Ethylene Glycol Anhydrous (Glass Distilled)

Ethylene Glycol Anhydrous is a high-purity form of Ethylene Glycol that contains less than 0.1% water by weight. It is a clear, colourless, and odourless liquid with a molecular formula of C2H6O2 and a molecular weight of 62.07 g/mol.

Like regular Ethylene Glycol, Ethylene Glycol Anhydrous is commonly used as an industrial solvent and coolant in automotive and industrial applications. Its low freezing point and high boiling point make it an effective antifreeze agent, helping to prevent the freezing and boiling of fluids in engines and other mechanical systems.

One of the primary advantages of Ethylene Glycol Anhydrous over regular Ethylene Glycol is its high purity. With fewer impurities, it is less likely to react with other chemicals or form deposits that can cause damage to mechanical systems. This makes it particularly useful in applications where a high degree of chemical purity is required, such as in the production of high-performance lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and heat transfer fluids.

However, it is important to note that Ethylene Glycol Anhydrous is also a toxic substance and can cause harm if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. As such, it is important to handle and store Ethylene Glycol Anhydrous with care, and to take appropriate safety precautions when working with this chemical.

• Industrial solvent and coolant in automotive and industrial applications.

• Antifreeze agent to prevent the freezing and boiling of fluids in engines and other mechanical systems.

• Production of high-performance lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and heat transfer fluids.

• Used in the production of polymers and plastics, such as polyesters and polyurethanes.

• Humectant (moisture-retaining agent) in the production of cosmetics, personal care products, and pharmaceuticals.

• Deicing agent for aircraft and airport runways.

• Used in scientific research as a cryoprotectant, a substance that protects biological tissues from damage caused by freezing.

• Ethylene Glycol Anhydrous is also used in the oil and gas industry as a hydrate inhibitor to prevent the formation of gas hydrates in pipelines.
