ethylene glycol

Ethylene glycol 25kg, wholesale is a dihydric alcohol, a clear, colorless, odorless oily liquid. Let's dissolve completely in alcohol, water and acetone. It dissolves in water with the release of heat and a decrease in volume. Poorly soluble in ether. Toxic, flammable, self-igniting substance. It poses a threat to human health and life if ingested and inhaled. Able to enter the human body through broken skin. Has a narcotic effect. In chronic poisoning, it causes irreversible damage to vital organs. In acute poisoning with monoethylene glycol, a lethal outcome is possible. On an industrial scale, the production of glycol is based on the hydration of ethylene oxide under high pressure and when heated to 200 ° C, as well as at normal pressure in the presence of orthophosphoric or sulfuric acids.

In accordance with GOST19710-83, two grades are produced: the highest and the first.

The chemical formula is C2H6O2.

Where is it applied?

Due to the ability not to freeze at sufficiently low temperatures and to reduce the freezing point of the liquids in which it is included, it has found wide application in the cooling systems of climate equipment and computers, is part of the brake fluid, antifreeze and car coolant;

As part of a liquid for washing windows, for washing the glass of aircraft and cars (solutions with different content of the substance) and as an additive for aviation fuel (liquid I);

As part of the working fluid of hydraulic systems and mechanisms, as well as in the composition of hardening media;

In the processes of organic synthesis. It is used in the production of polymers, polyurethanes, cellophane, nitroglycol, artificial fibers and films. Used in the manufacture of capacitors.

It is used as a solvent for the production of enamels, paints, inks, and as esters for the production of varnishes, resins and varnishes. Included in the shoe cream.

In medicine, it is used as a penetrating cryoprotectant when freezing biological samples of tissues, blood, etc. (prevent the formation of ice crystals and tissue rupture). It is used in the cosmetics and perfume industries, as well as in the dressing and dyeing of leather and the production of fabrics at the stage of fiber interlacing.
