Research Summary

Monoethylene glycol (MEG) is a chemical compound with the formula HOCH2CH2OH. It is a colorless, odorless, and slightly viscous liquid that belongs to the class of glycols. MEG is widely used in many industries due to its unique properties. One of its primary applications is as an important raw material in the production of polyester fibers, resins, and films. MEG is a key component in the manufacturing process of polyester, where it reacts with terephthalic acid or dimethyl terephthalate to produce polyethylene terephthalate (PET) polymers. PET is commonly used in beverage bottles, food packaging, synthetic fibers, and various textiles. MEG’s ability to dissolve water and other substances, along with its low freezing point, makes it valuable as an antifreeze and coolant in diverse industries ranging from automotive to HVAC systems. it is also used as a solvent for dyes, resins, and inks and finds applications in the production of adhesives, cleaners, and personal care products. Additionally, it has hygroscopic properties, making it suitable for use in dehumidifying agents and gas drying processes.
