TRI ETHYLENE GLYCOL

Product code RXSOL-19-1464-210

Triethylene glycol, high-purity grade viscous liquid.  We are supplier of TEG in small as well as Big drum sealed packing to maintain its quality to meet high-purity specifications for applications such as polyester resins, UV-curable resins and plasticizers.

Application

   
  • Triethylene glycol is a solvent prepared from ethylene oxide and ethylene glycol.
  • Triethylene glycol can be used:
  • To prepare fatty acid gelators, which are used to gelate various edible and vegetable oils.
  • As a solvent to prepare superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for in situ protein purification.
  • As an absorbent agent in the subsea natural gas dehydration process.
  • Triethylene glycol is used as a plasticizer, as an additive for hydraulic fluids and brake fluids, and as a disinfectant. It is an active component of certain pigments, printing dyes, inks and paste.
  • It finds application as a liquid desiccant and used in the dehydration of natural gas, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and air conditioning systems.
  • It plays as an important role in anti-freeze and de-icing products, cleaning and furnishing care products, lubricant and greases.

Dosage

Octane-1,8-diol in which the carbon atoms at positions 3 and 6 have been replaced by oxygen atoms
