TEG Triethylene glycol CAS 112-27-6

Details:

Product information

 Triethylene glycol is a colorless odorless hygroscopic viscous liquid. With water, alcohol, propyl alcohol, benzene and other miscible. In addition, triethylene glycol passable dissolved ortho dichlorobenzene, phenol, nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate and dextrin, but insoluble in petroleum ether resin and grease.

Reactivity Profile:
2,2'-(Ethylenedioxy)diethanol is a ether-alcohol derivative. The ether being relatively unreactive. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert alcohols to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides. Reacts with strong oxidants.

Uses of Triethylene Glycol
 It is not only used as a plasticizer for vinyl, but also used in Air-Sanitizer products.
When aerosolized, it acts as a disinfectant.
Additionally, Triethylene glycol is also used as liquid desiccants for natural gas and in air conditioning systems.
Furthermore, it is an additive for hydraulic fluids and brake fluids and used as a base for "smoke machine" fluid in the entertainment industry.

Application
It is mainly used to make polyester polyester, polyester resin, hygroscopic agent, plasticizer, surfactant, synthetic fiber, cosmetics and explosives, as solvent for dye, ink, etc., as antifreeze agent for engine, as gas dehydrating agent, as resin, and as wetting agent for cellophane, fiber, leather and adhesive. It can produce synthetic resin pet, fiber grade PET is polyester fiber, bottle slice grade PET is used to make mineral water bottle, etc. It can also produce alkyd resin, glyoxal and so on, and also be used as antifreeze. In addition to being used as antifreeze for automobiles, it is also used for the transportation of industrial cooling capacity. It is generally called as refrigerant carrier. At the same time, it can also be used as condensation agent as water.

Glycol methyl ether series products are high-grade organic solvents with excellent performance. They are used as solvent and diluent for printing ink, industrial cleaning agent, coating (nitrocellulose paint, varnish, enamel), copper clad plate, printing and dyeing, etc.; they can be used as raw materials for the production of chemical products such as pesticide intermediates, pharmaceutical intermediates, synthetic brake fluid, etc.; they can be used as electrolyte of electrolytic capacitor and dyeing of leather chemical fiber Agent, etc. It is used as textile auxiliaries, synthetic liquid dyes, raw materials of desulfurizer in chemical fertilizer and oil refining production, etc.
