d.e.g

diethylene glycol (deg) is a clear, colorless, odorless liquid with a sweet taste, and is an excellent solvent for water-insoluble chemicals and drugs. Deg is used as a component of multiple different products including antifreeze preparations, cosmetics, lubricants, brake fluids, wallpaper strippers, heating/cooling fuel and as a plasticizer. Deg has also been inappropriately substituted in pharmaceutical preparations for nontoxic constituents, resulting in more than a dozen epidemics of human poisoning, with resultant high mortality rates. The hallmark of deg toxicity is acute renal failure, and deaths have been reported despite aggressive treatment with hemodialysis.

application:

diethylene glycol is used as a dehydrating agent for natural gas; a raw material for the production of plasticizers and polyester resins; a humectant; a textile lubricant and coupling agent; a solvent in textile dyeing and printing; a constituent of hydraulic fluids; a plasticizer for paper, cork and synthetic sponges; a solvent in printing inks; a raw material for the production of esters used as emulsifiers, demulsifiers, and lubricants; and a selective solvent for aromatics in petroleum refining.

peg 400

peg 400 (polyethylene glycol 400) is a low-molecular-weight grade of polyethylene glycol. It is a clear, colorless, viscous liquid. Due in part to its low toxicity, peg 400 is widely used in a variety of pharmaceutical formulations.

technical properties

meg

monoethylene glycol (meg) or ethylene glycol is one of the important commercially available glycol. It is produced industrially from ethylene or ethylene oxide. In this process of manufacturing meg two co-products are obtained, diethylene glycol (deg) and triethylene glycol (teg).

it is an important raw material for the number of industrial applications including manufacturing of polyester fiber, fabrics and polyethylene terephthalate used to manufacture bottles. Other industrial uses comprise of being used as a coolant, heat transfer agents, antifreeze and also as a hydrate inhibitor in gas pipelines.

application:

chemical intermediate for resins - polyester resins, resin esters as plasticizers, alkyd-type resins

solvent coupler - stabilizer against gel formation, freezing point depression, heat transfer fluids, all weather anti-freeze and as coolants, water-based formulation

solvent - medium for suspending conductive salt in electrolytic capacitors

humectants - textile fibers, paper & leather, adhesives & glue

chemical intermediate - used as solvents
