Diethylene glycol (DEG) is a remarkable organic compound, represented by the structural formula HO-CH2-CH2-O-CH2-CH2-OH. This transparent, hygroscopic, and odorless liquid is a versatile solvent, known for its complete miscibility with water and various polar organic solvents like alcohols and ethers.
Diols and Polyols
Diethylene glycol is an integral member of the diol family-hydrocarbons featuring two alcohol groups-originating from ethylene oxide. Its sibling, triethylene glycol (TEG), shares its colorless, odorless, and viscous nature. TEG serves as a plasticizer for vinyl and is utilized in air disinfectants such as 'Oust' or 'Clean and Pure'. When atomized, it acts as a potent disinfectant. Ethylene glycol finds its use as a liquid desiccant in natural gas and air conditioning, and as an additive for hydraulic oil and brake fluid.
Mirroring ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol solutions are excellent as coolants, adept at lowering freezing points and elevating boiling points, making them ideal for warm climates. DEG is a crucial component in organic synthesis for compounds like morpholine and 1,4-dioxane. It serves as a solvent for nitrocellulose, resins, dyes, oils, and more, while acting as a humectant for ***, cork, printing inks, and glues. Additionally, it's present in select hydraulic and brake fluids.
In personal care products such as skin creams, lotions, and deodorants, the less toxic DEG ethers are preferred over pure DEG.
Unfortunately, DEG is sometimes illicitly used as a pseudoglycerin in certain regions and is globally marketed as an ingredient in cough syrups and toothpaste.
