and water-based ingredients) and emollient, reducing skin irritation rates by 30% compared to lower-molecular-weight glycols. In lubricants, it enhances anti-wear properties by 25%.
Low Toxicity & Eco-Friendly Profile
Classified as "Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS)" by the FDA, PPG-2000 has an LD50 >5000 mg/kg (oral, rat), ensuring safety for food additives and personal care. Our production process reduces carbon emissions by 18% via energy-saving equipment, aligning with global environmental regulations (REACH, RoHS compliant), appealing to eco-conscious buyers.
Bulk Supply Capability & Customization
With a monthly production capacity of 500 tons, we guarantee on-time delivery (98% order fulfillment rate within 7 days) for bulk orders (100L to 2000L drums). We also offer customization: adjust viscosity (±50 cSt) and packaging (flexible totes, small bottles) to match specific manufacturing needs, supported by 24/7 technical consultation.

Product Uses
Cosmetics & Personal Care
As a key ingredient in skincare (moisturizers, lotions) and haircare (shampoos, conditioners), PPG-2000 acts as a moisturizer and emollient. It locks in skin/hair moisture, reduces dryness, and improves product spreadability—enhancing user experience without causing irritation, ideal for sensitive formulations.
Industrial Lubricants & Adhesives
In industrial lubricants (metalworking fluids, automotive lubricants), PPG-2000 boosts lubricity and anti-wear performance, extending equipment life. It also improves adhesion and flexibility in adhesives/sealants, ensuring strong, durable bonds for construction and electronic component assembly.
Pharmaceuticals & Medical Devices
Pharmaceutical-grade PPG-2000 serves as a excipient in oral medications and drug delivery systems (creams, ointments). It enhances drug solubility and stability, while its biocompatibility makes it safe for use in medical devices like wound dressings and catheter coatings.
Food Processing
FDA-approved food-grade PPG-2000 works as a processing aid and stabilizer. It prevents ingredient separation in food additives (flavorings, colorants) and improves texture in baked goods, ensuring consistent quality while meeting strict food safety standards.
Coatings, Inks & Textiles
In coatings/inks, PPG-2000 enhances flowability and gloss, reducing drying time and improving film adhesion. For textiles, it acts as a softener and anti-static agent, making fabrics smoother, more breathable, and less prone to static buildup during manufacturing and use.
Product Operate Guide
Preparation: Store PPG-2000 in a cool, dry, sealed container (avoid direct sunlight/extreme temps). Stir gently before use to ensure uniformity.
Dosage: Add 2-10% (adjust per needs) to formulations. For cosmetics/skincare: mix with oils/serums at 25-40°C; for industrial lubricants: blend with base oils under stirring.
Safety: Wear gloves during handling. Rinse with water if in contact with eyes. Keep away from children.
FAQ
Q: Is PPG-2000 safe for use in skincare products?
A: Yes. Cosmetic-grade PPG-2000 is low-toxic, non-irritating, and meets ECOCERT standards. It's widely used as a moisturizer, with an LD50 >5000 mg/kg ensuring skin safety.
Q: What's the difference between PPG-2000 and other PPG grades (e.g., PPG-1000)?
A: The main difference is molecular weight—PPG-2000 has higher viscosity (500-700 cSt at 25°C) than PPG-1000, making it more suitable for thick formulations like creams or lubricants.
Q: How should I store PPG-2000 to maintain its quality?
A: Store it in a sealed, cool (15-25°C), dry container away from direct sunlight and heat. Avoid moisture ingress, as it may affect viscosity and stability.
Q: Can I get a small sample of PPG-2000 before placing a bulk order?
A: Absolutely. We offer 100-500mL samples (free for qualified buyers) to test compatibility with your formulations. Contact our team to request samples.
