Diethylene Glycol (DEG) is a clear, colorless, and odorless liquid produced by the reaction of ethylene oxide with monoethylene glycol (MEG). It is a high-purity, hygroscopic compound that is completely miscible with water in all proportions, as well as with many organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers, and aldehydes.
DEG is known for its excellent solvency, high boiling point, and low volatility, making it a versatile chemical intermediate widely used in polyester resins, plasticizers, lubricants, coolants, and gas dehydration systems.
