Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the main application of Monoethylene Glycol (MEG)?
A: The largest use of MEG is in the production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is used to make polyester fibers for textiles and plastic bottles. Its second major use is in antifreeze and coolant formulations due to its ability to lower the freezing point of water.
Q: Is MEG the same as Propylene Glycol?
A: No. While both are glycols, they have different properties and applications. MEG is primarily for industrial use and is toxic. Propylene Glycol is non-toxic and is used in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications.
Q: What are the safety precautions for handling MEG?
A: MEG is harmful if swallowed. It should be handled in a well-ventilated area with appropriate PPE, including chemical-resistant gloves and safety glasses, to prevent skin and eye contact. Always consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before use.
