Description
Application
Ethylene glycol is widely used as an antifreeze and coolant in automobile cooling systems. It is used in heat-transfer systems to prevent liquids from freezing at low temperatures. Ethylene glycol is an important raw material in the production of polyester fibers and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics.
Purpose
The main purpose of ethylene glycol is to act as a heat-transfer fluid and chemical raw material. It is especially useful because it has a low freezing point and a relatively high boiling point.
General Description
Ethylene glycol is a colorless odorless viscous liquid. It is a type of diol meaning that it contains two hydroxyl (-OH) groups and it has a sweet taste but is highly toxic if swallowed.
