Polyethylene glycol (PEG)

CAS No. 25322-68-3 / INCI Name: Polyethylene Glycol

AGRICULTUREANIMAL FOOD & FEEDANIMAL CARE

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is used in animal feed primarily as a binding agent and lubricant in the production of feed pellets. It helps improve the texture and consistency of pellets, preventing them from breaking apart and ensuring better handling during storage and transportation. PEG can also be used to enhance the palatability of the feed, especially in animal supplements, by making it more appealing to animals. Additionally, PEG is sometimes utilized in managing moisture levels in feed, improving its stability and shelf life.

Key Benefits and Uses of PEG:

  • Improves Pellet Durability and Handling
    Enhances structural integrity and prevents disintegration during storage and delivery.

  • Acts as a Lubricant in Feed Processing
    Reduces friction during pellet extrusion and aids in consistent production quality.

  • Enhances Palatability in Supplements
    Helps mask unpleasant flavors, increasing intake in livestock and companion animals.

  • Moisture Stabilizer for Shelf Life Extension
    Maintains optimal moisture levels, reducing the risk of spoilage or microbial growth.

  • Safe and Inert for Use in Feed Systems
    Non-toxic and compatible with a variety of feed formulations.

Common Application Include:

  • Livestock and Poultry Feed Pellets

  • Animal Nutrition Supplements

  • Moisture-Controlled Feed Blends

  • Pet Food Formulations

  • Pellet Lubricants and Binders
