Product Code: RXSOL-19-1586-210

Categories: Solvent Chemicals-19
Product Short Description: Mono Propylene Glycol USP/IND
Product Description:

Propylene glycol is a humectant, which means that it is an ingredient that is added to cosmetics to increase Moisture Retention in skin and hair. Propylene glycol is well tolerated by the skin and shouldn't cause redness or irritation.

Product Application:

It is used to absorb extra water and maintain moisture in certain medicines, cosmetics, or food products. It is a solvent for food colors and flavors, and in the paint and plastics industries. Propylene glycol is also used to create artificial smoke or fog used in fire-fighting training and in theatrical productions.

Product Dose:

According to the Material Safety Data Sheet on propylene glycol, the chemical is a strong skin irritant, and has been implicated in contact dermatitis. 

Product Note:

Propylene glycol is tolerated well by the skin and shouldn't cause redness or irritation. Propylene glycol is a penetration-enhancing humectant.
 

Propylene Glycol USP is a widely used ingredient in pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, personal care, flavors and animal feed applications; an overview of typical uses of Propylene Glycol USP as below.It must be emphasized that it is the user’s responsibility to consult area and country-specific regulations for details of approved use.

  1. Pharmaceuticals - Solvent for active ingredients in oral, and topical products.
     
  2. Cosmetics & Personal Care - Solvent, coupling agent, carrier, emulsion stabilizer, softening agent, viscosity modifier and humectant in many types of cosmetics and personal care products such as skincare, sun care, shampoo, bath/shower products, toothpastes, mouthwashes, shaving products and baby care products.
     
  3. Flavors & Fragrances - Solvent and extraction solvent of flavors and fragrances for applications in food, beverages, perfumes and cosmetics.
     
  4. Food - Various applications as a direct food additive (E 1520) such as a carrier or carrier solvent for colors, emulsifiers, antioxidants and enzymes (in Europe with maximum 1 g/kg in human foodstuffs), and humectant and stabilizer in fruits, vegetables and bakery goods (except in Europe). Propylene Glycol USP is also applied in indirect contact food applications, such as a low temperature heat-transfer fluid in the brewing, dairy and ice cream industries and for food storage facilities, an equipment cleaner fluid or a solvent for printing inks.
     
  5. Pet foods & Animal Feed - Humectant, emulsifier, preservative, solvent foradditives, energy source and aid for prevention of ketosis (acetonemia) in dairycattle. In EMEA a specific tailor made Propylene Glycol Animal Feed is offered forthis application.
Remarks:

Propylene Glycol USP,  is a high-purity grade of monopropylene glycol for use in pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, personal care, flavor and fragrance, plus a variety of other applications.It is a light, transparent liquid, almost odorless and with low volatility. It is completely soluble in water and in most organic solvents. In addition, all propylene glycols have a great capacity to hold and dissolve active ingredients equally which allows them to serve as carriers of aromas, flavors, dyes and moisture. 

Propylene Glycol USP is tested for compliance with the current USP, EP, and Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP) specifications plus the Food Chemical Codex (FCC); it also complies with the Brazilian Pharmacopoeia, and other pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food regulations in the global markets where it is sold. It is listed by the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association as an approved ingredient in cosmetics and its use is reviewed by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR). Propylene Glycol USP is Kosher certified and complies with Halal requirements.

Applications of Monopropylene Glycol (MPG)

Monopropylene Glycol (MPG) is a versatile chemical widely used across multiple industries due to its properties as a solvent, humectant, and antifreeze agent. Below is an overview of its key applications:

1. Food and Beverage Industry

  • Food Additive: MPG is approved for use as a food additive and functions as a humectant, solvent, and preservative. It helps retain moisture in products such as baked goods, confectionery, and beverages.
  • Flavor and Color Carrier: It acts as a carrier for flavors, extracts, and food colorings, ensuring uniform distribution and product stability, particularly in soft drinks and confectionery.

2. Pharmaceutical and Medical Industry

  • Solvent in Medicines: MPG is commonly used to dissolve active pharmaceutical ingredients in syrups, oral solutions, and injectable formulations, ensuring effective drug delivery.
  • Humectant in Topical Products: It is included in creams, ointments, and lotions to retain moisture and enhance product texture and performance.
  • Low Toxicity: Due to its relatively low toxicity, MPG is suitable for both ingestible and topical medical applications.

3. Cosmetics and Personal Care Industry

  • Moisturizer and Humectant: MPG is widely used in personal care products such as lotions, shampoos, and deodorants to maintain moisture and formulation stability.
  • Fragrance Solvent: It acts as a solvent for perfumes and fragrances, enabling consistent scent distribution.
  • Skin and Hair Care: Commonly found in conditioners, creams, and gels, where it improves hydration and product feel.

4. Automotive and Industrial Applications

  • Antifreeze and Coolant: MPG is used in cooling systems to prevent freezing and overheating, offering a less toxic alternative to ethylene glycol.
  • Heat Transfer Fluid: It is utilized in HVAC systems, refrigeration, and solar energy applications due to its thermal stability and high boiling point.
  • De-icing Applications: MPG lowers the freezing point of water, making it effective in de-icing solutions for vehicles and aircraft.

5. Paints, Coatings, and Inks

  • Solvent in Coatings: MPG is used in water-based paints and coatings to improve flow, application, and uniform drying.
  • Printing Inks: It helps maintain consistent viscosity and enhances print quality.

6. Tobacco and E-Liquid Industry

  • E-Liquids: MPG serves as a carrier for nicotine and flavorings in e-cigarette liquids, producing vapor upon heating.
  • Tobacco Processing: It acts as a humectant to retain moisture and prevent tobacco products from drying out.

7. Textile and Leather Industry

  • Textile Finishing: MPG is used to improve softness and moisture retention in fabrics.
  • Leather Processing: It helps condition leather, preventing cracking and drying during manufacturing.

8. Agricultural Industry

  • Agrochemical Solvent: MPG acts as a solvent and carrier in pesticide and herbicide formulations, improving effectiveness.
  • Animal Feed Additive: It is used as a humectant and preservative to maintain feed quality and moisture content.

9. Construction Industry

  • Concrete Additives: MPG enhances workability, reduces cracking, and improves uniform distribution of additives in concrete.
  • Sealants and Coatings: It is used in protective coatings and sealants due to its stability and moisture resistance.

10. Laboratory and Biotech Applications

  • Chemical Processing: MPG is widely used as a solvent in laboratory and industrial chemical processes.
  • Biological Preservation: It helps stabilize biological samples and maintain them in aqueous environments, especially in research applications.

Storage and Handling :

Propylene Glycol USP is stable for at least two years when stored at ambient temperatures in closed containers and away from sunlight and other sources of UV light.Where product heating is utilized (i.e. for bulk storage and/or transport containers) the product temperature should be controlled to prevent unintentional overheating over extended periods as this may potentially lead to accelerated oxidative degradation of the product.
