Ethylene glycol is a chemical commonly used in many commercial and industrial applications including antifreeze and coolant. Ethylene glycol helps keep your car’s engine from freezing in the winter and acts as a coolant to reduce overheating in the summer. Other important uses of ethylene glycol include heat transfer fluids used as industrial coolants for gas compressors, heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning systems, and ice skating rinks.

Ethylene glycol is also used as a raw material in the production of a wide range of products including polyester fibers for clothes, upholstery, carpet and pillows; fiberglass used in products such as jet skis, bathtubs, and bowling balls; and polyethylene terephthalate resin used in packaging film and bottles. Many of these products are energy saving and cost efficient as well as recyclable.

Frequently Asked Questions.

1. How is ethylene glycol used?

Ethylene glycol is primarily used as an antifreeze and coolant in engines, as well as in industrial systems like HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) and chiller units to prevent freezing and overheating.

2. What are the benefits of using ethylene glycol as an antifreeze? 

Ethylene glycol has a lower freezing point than water, making it effective at preventing the freezing of liquids in cold temperatures. It also raises the boiling point, helping engines and systems operate efficiently under high temperatures.

3. Can ethylene glycol be diluted with water?

Yes, ethylene glycol can be diluted with water to create the appropriate mixture for specific temperature conditions. The mixture's ratio, known as the antifreeze-to-water ratio, should be adhered to for optimal performance.
