Mono Ethylene Glycol

Product Description

Monoethyleneglycol (MEG) is a versatile organic compound with widespread industrialapplications. It is a colorless, odorless liquid that is miscible with waterand many organic solvents. MEG is primarily used as a raw material in theproduction of polyester fibers, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins, andantifreeze solutions. Its low freezing point and high boiling point make it anideal component in automotive antifreeze formulations, where it prevents enginecoolant from freezing in cold temperatures and helps to prevent overheating inhot conditions. Additionally, MEG serves as a solvent in various chemicalprocesses and as a humectant in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries dueto its ability to attract and retain moisture. With its diverse range ofapplications, MEG plays a crucial role in numerous sectors of the economy, fromtextiles to automotive to personal care products.
