1,2-Propanediol, also known as propylene glycol, is a colorless, odorless viscous liquid produced via the hydration of propylene oxide. Its molecular formula is C3H8O2 with CAS No. **57-55-6**. It serves as a critical solvent and humectant in industrial synthesis.
While generally recognized as safe (GRAS), high concentrations may cause irritation. Store in cool, dry areas away from oxidizers. Industrial grades require specific handling to prevent skin contact and inhalation of vapors during processing.
