The uses and applications of Diethylene Glycol may vary according to its specification. The main forms of Diethylene Glycol are technical grade (75 to 95% purity) and analytical standard (99% minimum purity).

About Diethylene Glycol. Diethylene Glycol (a.k.a. DEG, Dihydroxy Diethyl Ether) is an organic compound, in the glycol ether class, in which glycol is a family of alcohols with two hydroxyl groups attached to different carbon atoms. It is a colorless, practically odorless viscous liquid, with a sweetish taste. Perhaps it is most commonly known for its incidents worldwide, which poisoned and lead to the death of numerous people since it is used as a substitute for pharmaceutical grade glycerin or propylene glycol in pharmaceuticals/food.

DEG is transported and stored in large drums, usually made of plastic, lined with baked-phenolic resin, an air-drying epoxy-phenolic resin or vinyl resin, or stainless steel or aluminum. Zinc or galvanized iron is not recommended and copper or copper alloys may cause product discoloration. Diethylene glycol is not flammable, but it is toxic to humans if swallowed. If extremely low water content is required in long storage or transportation periods, then a nitrogen blanket is recommended to be used in storage tanks to protect product quality, specifically, the moisture content.

Raw materials and the respective production processes employed in the manufacturing of Diethylene Glycol are listed below.

  • Ethylene oxide (hydrolysis, coproduced with ethylene glycol and triethylene glycol)

The uses and applications of Diethylene Glycol may vary according to its specification. The main forms of Diethylene Glycol are technical grade (75 to 95% purity) and analytical standard (99% minimum purity).
