Ethylene glycol, also known as glycol, is the simplest aliphatic diol and has the chemical properties of alcohols, such as the ability to produce ethers and esters, the ability to be oxidized to produce aldehydes or acids, and the ability to condense to produce ethers. It can also be replaced by halogens. It reacts with chlorides or anhydrides, generally forming diesters.
Ethylene glycol is the production of polyester resin, alkyd resin, polyester fiber raw materials, but also the synthesis of polyester fiber and other polymer compounds.
Ethyleneglycol and nitroglycerin can be used in conjunction with explosives to reduce the freezing point.
It can also be used as raw materials for pharmaceuticals and plastics and high boiling point solvents.
By ethylene glycol and polyethylene glycol can be derived from a variety of types of surfactants.
Ethylene glycol can lower the freezing point of aqueous solutions and is also used as an antifreeze for automobiles and as a cooling agent for aircraft engines.
