MPEG 3000

MPEG 3000 is a chemical based on Methoxy PEG-65.

 

MPEG 3000 provides lubricity and moisturizing properties to the final product in the formulations of Personal Care and Cosmetic products (For example, shaving foams and shaving gels)

MPEG 3000 is used in pressure-sensitive and thermoplastic adhesives to increase adhesion strength – while the adhesive is still wet.

MPEG 3000 maintains wet adhesion strength in isocyanate and polyester adhesives.

 

MPEG 3000 is also an intermediate raw material for producing new-generation superplasticizers (Polycarboxylate ones).

MPEG 3000 Methoxy polyethylene Glycol by Ataman Chemicals is a methoxy PEG-65-based plasticizer. 

Methoxy polyethylene Glycol MPEG 3000 possesses lubricity and humectant properties in cosmetic products including shaving gels and shaving foams.

 

MPEG 3000 maintains wet-tack strength in pressure-sensitive and thermoplastic adhesives.

MPEG 3000 is a linear, mono hydroxy-functional polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (M-PEG) entirely water-soluble. 

MPEG 3000 is esterified with methacrylic acid to yield the corresponding polyglycol mono methacrylates used to polymerize polycarboxylate superplasticizers.

MPEG 3000 is a type of Methoxy polyethylene glycol with a Molecular Weight of 3000 that provides enhanced solvency, lubricity, hygroscopicity, and slightly more hydrophobic solvent properties.  

MPEG 3000 is an essential raw material in adhesives, chemical intermediates, inks and dye carriers, lubricants, soaps, and detergents​​.

MPEG 3000 is a waxy white to slightly yellowish solid at room temperature. 
MPEG 3000 is soluble in water and solvents like acetate and methanol. 
MPEG 3000 can be considered a high molecular alcohol and, therefore, displays typical chemical reactions of alcohols.
MPEG 3000 is a linear, mono hydroxy-functional polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (M-PEG) entirely water-soluble.

Applications of MPEG 3000:

MPEG 3000 is a raw material for 3rd generation concrete superplasticizers.

MPEG 3000 is an effective component of PCE superplasticizer admixtures.

MPEG 3000 is an intermediate in synthesizing superplasticizers (concrete admixtures) and pigment dispersants.

MPEG 3000 is used as a raw material in producing polycarboxylate ether superplasticizers.

The polycarboxylic acid superplasticizer is prepared with acrylic acid, MPEG 3000, and sodium vinyl sulfonate through the esterification of acrylic acid and MPEG 3000 in the water. 

Methoxy polyethylene glycol ether with a molecular weight of 3000 g/mole is commonly used as a chemical intermediate in producing alkyd emulsions and HEUR thickeners.

MPEG 3000 is used for a wide variety of chemical reactions. 

MPEG 3000 acts as end-capping and hydrophilic components with isocyanates and polyester

When MPEG 3000 is reacted with unsaturated monomers like acrylic or methacrylic acid, esters are formed, which can be copolymerized to increase hydrophilicity and improve the dispersing properties of polymers in water. 

Methoxy polyethylene Glycol (MPEG) 3000 is used in pressure-sensitive and thermoplastic adhesives.

MPEG 3000 possesses lubricity & humectant properties and maintains wet-tack strength
