Mono Ethylene Glycol(MEG) CAS 107-21-1
Sinochem is a major Mono Ethylene Glycol & MEG supplier. Meanwhile, our firm staffs a group of experts devoted to your development of China Mono Ethylene Glycol & MEG.
As an important basic chemical raw material, ethylene glycol is widely used in polyester fiber production, antifreeze, chemical intermediates and solvents. Its excellent hygroscopicity, thermal stability and chemical activity make it one of the core chemicals in the industrial and consumer markets.
- Chemical Stability: high temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, suitable for long-term storage and high temperature conditions.
- High Purity and Consistency: Industrial and high purity products meet the needs of different industries.
- Environmental Compatibility: recyclable, in line with the development trend of green chemical industry.
Mono Ethylene Glycol Description
NAME: Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG)
Synonyms: Ethylene Glycol (EG) / Ethane-1,2-diol / Hypodicarbonous acid / Monoethylene glycol
Molecular Formula: C2H6O2
Molecular Weight: 62.07
CAS NO.: 107-21-1
Density: 1.1±0.1 g/cm3
Boiling point: 197.5±0.0 °C at 760 mmHg
Melting point: -13 °C(lit.)
Flashing point: 108.2±13.0 °C
Appearance: Colorless transparent slightly viscous liquid
Solubility: It can be miscible with water, ethanol, acetone, acetic acid, glycerol, pyridine, etc.
Properties: Colorless, transparent, slightly viscous liquid. Slightly sweet. Easy to absorb moisture. Miscible with water, glycerin, acetone, acetic acid, aldehydes, pyridine, ethanol, slightly soluble in ether, insoluble in benzene, petroleum ether, oils. Danger of contact with high heat or oxidants, may cause combustion and explosion. When exposed to high heat, the internal pressure of the container increases, and there is a risk of cracking and explosion.
Storage: Store in a cool and ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Store separately from oxidants and acids, and do not mix. Firefighting equipment of corresponding types and quantities should be equipped. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency treatment equipment and appropriate containment materials.
Due to its strong hygroscopicity, it should be stored in a sealed container and nitrogen should be used for long-term storage. It can be stored in iron, low carbon steel, copper or aluminum containers, with a net weight of 100 kg or 200 kg per barrel. For long-term storage, it should be sealed with nitrogen and protected from moisture, fire and freezing. It should be stored and transported in accordance with the regulations for flammable chemicals.
Safety Protection: It is of low toxicity. Workers should take good protection and rinse eyes and skin immediately with running water when it comes into contact with them.
About Us: With over many years as a certified Mono Ethylene Glycol & MEG manufacturer, we combine innovation with stringent production standards to deliver high-performance product.
