Propylene Glycol Supplier, Manufacturer, and Distributor in India

Nestled on the eastern coast of India, Vizag, also known as Visakhapatnam, is rapidly emerging as an industrial juggernaut, especially in the chemical domain. Amongst the myriad chemicals it deals with, Propylene Glycol (PG) shines brightest due to its multifaceted applications. As India's industrial spine, Vizag's prominence in the PG sector accentuates the city's and India's vital role in the global chemical marketplace.

CAS NO: 57-55-6

Formula: C3H8O2

Product Description:

Propylene Glycol, encapsulated by the formula C3H8O2, is a colorless, tasteless, and nearly odorless synthetic organic compound. Its slightly sweet flavor and myriad applications make it indispensable in various industries globally.

Usage & Applications:

Propylene glycol (PG) is a synthetic, colorless, odorless, and tasteless liquid that is hygroscopic and miscible with a wide range of solvents, including water, acetone, and chloroform. Its chemical formula is C3H8O2. It is produced from propylene oxide and is commonly used in a plethora of applications because of its unique properties.

2. Food Industry

• Preservative and Anti-caking Agent: PG serves as a food additive with E-number E1520. It acts as a carrier fluid for flavoring agents, keeping foods moist and preventing them from caking or clumping.
• Flavoring Carrier: Used in producing flavors for a range of products from baked goods to e-cigarettes.
• Food Coloring: Helps distribute food coloring evenly within products.

3. Pharmaceutical and Cosmetics

• Solvent: PG is a solvent in many pharmaceuticals, including oral, injectable, and topical formulations.
• Skin-care: Found in many topical creams and ointments as it's a good moisturizer and helps in the active ingredients' absorption.
• Toothpaste and Mouthwashes: Used as a humectant, solvent, and preservative.
• Deodorants: Acts as a carrier for the active ingredients.

4. Industrial Applications

• Antifreeze and De-icers: Used in de-icing solutions for aircraft wings and as a coolant in liquid cooling systems due to its low freezing point.
• Plasticizer: Helps in the production of plastic materials, making them flexible and resistant to break.
• Hydraulic Fluids: Used in hydraulic systems because of its non-corrosive nature.

5. Electronic Cigarettes

PG is one of the primary base ingredients, along with vegetable glycerin, used in the production of e-liquid for e-cigarettes. It carries the flavor better than its counterpart and gives the sensation of a throat hit when vaporized.

6. Textile Industry

Acts as a carrier fluid in hydraulic systems used in the production of textiles. It also serves as a humectant in certain dyeing processes.

7. Pet Food and Animal Feed

Propylene glycol is used as a feed ingredient for moisture stabilization and to reduce the potential for mold growth. However, it's worth noting that while PG is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for dogs, it is toxic to cats and should not be used in cat food.

8. Medical Procedures

• Cryonics: PG, in combination with other chemicals, is sometimes used in the vitrification solution for human cryopreservation.
• Dialysis: Used in certain formulations of dialysates in medical dialysis procedures.

9. HVAC Systems

In heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, propylene glycol is used as a secondary coolant. It reduces the freezing point of the water, allowing it to transport more heat without freezing.\

Propylene glycol is a versatile compound, spanning a vast array of applications across multiple sectors, from food to pharmaceuticals to industry. Its unique combination of properties, including its solvency, low freezing point, and hygroscopicity, makes it invaluable in many formulations and uses. As with any chemical, its use in specific applications is governed by regulatory bodies, ensuring its safety for both humans and the environment.
