Application

Poly(propylene glycol)-block-poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol) serves a versatile role in the pharmaceutical and therapeutic fields due to its unique composition as a nonionic polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymer. The polyoxyethylene segments are hydrophilic while the polyoxypropylene segments are hydrophobic, allowing it to function effectively as an emulsifying or solubilizing agent. This product is primarily used in various formulations to stabilize and maintain the clarity of elixirs and syrups, contribute to fat emulsions, and act as a wetting agent in applications such as ointments, suppository bases, gels, and tablet coatings. Additionally, it finds therapeutic applications as a wetting agent and stool lubricant, is included in eye-drop formulations, and assists in the treatment of kidney stones and skin wounds. Its adaptability extends to its use in drug-delivery systems and as a crucial component in contact lens care solutions.
