MEG and DEG

Essential Glycols for Industrial Applications

Reliable Packaging and Shipment for Your Specific Needs

Monoethylene Glycol (MEG) and Diethylene Glycol (DEG) are two vital chemical compounds with widespread use across a variety of industries. From the production of polyester fibers and antifreeze to their roles in plastic manufacturing and coolants, MEG and DEG offer indispensable qualities such as high solubility, low volatility, and excellent heat transfer properties. In this article, we'll explore the key benefits and uses of MEG and DEG and how their packaging and shipment can be tailored to meet your industry requirements.

Monoethylene Glycol (MEG)

MEG is a colorless, odorless, and hygroscopic liquid that is primarily used in the production of polyester fibers, resins, and antifreeze formulations. Due to its excellent ability to absorb water and function as a coolant and antifreeze, it is widely used in automotive and industrial applications. It is also a key raw material in the production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is commonly used in plastic bottles and food packaging.

Key Uses of MEG:

• Antifreeze and coolant production
• Polyester fiber and resin manufacturing
• Production of plastic packaging materials (PET)
• Humectant in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals

Diethylene Glycol (DEG)

DEG is another highly useful glycol known for its hygroscopic nature and low volatility. Its primary applications are in the production of unsaturated polyester resins, polyurethanes, and as a solvent in many industrial applications. DEG is also commonly used in plasticizer formulations, antifreeze products, and brake fluids, providing versatility across various manufacturing processes.

Key Uses of DEG:

• Solvent for resins and dyes
• Production of unsaturated polyester resins and polyurethanes
• Antifreeze and de-icing formulations
• Plasticizer in adhesives, coatings, and paints
