Dipropylene Glycol (DPG) is used as a reactive intermediate in the manufacture of high-performance unsaturated polyester resins, polyurethanes and plasticizers. DPG has great solvency, a low evaporation rate, low toxicity, high viscosity and low odor, making it a chemical intermediate of choice for many applications
Other Detail:
- High-volume plasticizer
- Reactant in unsaturated polyurethane resins, adding flexibility and hydrolytic stability
- Initiator in urethane polyols, and as the polyol itself in some rigid polyurethane systems
- Reactive diluents in radiation-cured resins and coatings, cutting viscosity and enabling easier application
- Other effective uses of DPG are:
- Hydraulic brake fluid formulations
- Cutting oils
- Textile lubricants
- Printing inks
- Coatings
- Industrial soaps
- Solvents for agricultural chemicals such as insecticides
- Dyes industries
- Pigments industry
- Flavors & fragrances.
- Glycols such as Propylene glycol (PGI), and Dipropylene Glycol (DPG) can be used as:
- Initiators for urethane polyol synthesis from epoxides
- The polyol itself in some polyurethane foam systems
- A component for polyurethane/urea elastomers
Paint and Coatings:
Adhesives, Sealants and Coatings:
- The full range of propylene glycols are used in the synthesis of alkyd resins found in paints, enamels and varnishes.
- DPG are used as compatibilizers and for freeze-thaw protection in latex-based paint formulations.
- DPG are used as resin solvents in the production of printing inks.
Alkyd Resins for Paint and Coatings:
- PGI is used as an intermediate in the production of alkyd resins for paints and varnishes. It controls flexibility and hardness.
Latex Paints:
- Propylene glycols (PGI, DPG and TPG) are used in latex-based architectural paints to provide freeze and thaw stability. They also enhance the quality of the final film by changing the open time and providing leveling during application.
UV-Curable Resins:
- UV-curable (or Radiation Cure) resins are used in printing inks, varnishes, paints and coating applications.
These resins offer several advantages, including:
- Increased energy efficiency
- No post curing
- Low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions
- Fast processing speeds
- Compact plant size
