What are the uses of Monopropylene Glycol USP?
Monopropylene Glycol USP (MPG) can be an integral component in a variety of industries that is due to its relatively low toxicity.
To list, Monopropylene Glycol is used for the production of unsaturated polyester resins, creating bath tubs, small boats, chemical/water tanks and pipes. Further applications include paints and coatings, aeroplane de-icers, antifreeze, coolants, detergents and hydraulic fluids.
United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) Grade MPG has a minimum purity of 99.8%. MPG is a colourless, viscous, and odourless liquid. It is highly hygroscopic and miscible in all ratios with water, alcohols, esters, ketones, and amines. It has limited miscibility with halogenated hydrocarbons and is not miscible with aliphatic hydrocarbons. USP grade MPG is used during the production of Food, Beverage, and Cosmetic/Personal Care Products. Pharmaceutical Industries will use it as an excipient (inactive ingredient or carrier in a pharmaceutical product).
Usage in Antifreeze Coolant
Fluid Science provides MPG Based Food Safe Antifreeze Coolant with 50/50 DI Water and MPG mix. This can also be ordered in a bespoke ratio of Glycol and Water.
Manufacturers of Air Source Heat Pumps recommend the use of a Glycol Anti-Freeze to prevent it from freezing up during the winter months. This will prevent any damage when water freezes and expands within the plate of the heat exchanger which could cause leaks and a broken heat pump. As this water is used within homes/buildings and comes into contact with people, a food safe Glycol like Monopropylene Glycol is perfect for use in this matter. We supply Monopropylene Glycol (MPG) on its own or within our very own Antifreeze Coolant mixture as “Ultra-Pure Grade”.
