Poly(ethylene Glycol) (PEG)
Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is an oligomer or polymer of
ethylene glycol (ethane-1,2-diol);
It is a synthetic, hydrophilic, biocompatible polymer;
Commercially known as Carbowax (for industrial use) and
Carbowax Sentry (for food and pharmaceutical use);
Depending on its molecular weight PEG is also known
as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or polyoxyethylene (POE).
The structure of PEG is commonly expressed as
H−(O−CH2−CH2)n−OH.
IUPAC Name
poly(oxyethylene) {structure-based}
