GPE-3000
Jienuo
Glycerol Random Polyether GPE-3000 (CAS 9003-11-6) is a high-performance non-ionic copolymer of glycerol, ethylene oxide, and propylene oxide. Featuring excellent water solubility, low foam, and strong compatibility with cosmetics raw materials, it acts as a reliable emulsifier, stabilizer, and surfactant. Ideal for cosmetic and skincare formulations (lotions, creams, serums), it enhances product texture, improves dispersion, and ensures long-term stability. With cosmetic-grade purity, non-toxicity, and biodegradability, it meets global safety standards. Suitable for industrial and personal care applications, it's a cost-effective choice for manufacturers seeking high-quality, versatile polyether additives.
Product Advantage
Superior Technical Stability
It maintains excellent performance with a narrow molecular weight range (3000±300) and low acid value (≤0.5 mgKOH/g), ensuring consistent quality across batches. Its high purity (≥99.0%) minimizes impurities, reducing formulation risks for manufacturers.
Low Foam & Mild Properties
As a non-ionic surfactant, it produces low foam during application—ideal for high-efficiency cleaning scenarios. It's non-irritating, making it compatible with diverse raw materials without causing corrosion or damage.
Strong Compatibility & Dispersion
It blends seamlessly with anionic, cationic, and non-ionic additives, enhancing the dispersion of solid particles or oils in formulations. This improves product uniformity and shelf-life stability.
Cost-Effective Versatility
A single product serves multiple functions (emulsifier, dispersant, stabilizer), reducing the need for multiple additives. Its 2-year shelf life (when stored properly) lowers inventory turnover costs.

Product Uses
Industrial Cleaners
Used as a low-foam emulsifier and dispersant in metal cleaning agents, it effectively removes oil stains while reducing foam overflow during high-pressure cleaning processes.
Textile Auxiliaries
Acts as a leveling agent and lubricant in textile processing, improving dye dispersion and fabric softness without affecting color fastness.
Pesticide Formulations
Enhances the stability and adhesion of pesticide emulsions, ensuring uniform distribution on crop surfaces and boosting the efficacy of active ingredients.
For general formulations: Add GPE-3000 directly to the mixture (dosage: 2-5% of total formulation weight) and stir at 40-60°C for 10-15 minutes until fully dissolved. Adjust dosage based on specific application (e.g., 3-6% for pesticide emulsions). Store the finished product in a cool, ventilated area to maintain stability.
FAQ
What is the shelf life of GPE-3000?
When stored in sealed 200kg drums/50kg plastic buckets in a dry, ventilated place, it has a 2-year shelf life.
Is GPE-3000 compatible with acidic formulations?
Yes, it has a pH value (1% aqueous solution) of 5.0-7.0, so it works well in weakly acidic to neutral systems.
Can GPE-3000 be customized?
Yes, we offer customized polyether products (e.g., different molecular weights) based on specific customer requirements.
