CAS 27252-75-1

Polyethylene glycol octyl ether

Description:

Polyethylene glycol octyl ether, with the CAS number 27252-75-1, is a non-ionic surfactant and a member of the polyethylene glycol (PEG) family. It is characterized by its hydrophilic polyethylene glycol backbone and a hydrophobic octyl group, which imparts amphiphilic properties, making it effective in various applications. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its molecular weight and formulation. It is soluble in water and organic solvents, which enhances its utility in formulations such as emulsifiers, solubilizers, and dispersants in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and industrial applications. Polyethylene glycol octyl ether exhibits low toxicity and is generally considered safe for use in personal care products. Its surfactant properties allow it to reduce surface tension, facilitating the mixing of oil and water phases. Additionally, it can enhance the stability of emulsions and improve the bioavailability of active ingredients in formulations. Overall, its unique structure and properties make it a versatile ingredient in various chemical and industrial processes.

n-Octylpolyoxyethylene

CAS: 27252-75-1

n-Octylpolyoxyethylene (n-OPEO) is a synthetic surfactant that is used as an antimicrobial agent. It has been shown to be effective against a wide variety of bacteria, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Staphylococcus aureus. The mechanism by which n-OPEO exerts its antibacterial efficacy is not yet fully understood. It may inhibit the growth of bacteria by disrupting their cell membranes, or it may interfere with the synthesis of proteins needed for bacterial growth.
