PRODUCT INFORMATION / 02
Technical information and product properties
The information below is based on the existing Bölge Kimya product description. It does not replace a batch-specific certificate of analysis.What is Diethylene Glycol (DEG)?
Diethylene glycol is a clear, transparent, odourless liquid that is miscible with water in all proportions. The source product description states that it is obtained by reacting ethylene oxide with monoethylene glycol.
It has a higher molecular weight and boiling point than monoethylene glycol. The source lists 230 kg metal drums, 1,150 kg IBCs and bulk tanker supply. Confirm current supply terms with our sales team.
The current Safety Data Sheet (SDS) must be consulted when using, storing and transporting DEG. View Safety Data Sheet ↗
