GLYCOLS
Glycols
Glycols are often used as solvents for dyes, paints, resins, inks, perfumes, additives, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
MONOETHYLENE GLYCOL
Inhibited monoethylene glycol is a compound deriving from ethylene glycol and is in the form of a transparent, odourless and dense liquid, completely soluble in water.
Organic substances are often used as an antifreeze in the automotive and automotive sectors and for refrigeration circuits.
It has great protective properties towards metals and is also used for the production of resins and polyesters, specifically for PET used in the production of containers for food use.
Monoethylene glycol has properties highly valued in the production of paper, textiles, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
DIETHYLENE GLYCOL
Diethylene glycol, also known as Diethylene glycol (DEG), is a liquid, colourless, practically odourless, and poisonous organic compound.
It is miscible in water, alcohol, ether, acetone and ethylene glycol.
Diethylene glycol is used in the production of resins, polyesters, polyurethanes and plasticizers.
It is used in organic synthesis and as a solvent for resins, dyes, oils and other organic compounds.
It is used for printing ink, glue, brake fluid, lubricants and fuel.
Also used in personal care products.
TRIETHYLENE GLYCOL
Triethylene glycol, TEG or triglycol is a colorless and odorless viscous liquid.
Used as a plasticizer for vinyl polymers and in air cleaning products.
It acts as a disinfectant and drying agent for liquid natural gas and in air conditioning systems.
It is an additive for hydraulic and brake fluids.
TEG is used by the oil and gas industry to process natural gas.
Triethylene glycol is a mild disinfectant.
MONOPROPYLENE GLYCOL
Monopropylene glycol (MPG) is a clear, odourless, colourless, viscous liquid preservative.
Designed to inhibit the growth of the most common moulds that grow on standard foods.
Used for food applications, cosmetics skin and hair care products and soaps.
Suitable for vegans, non-GMO and gluten-free.
MONOPROPYLENE GLYCOL HP
HP monopropylene glycol is used in the pharmaceuticals, Inks, Paints, Resins, Adhesives, Sealants and Metal Surface Treatment sectors.
Monopropylene glycol is used for many purposes:
– As a solvent in pharmaceutical preparations, medicines, cosmetics, foods and tobacco products;
– As a food additive;
– As a base for defrosting liquids;
– As a coolant;
– In veterinary medicine to treat ketosis on farms.
DIPROPYLENE GLYCOL
Dipropylene glycol, also known as propylene glycol or DP, is a chemical compound with a high boiling and melting point.
Its ability to maintain fluidity at low temperatures makes it useful in applications requiring freeze resistance.
It is soluble in water, alcohol, and many other organic solvents.
Dipropylene glycol is used in various industrial sectors such as chemical, pharmaceutical and food.
TRIPROPYLENE GLYCOL
Tripropylene Glycol, also known as Tripropylene Glycol (TPG), is a high-purity product ideal as a reactive chemical intermediate in the radiation polymerization sector.
TPG is a colourless, water-soluble, low toxicity, low vapour pressure, medium viscosity, hygroscopic liquid with a faint odour characteristic of glycol.
It is used as a raw material for radiation polymerizable formulations.
Used for printing inks, varnishes, paints and coatings.
ANTIFREEZE (MONOETHYLENE GLYCOL INHIBITED)
Inhibited monoethylene glycol is a compound derived from ethylene glycol.
It is an organic substance widely used as an antifreeze, especially in the automotive and automotive industrial sectors and for refrigeration circuits.
The compound is stable and appears as a transparent and dense liquid, soluble in water.
Inhibited monoethylene glycol is an odourless compound with multiple characteristics that make it suitable for many uses.
Its normal appearance is light in colour, tending towards transparency but, in specific cases, it can take on different colours based on the organic additives used.
It has great protective properties towards the metals that form the parts of the cooling circuit or internal combustion engines.
Monoethylene glycol is widely used as an antifreeze.
The sectors in which we find mono ethylene glycol are:
Automotive
Used as organic antifreeze to safeguard engines.
Industrial
Used for the production of polyester-based resins and fibres, specifically PET used for the production of bottles for food use.
Textile
Used for its hygroscopic properties.
Chemist
Used to produce capacitors.
Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals
Used for the production of cosmetics and drugs.
