Ethylene Glycol | 107-21-1
Product Description:
Ethylene glycol is the simplest diol. Ethylene glycol is a colourless, odourless, sweet-odoring liquid with low toxicity to animals. Ethylene glycol is miscible with water and acetone, but is less soluble in ethers. It is used as solvent, antifreeze and raw material of synthetic polyester. Polyethylene glycol (PEG), a polymer of ethylene glycol, is a phase-transfer catalyst and is also used for cell fusion; its esters of nitrate are a kind of explosive.
Product Application:
1.Mainly used in the production of polyester, polyester, polyester resin, hygroscopic agents, plasticizers, surfactants, synthetic fibres, cosmetics and explosives, and used as a solvent for dyes, inks, etc., the preparation of antifreeze for engines, gas dehydrating agent, the manufacture of resins, but also used in cellophane, fibres, leather, adhesives, wettability agent. Can produce synthetic resin PET, fibre grade PET that is polyester fibre, bottle grade PET for making mineral water bottles and so on. It can also produce alkyd resin, glyoxal, etc. It is also used as antifreeze. In addition to being used as antifreeze for automobiles, it is also used for the transport of industrial cold, and is generally called carrier refrigerant, meanwhile, it can also be used as condenser as water.
2.Glycol methyl ether series products are high-level organic solvents with excellent performance, used as solvents and diluents for printing inks, industrial cleaning agents, paints (nitrofibre paints, varnishes, lacquers), copper cladding boards, dyeing and printing, etc.; it can be used as raw materials for the production of pesticide intermediates, pharmaceutical intermediates, and synthetic brake fluids and other chemical products; used as electrolyte in electrolytic capacitors, and as dyeing agent for tannery and chemical fibres, etc. It is also used as textile auxiliaries, synthetic liquid dyestuffs, and raw materials for desulphurising agents in the production of fertilisers and oil refineries.
Product Storage Notes:
Keep in a cool and dry place.
