Product Name
Tripropylene Glycol (TPG)
Synonyms: TPG, 1,1′,1′′-Tris(propan-2-yloxy)propane, Tri-PPG
Product Overview
Tripropylene Glycol (TPG) is a high-boiling, viscous, colorless, and nearly odorless liquid. As a member of the glycol family, it exhibits excellent hygroscopicity, low volatility, and compatibility with water and many organic solvents. TPG is widely used in fragrances, functional fluids, industrial solvents, and as a chemical intermediate in the production of plasticizers and polyurethanes.
Applications
Fragrances & Personal Care: Acts as a carrier or fixative in perfumes and cosmetics
Defoamers & Lubricants: Used as a base fluid in metalworking and hydraulic fluids
Solvent: In paints, inks, and cleaning formulations requiring low odor and high solvency
Plasticizers: Intermediate for the synthesis of flexible, durable plastic materials
Polyurethane Systems: Reactant in polyol formulations for coatings, adhesives, and elastomers
