Brief Introduction
PEO is a water-soluble and thermoplastic nonionic linear polymer with properties such as flocculation, thickening, slow release, lubrication, dispersion, retention, and water retention. It is non-toxic and non-irritating. It is a high-polymer polyethylene oxide with molecular weights ranging from 800,000 to 8 million and is created through the polymerization of ethylene oxide.
Properties
Water-soluble thermoplastic resin.
Also soluble in various organic solvent.
Nonionic.
When dissolved, the solution shows high viscosity even at low density, making PEO an 
effective thickener.
Products with high-molecular weights have dispersing and coagulation properties.
Thermoplastics, so PEO can be used for extrusion molding, foundry molding, and 
calendaring molding.
Aqueous solution reduces friction resistance.
Forms associated molecules with chemical compounds with high polarity such as urea, acrylic resin, and phenol resin
