As Propylene Glycol suppliers, we take extreme measures to ensure the quality of our materials. With a chemical formula of C3H8O2 or HO-CH2-CHOH-CH3, propylene glycol contains an asymmetrical carbon atom. With equal amounts of left- and right-handed enantiomers of a chiral molecule, this racemic mixture is produced by propylene oxide using either non-catalytic high-termperature processes or a catalytic method at lower temperatures.
Propylene Glycol is used in diazepam in its clinical, injectable form. Sometimes referred to as E1520 in its use as a food additive and solvent for food colors and flavorings, it is used as a moisturizer in foods as well as mouth wash, toothpaste, cosmetics, deodorant sticks and tobacco products (such as humidors, electronic cigarettes and pipe tobacco). It's used in fragrances, massage oils, antibacterial sanitizers and saline solutions.
Propylene Glycol is used in newer automotive anti-freezes and de-icers used at airports.
