Product Description

Product Description

Ethylene glycol (EG, (CH2OH)2), the simplest diol, is a colorless, odorless, sweet-tasting, low-toxicity liquid. It is highly soluble in water and acetone but less so in ethers.

EG is a key solvent, antifreeze, and raw material for polyester production, including PET resins, fibers, and packaging. It also serves in alkyd resins, glyoxal synthesis, surfactants, plasticizers, and as a solvent for dyes/inks.

Its primary industrial uses include:

  Antifreeze: Automotive and industrial cooling systems.
  Heat transfer: Efficient condensing agent and coolant.
  Polymer production: Fiber-grade PET (textiles, bottles) and film-grade PET.

Application

Ethylene glycol (EG) is primarily used for:

Automotive antifreeze – Lowers the freezing point of coolant to prevent engine freezing.
Humectant – Applied in cellophane, fibers, leather, and adhesives to improve flexibility.
Solvent – Dissolves dyes, inks, etc., widely used in chemical and printing industries.
Resin production – A key raw material for polyester resins (e.g., PET) and other polymers.
