APPLICATIONS

Propylene Glycol is a colourless, viscous, colorless liquid. It is miscible with water alcohol, and many solvents. This versatile PO (propylene oxide) derivative has wide range of applications including industrial solvents, paint and coating solvents, polyester and alkyd resins, antifreeze coolants, heat transfer fluids, deicing fluids, plasticizers, detergents and surfactants, and bactericide. USP grade is used in foods, pharmaceutical, and personal care products. Fatty acid esters of propylene glycol are used as biodegradable enhancers in solvents and penetration enhancer in drug delivery systems. They are used as carriers in gelatin capsules. They can be used as a lipophiic emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer in food and personal care products.
