Propylene Glycol is a synthetic organic compound widely used as a solvent and humectant. Produced via the hydration of propylene oxide, its molecular formula is C3H8O2 (CAS: 57-55-6). This colorless, viscous liquid serves as a critical intermediate in polyester resins.
Store in cool, dry areas away from oxidizers. While generally safe, high doses pose toxicity risks. Use appropriate PPE to prevent skin irritation during industrial handling.
