Versatile Applications in Industry

Diethylene glycol serves a key role across diverse industries due to its high purity and excellent solubility. It is employed in the formulation of polyester resins, lubricants, and coolants, and acts as a reliable chemical intermediate. Its miscibility with water and many solvents also makes it valuable in dye manufacturing and as a plasticizer in various processes.

Safe Storage and Handling

To maintain its stability and purity, it is essential to store diethylene glycol in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, away from direct sunlight. Proper storage not only extends its shelf life to 24 months but also minimizes the risk of contamination by moisture or other substances, ensuring its optimal performance in industrial applications.

Quality and Compliance Standards

This diethylene glycol meets industrial grade standards, with a minimum purity of 99.5%. It is noted for low levels of main impurities, such as monoethylene glycol and triethylene glycol. The product is not regulated as a hazardous material for transport, making logistics straightforward for dealers, exporters, and manufacturers.

FAQ's of DIETHYLENE GLYCOL:

Q: How should diethylene glycol be stored to ensure its stability?
