Propylene glycol

Propylene Glycol USP/EP/FCC (CAS 57-55-6) is a high-purity (>99.5%) multi-functional liquid solvent and humectant compliant with global pharmacopeia standards. As a USP-grade pharmaceutical excipient, it serves as low-endotoxin (≤0.5EU/ml) injection solvent; in cosmetics, it acts as OECD 439-certified low-irritant humectant; for food processing, FCC-grade PG functions as antifreeze carrier (21 CFR 184.1666); while industrial applications leverage its low-toxicity antifreeze properties (-59°C, ASTM D1384). Technical documentation available.

Product Usage

Propylene Glycol (CAS 57-55-6) serves as a vital multifunctional ingredient across industries due to its high solubility and low toxicity. In pharmaceuticals, it acts as a USP-certified solvent for oral/transdermal formulations with low endotoxin levels (≤0.5 EU/ml). Cosmetic manufacturers utilize its OECD 439-certified moisturizing properties in lotions and serums for enhanced hydration. Food processing employs FCC-grade PG as a safe antifreeze carrier (21 CFR 184.1666), while industrial applications leverage its ASTM D1384-compliant antifreeze efficiency (-59°C freeze point). Technical portfolios available for sector-specific solutions.
