General Properties of PEO (Polyethyl oxide)?

Question

General or numeric descriptions of the following properties of PEO would be appreciated

Thermal

Mechanical

Electrical

Flame Retardancy

Bonus: What is the overlap concentration of PEO in forming a nanofiber with PES

Answer 1

I believe that it normally is considered polyethylene oxide.

Do you mean in water solution or as a solid?

More information.

PEO is commonly used in water solution as a surfactant/dispersant.   Depending upon its molecular weight,  as a pure material,  it can be a waxy solid or liquid.   It has poor mechanical properties,  is an electrical non-conductor and will burn.

No idea about nanofibers.

Answer 2

PEO is usually called Polyethylene Oxide.  Commercially, it is available in many different sizes and the properties change somewhat with average Molecular mass and amount of cross-linkage.  Polymers with relatively small Molecular mass are called Polyethylene glycol (PEG).

In solution, it has viscoelastic properties.
