    Glycereth-26 CAS 31694-55-0

    Glycereth-26, technically identified as PEG-26 Glyceryl Ether or Ethoxylated Glycerin, is a nonionic polyether polyol synthesized through the ethoxylation of glycerol. This substance functions as a hydrophilic humectant and lubricant, utilizing its ether structure to provide moisture retention and viscosity modification in industrial humectant formulations and cosmetic base manufacturing. It is typically applied in the production of emulsions, skin care bases, and surfactant systems where stable solubility and smooth texture are required. We ensure bulk supply with competitive factory pricing for industrial clients. Our inventory is managed to support customized specifications, and every shipment is accompanied by complete MSDS, TDS, COA documentation.

    Industrial sector:As a lubricant or solubilizer, used in coatings, inks, etc.

    Storage conditions

    Storage Conditions:
    Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and high temperatures.
    Keep away from fire sources and oxidants to avoid potential chemical reactions.
    Shelf Life: 24 months (when stored under standard conditions).

    ‌‌Safety precautions

    Ventilation requirements: Operate in a fume hood or a well-ventilated environment to avoid inhaling vapor or dust.
    Avoid ignition sources: Keep away from open flames and high heat. Fire-fighting equipment (such as carbon dioxide and dry powder fire extinguishers) must be equipped at the operation site. Smoking is prohibited.
    Prevent splashing: When pouring or transferring, operate slowly to avoid splashing the liquid onto the skin or eyes.
    Concentration control: Use according to the recommended ratio in the product manual to avoid performance degradation or safety hazards caused by overdose

    FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

    • Q:

      Is CAS 31694-55-0the specific identifier for Glycereth-26?

      A: Yes, CAS 31694-55-0 refers to the polymer formed by the ethoxylation of glycerin. Glycereth-26 specifically denotes the grade with an average ethoxylation value of 26, which falls under this registry number and is chemically distinct from other molecular weight variants like Glycereth-7 or Glycereth-12.
    • Q:

      What is the primary function of this material in industrial formulations?

      A: This product acts as a humectant and solubilizer. It is intended for use in chemical formulations to reduce water activity and improve the compatibility of other ingredients within aqueous systems, rather than serving as a finished consumer product.
