About Propylene Oxide. Propylene Oxide (a.k.a. PO, Epoxypropane, Methyl Oxirane) is a synthetic, highly-flammable, volatile, colorless liquid with ethereal odor that is soluble in water and miscible with most organic solvents. This organic, highly reactive compound is a major commodity chemical, as well as starting material for several products, from polymers and solvents to industrial fluids.
Commercial Grades. chemical grade (ca. 8% propane) and polymer grade (ca. 0.3% propane).
Uses. Propylene Oxide is mainly used in the synthesis of polyether polyols, propylene glycols, and propylene glycol ethers. To a lesser extent, it is used in the production of a broad range of products: surfactants; detergents; fumigant; synthetic lubricants; synthetic elastomers; solvent; modified food starch; food-packaging; adhesives; and defoamer in food-contact paper/paperboard.
