Description

Recommended products
Dimethyl carbonate PurCert Standard for GC

Application
Diethylene glycol may be used in the preparation of bis(2262-terpyrid-4-yl) diethylene glycol which can act as a precursor for producing water-soluble coordination polymers.

Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.

General Description
Diethylene glycol (DEG) is employed as a comonomer during the synthesis of poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET).It undergoes oxidation on treatment with nitric acid.Its toxicity has been assessed.The ozonation and modified Fenton oxidation of DEG have been investigated.
