Products Description
Diethylene glycol is a colourless liquid fully miscible with water and denser than water. Direct contact may result in mild irritation to the skin, eye tissues and mucous membranes. It demonstrates low acute oral toxicity for humans and serves as an essential chemical intermediate for synthesizing a wide spectrum of specialty chemicals.

Products Application
Diethylene glycol (DEG) is a versatile industrial solvent and formulation component extensively used across multiple commercial fields. It covers a broad scope of industrial applications. In natural‑gas processing, it is deployed as a dehydrating agent. For textile manufacturing, it serves as a lubricant and finishing additive. It is also incorporated into brake fluids, lubricants, antifreeze compositions, wallpaper strippers and artificial fog formulations. Furthermore, DEG acts as a solvent for printing inks and textile dyes, and functions as a vital synthetic intermediate for specialty resins, triethylene glycol, surfactants, along with diethylene glycol‑based esters and ethers.
