November 2018: Global Propylene
Glycol Solvent Market is segmented, by product type, by
application, and by region. Propylene is a synthetic product obtained from the
hydration of propylene oxide, which is derived from petroleum products. Propylene
glycol, C3H8O2 or HO-CH2-CHOH-CH3, also called as 1,2- propanediol or
propane-1,2-diol is colorless, odorless an organic compound. It is a clear,
viscous liquid with a faintly sweet taste, hygroscopic and miscible with water,
acetone, and chloroform. The compound is sometimes called α-propylene glycol to
distinguish it from the isomer propane-1,3-diol HO-(CH2)3-OH, also called
β-propylene glycol.

Propylene glycol is a carbon-based, small molecule that belongs to
the “alcohol” family, along with the more familiar compounds “isopropyl
(rubbing alcohol)” and “ethanol (drinking alcohol)”. Mostly, however, propylene
glycol comes across as an effective solvent and is a common ingredient in
cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and deodorant sticks. Propylene Glycol is a basic
chemical which is processed in large quantities all over the world. Propylene
glycol is used as solvent in the manufacturing of care products such as
mouthwashes, ointments, skin creams, toothpastes, shampoos and perfumes, and in
the pharma industry.
Propylene Oxide based glycols are used in as humectants and
extraction liquids; apart from being used as solvents. They are also used as
antifreeze agent for sprinkler systems and refrigerators. Furthermore,
Propylene Glycol is used as a component for producing hydraulic fluids and
fire-resistant brake, as one of the starter molecules for raw materials of
paints and colors, as a raw material to de-ice planes as well as to heat fluids
for high-temperature work. As a food additive, propylene glycol is on the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) generally regarded as safe list. According
the FDA, as a food additive, propylene glycol is metabolized in the body and is
used as a normal carbohydrate source. Propylene Glycol Solvent Market is
classified, by product type into Mono-propylene glycol (MPG), Di-propylene
glycol (DPG), and Tri-propylene glycol (TPG).
DPG and TPG show greater solvency than MPG. Tripropylene glycol,
has the most extensive solvent properties of the entire glycol group. MPG is
used as a basic component in the food and beverage and in the animal feed
industry. DPG and TPG have several structure and stereo chemical isomers. These
chemicals find number of applications. Generally, these chemicals are available
in high purity product so well defined manufacturing is possible in chemical
industries.
Propylene
Glycol Solvent Market is classified, by application into Chemical Processing,
Pharmaceuticals, Transportation, Asphalt Production, Plastics & Rubber
Processing, Electronics, Food & Beverage Processing, Metal Processing, and
Agricultural Chemicals. Propylene glycol acts as a softening agent, ointment
base, preservative, humectants, and emollient. Petroleum Refining Propylene
Glycol Solvent Market is segmented, geographically into North America, Europe
(Eastern Europe, Western Europe), Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and
Africa.
