Glycols

Glycols are important chemical raw materials used in a wide range of industrial manufacturing processes. Depending on their chemical structure and functional properties, they are used in polyurethane systems, polyester resins, coatings, adhesives, construction chemicals, and many other industrial applications.

The KIMraw® product group offers a comprehensive portfolio of glycols designed to meet different application requirements.

DEG (Diethylene Glycol)

Diethylene Glycol (DEG) is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C₄H₁₀O₃. It is a colorless, odorless, and hygroscopic liquid that is miscible with water and many organic solvents. DEG is widely used as a raw material in polyester resins, polyurethane systems, solvents, and various industrial chemical applications.

MEG (Monoethylene Glycol)

Monoethylene Glycol (MEG) is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C₂H₆O₂. It is a colorless, low-viscosity, hygroscopic liquid that is completely miscible with water and many organic solvents. MEG is widely used in polyester resins, polyester polyols, antifreeze formulations, heat transfer fluids, and many other industrial applications.

1-4-Bütandiol

1,4-Butanediol (1,4-BDO) is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C₄H₁₀O₂. It is a colorless, viscous diol widely used in industrial applications. It serves as an important intermediate raw material for polyurethane elastomers, polyester resins, engineering plastics, and other specialty chemical applications.

DPG (Dipropylene Glycol)

Dipropylene Glycol (DPG) is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C₆H₁₄O₃. It is a colorless, viscous liquid that is miscible with water and many organic solvents. DPG is used in resin systems, solvent formulations, and a variety of industrial chemical processes.

MPG (Monopropylene Glycol)

Monopropylene Glycol (MPG) is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C₃H₈O₂. It is a colorless, low-viscosity, hygroscopic liquid that is completely miscible with water. MPG is widely used in industrial processes, including resin systems, heat transfer fluids, and various chemical formulations.

1,6-Hexanediol

1,6-Hexanediol is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C₆H₁₄O₂. It is an important diol that contributes to the production of durable polymer structures and is used in polyurethane systems, polyester resins, and coating applications.

TMP

Trimethylolpropane (TMP) is a multifunctional alcohol containing three hydroxyl groups. It is widely used as a crosslinking building block in various polymer systems, including polyurethane systems, polyester resins, and alkyd resins.

NPG

Neopentyl Glycol (NPG) is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C₅H₁₂O₂. It is an important diol widely used in polyester resins, powder coatings, and coating systems that require excellent chemical resistance.
