What are the benefits of DEG Diethylene Glycol

High hygroscopicity: Its strong ability to absorb water makes it ideal for dehydrating gases such as natural gas.

 

Good solvency power: it effectively dissolves a wide range of substances, making it a versatile solvent and coupling agent.

 

Low volatility: Its high boiling point means it does not evaporate quickly, which is desirable in processes requiring a stable, high-boiling solvent.

 

Versatile chemical building block: Its two hydroxyl groups make it a reactive intermediate for synthesising more complex chemicals, such as plastics, resins and morpholine.
