Commercial polyethylene glycol is contaminated with polymers that have aldehyde
groups at the ends. Other impurities include some amount of internal epoxide
linkages. The aldehyde groups can be additionally oxidized to carboxylic
acids. I would assume that oxidation to terminal carboxylic

known mechanisms of crystallization capacities of PEGs of various
ages?
