[Chemical Knowledge]:Ethylene glycol and isopropanol: two alcohols commonly used in the chemical industry

Ethylene glycol and isopropanol are two kinds of alcohol compounds commonly used in the field of chemical industry, they have a wide range of applications in industrial production. This article will give you a detailed description of the difference between ethylene glycol and isopropanol and its application in the chemical industry.

let us understand the basic properties of ethylene glycol and isopropyl alcohol. Ethylene glycol, chemical formula C2H6O2, is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid with good solubility and stability. It is mainly used as solvent, antifreeze and raw materials, and is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, plastic and other fields. Isopropyl alcohol, the chemical formula C3H8O, is a flammable, volatile liquid with a special smell. It is commonly used as a solvent, degreaser and disinfectant, and has important uses in industries such as paints and cleaners.

we compare the application of ethylene glycol and isopropanol in the chemical industry. As a common solvent and antifreeze, ethylene glycol is widely used in lubricating oil, pharmaceutical, synthetic resin and other fields. It is also an important raw material for oil and gas processing and is used to produce products such as polyester fibers, coatings and pigments. Isopropyl alcohol is mainly used for the preparation of acetone, acrylic acid and acrolein and other chemical products, but also can be used as a cleaning agent and disinfectant. In addition, ethylene glycol and isopropanol can also be used as important intermediates in chemical industry for the synthesis of more kinds of organic compounds.

In general, ethylene glycol and isopropanol have important applications in the chemical industry, but their properties and uses are different. In actual production, we need to select the appropriate alcohol compounds according to the specific needs to ensure the smooth progress of the production process. I hope that through the introduction of this article, you can have a more comprehensive understanding of ethylene glycol and isopropyl alcohol, and more handy in practical applications.
