Product Specifications
Monoethylene Glycol (MEG) is an organic compound that is used in a variety of industrial applications. Its chemical formula is C2H6O2, and it is also referred to as ethylene glycol or 1,2-Ethanediol. It has an odorless, colorless appearance and is highly stable under normal environmental conditions. MEG has the ability to absorb moisture from the atmosphere and control humidity levels by forming hygroscopic solutions. Additionally, due to its low freezing point and viscosity index, MEG can be used as antifreeze for automotive cooling systems and domestic heating systems. MEG offers several advantages over other materials when used in industrial settings. For example, it provides a corrosion inhibitor for electrical contacts in insulated wire applications and prevents sediment buildup in automobile engines. Additionally, since MEG does not evaporate quickly at normal temperatures like some compounds do, it can act as a higher boiling point coolant or heat transfer agent in a system where ultra-high temperatures are present. Finally, due to its good thermal stability properties even at high temperatures, MEG can help to reduce carbon deposits within combustion chambers of engines.
