| Applications |
CARBOWAX SENTRY PEGs are used for 3 main purposes in the pharmaceutical industry:
(1) As excipient
- bases in ointments and suppositories.
- binders and coatings in tableting.
- drug solubiliser / carriers in liquid preparations (syrups and elixirs) and gelatine capsules.
- granulation aid
(2) As active ingredient
- PEG laxatives / colonic lavage
- ophthalmic solutions at 0.2 – 1%
(3) Particularly for CARBOWAX SENTRY MPEGs, as chemical intermediate, in the synthesis of pharmaceutical actives
- esterification
- carbonate and carbamate formation
- PEG / protein conjugates (PEGylation).

- OPTIM Synthetic Glycerine 99.7% USP /EP
-
An excellent feedstock for high-class pharmaceutical products
Its main use is as an excipient or inactive ingredient in pharmaceutical formulations.
OPTIM™ Synthetic Glycerine has a distinctively high, consistent purity and stability, making it a versatile ingredient in highly sensitive pharma applications. It also serves as a solvent for active ingredients, an antimicrobial preservative, a plasticizer, a viscosity-increasing agent, an emollient, a humectant and a sweetening agent in different concentrations up to 50%.
OPTIM™ Synthetic Glycerine, however, has a proven track record for absence of microbiological impurities and for long-term stability. OPTIM™ Synthetic Glycerine also has exceptional sensory properties, i.e. virtually no odour and a consistently sweet taste.
OPTIM™ Synthetic Glycerine is manufactured according to current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) based on the IPEC-PQG Good Manufacturing Practices Guide for Pharmaceutical Excipients 2006.
OPTIM™ Synthetic Glycerine is classified by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) and complies with the compendial specifications in USP and EP.
OPTIM™ Synthetic Glycerine is listed in the U.S. FDA’s inactive ingredients database for use in:
- Dental pastes
- Inhalations
- Nasal and opthalmic preparations
- Suspensions and tabletes
- Topical
- Buccal preparations
- Injections
- Oral capsules
- Otic
- Transdermal and vaginal preparations

- Polypropylene Glycol- PPG
-
Polypropylene glycols (PPGs) are:
- 100% active liquids
- compatible with a wide range of processes
- inert and stable foam control agents
- low in toxicity
- non-corrosive
- nonionic
- pH stable
- water insoluble with low surface tension, so they spread quickly across a liquid surface
- PPG 2000 is widely used as an antifoam agent or defoamer in fermentation process. Eg. Penicillin G.
- PPGs are approved under certain FDA regulations for indirect food use.
- PPG 2000 can also be useful in cosmetic preparations as a substitute or partial replacement for castor oil , mineral oil or higher priced synthetics.
- PPG is used a thickener, a co-solvent and as a stabilizer in various cosmetic formulations.
