What is Dipropylene Glycol?
Dipropylene Glycol is a colorless, low-odor, hygroscopic liquid belonging to the glycol family. It is a mixture of three isomeric compounds (primarily 2,2'-oxybis(propan-1-ol)) produced as a by-product of propylene glycol manufacturing. DPG is known for its excellent solvency, low volatility, and mild hygroscopicity. It is widely used as a solvent, coupling agent, and intermediate in cosmetics, fragrances, resins, and functional fluids. Its favorable safety profile and stability make it a versatile ingredient in industrial and consumer applications.
