Diethylene Glycol(DEG) CAS 111-46-6
Sinochem is a major Diethylene Glycol & DEG supplier. Meanwhile, our firm staffs a group of experts devoted to your development of China Diethylene Glycol & DEG.
Diethylene glycol is a colorless, transparent, viscous liquid at room temperature, with strong hygroscopicity, high boiling point and excellent solubility. Its molecular structure contains two hydroxyl groups and two ether bonds, and is both hydrophilic and solvent.
- Efficient solvent performance: Strong solubility for polar substances such as dyes, resins, and nitrocellulos, suitable for coating and ink formulations.
- Moisture absorption and moisturizing properties: Adjustable environmental humidity, used in fields such as textile fiber processing and tobacco moisture retention.
- High boiling point stability: Not easily volatile at high temperatures, suitable for high-temperature processes such as polyester resin synthesis.

Diglycol Applications
1. Mainly used as solvent, such as solvent for rubber, resin, grease, paint, medicine, etc. It can also be used as resin plasticizer, tobacco anti-drying agent, fiber lubricant and gas desiccant, etc.
2. Used to prepare plasticizers, and can also be used as extractants, desiccants, heat preservation agents, softeners and solvents, etc. Diethylene glycol is mainly used for aromatic extraction, as a solvent, ink adhesive and textile dye, and is also used in the production of rubber and resin plasticizers, polyester resins, glass fibers, polyurethane foams, lubricant viscosity improvers and other products.
3. Used as gas dehydrating agent and aromatic extraction solvent, and also as a solvent for textile lubricants, finishing agents, softeners, plasticizers, humidifiers, sizing agents, nitrocellulose fibers, resins and greases.
4. Used as solvent, gas dehydrating agent, extraction solvent, water softener, suitable for liquid and gas chromatography analysis of aqueous solutions, selective polyethylene glycol, used to analyze the content of oxygen-containing compounds (especially alcohols) and fatty amines.
