TRIGLYCOL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Triglycol, also known as triethylene glycol, is a colorless, odorless, and hygroscopic liquid with the chemical formula C6H14O4, used primarily as a dehumidifying agent and in the manufacture of polyester resins, plasticizers, and solvents. It is employed in various industrial applications, including natural gas dehydration, as well as in the production of inks, coatings, and adhesives. Triglycol is also utilized as a component in antifreeze formulations and as a disinfectant due to its antimicrobial properties. Proper handling and storage of triglycol are essential to maintain its quality and prevent accidents, as prolonged exposure can cause skin and eye irritation. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial when working with triglycol. Its versatility and unique properties make triglycol a valuable chemical in numerous industrial applications, contributing to the production of a wide range of products and materials.
