Application

Polyethylene oxide serves as a versatile polymer in a range of pharmaceutical and industrial applications due to its high molecular weight and solubility properties. Known for being an addition polymer of ethylene oxide, polyethylene oxide exhibits stable, hydrophilic, and non-irritant characteristics, making it suitable for diverse uses. It functions effectively in controlled-release systems, serving as a stabilizing agent in emulsions, and as a solvent in soft gelatin capsules, despite occasional compatibility issues. In solid dosage forms, polyethylene oxide enhances tablet binder effectiveness and imparts plasticity, though it may extend disintegration times when used in high concentrations. Additionally, it acts as a plasticizer in film-coating applications, improving water permeability. Its utility extends to enhancing the solubility of poorly soluble compounds, and in certain formulations, polyethylene oxide can improve the bioavailability of active pharmaceutical ingredients.
