Propylene Glycol (PG) is an important organic chemical product with the CAS No. 57-55-6 and HS Code 2905320000. It is a colorless, transparent, slightly viscous liquid with good water solubility, low volatility, stable chemical properties, and excellent compatibility with many organic compounds. Due to its good solvent performance, moisture retention, and wide application range, Propylene Glycol is widely used in resins, coatings, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food additives, antifreeze, heat transfer fluids, and various industrial chemical formulations.
Propylene Glycol is commonly used as a solvent, humectant, stabilizer, and chemical intermediate. In industrial applications, it can be used in the production of unsaturated polyester resin, plasticizers, surface coatings, inks, adhesives, and functional fluids. Its good miscibility with water and many organic solvents makes it suitable for formulations that require stable dissolution, moisture control, and smooth processing performance.
In the antifreeze and coolant industry, Propylene Glycol can be used as a component of heat transfer fluids, cooling systems, deicing fluids, and low-temperature working fluids. Compared with some traditional glycol products, PG is often selected for applications where lower toxicity and safer handling are preferred, subject to the required product grade and application standards. It helps reduce the freezing point of water-based systems and provides reliable performance in temperature-control applications.
Propylene Glycol also has applications in cosmetics, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, and food-related industries when the product grade meets relevant regulatory and quality requirements. It can be used as a moisture-retaining agent, carrier solvent, and stabilizing ingredient in selected formulations. For these applications, customers should confirm the required grade, purity, certification, and compliance documents before purchase.
The product should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse. Keep the container tightly closed and avoid exposure to heat, open flames, direct sunlight, and strong oxidizing agents. During handling, operators should wear suitable protective equipment and avoid direct contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Proper storage and transportation conditions help maintain product quality and stability.
