Description

Polyethylene oxide (PEO) is a non-ionic, high molecular weight polymer with good water solubility and heat formative.

PEO was first obtained by Staudinger and Lonmann in 1933 with the molecular weight above 100,000, and then first put into industrial production by Union Carbide Corporation in 1958.

Dow Chemical(US), Sumitomo Seika(JP) and Meisei Chemical Works(JP) are the top 3 manufacturters of Polyethylene Oxide (PEO), with about 76% market shares.

Global major consumption areas are mainly concentrated in North America, Western Europe and Asia-Pacific. Asia-Pacific PEO took about 75% of global total consumption. North America took about 20% consumption share.

According to the molecular weight, PEO is mainly divided into MW: below 1 million, MW: 1-5 million and MW: above 5 million. MW: 1-5 million holds the most share of PEO with 87%.
