Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy Polyethylene Glycol 8000 (PEG 8000) in Hyderabad?
Surravi Phharma supplies PEG 8000 in Hyderabad with ready stock in 25 kg packaging. It is the highest molecular weight grade in our PEG range, used in structuring bases, tablet coatings, and industrial applications. Call +91 8008002576 for pricing.
How is PEG 8000 different from PEG 6000?
PEG 8000 has a higher average molecular weight than PEG 6000, giving it a higher melting point and firmer, harder consistency. It is used where maximum firmness and structural rigidity are required in solid PEG-based formulations, such as cosmetic sticks, industrial moulding applications, and certain tablet coating systems.
Is PEG 8000 used in laboratory or biochemical applications?
Yes. High molecular weight PEG grades including PEG 8000 are commonly used in laboratory settings as precipitating agents for proteins, nucleic acids, and viruses due to their ability to exclude these macromolecules from solution at appropriate concentrations. This is separate from its pharmaceutical excipient applications.
What packaging is PEG 8000 supplied in from Surravi Phharma?
PEG 8000 is supplied in 25 kg packaging as standard. COA and MSDS are provided with every shipment. Contact +91 8008002576 for bulk quantity pricing and lead times.
