- Description
- Comments
Monoethylene glycol is a liquid organic compound with the molecular formula C2H6O2. It is mainly used for two purposes, it is used as a raw material in the manufacture of polyester and polyethylene terephthalate fibers, and it is also one of the main materials for making antifreeze formulations. This liquid is odorless, colorless, sweet tasting, toxic and viscous and soluble in water
Monoethylene glycol is also known as ethane-1,2-diol, or MEG, and antifreeze

Applications of monoethylene glycol (Monoethylene glycol)
Monoethylene glycol or MAG is a vital ingredient for the production of polyester fibers and films, polyethylene terephthalate resins, and engine coolants
End uses of monoethylene glycol include clothing and other textiles, packaging, kitchenware, engine coolant, and antifreeze. Polyester and woolen fabrics, upholstery, carpets and pillows, as well as light and strong polyethylene terephthalate containers and food containers originate from ethylene glycol. The wetting properties (water absorption) of MEG products also make them ideal for use in the treatment of fibers, paper, adhesives, printing inks, leather and cellophane
Health risks of monoethylene glycol (Monoethylene glycol)
The chemical is highly toxic when ingested, and the main danger is its sweet taste, which encourages more consumption. This increases the risk to animals and children. Ingestion of sufficient amounts is fatal if not treated by oxidizing ethylene glycol in the body to glycolic acid and then to the toxic chemical, oxalic acid. Consumption of MEG affects the central nervous system and heart and can cause acute kidney failure
Eye exposure to monoethylene glycol vapors can cause irritation, so goggles are recommended when handling chemicals. Exposure to liquid ethylene glycol can cause serious eye damage. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention
Skin exposure to monoethylene glycol can also cause irritation, so gloves should be worn. If the skin becomes contaminated, all wet clothing should be removed and the skin washed with water. Exposure to high levels of inhaled ethylene glycol can cause respiratory irritation and unbearable coughing. In case of excessive inhalation, the person should leave the environment, breathe fresh air and seek medical attention
Monoethylene glycol or MEG packaging: supplied in a 230 kg barrel
