Poly(ethylene oxide-b-propylene oxide) [ratio 3:1]

Poly(ethylene oxide-b-propylene oxide) (PEO-PPO) is an amphiphilic block copolymer composed of hydrophilic polyethylene oxide (PEO) and hydrophobic polypropylene oxide (PPO) segments. The ratio of 3:1 indicates a higher proportion of PPO, which imparts thermoresponsive behavior and surfactant properties. This polymer self-assembles in aqueous solutions to form micelles and exhibits phase transitions based on temperature and concentration. Chains are hydroxyl terminated. Polymers are p(EO/PO/EO) triblocks
ratio 3:1, Applications: Surfactants & Emulsifiers: Used in personal care, pharmaceuticals, and industrial formulations. Drug Delivery: Forms micelles for controlled-release drug carriers. Polymer Blends & Hydrogels: Enhances flexibility and responsiveness in biomedical applications.
