Poly Propylene Glycol (PPG)

Advanced Liquid Blend with Poly Propylene Glycol (PPG) and CAS 25322-69-4

This product is a clear, amber liquid characterized by a mild odor. It is formulated as a blend, containing Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), .alpha.-[2-[tris(1-phenylethyl)phenyl]methyl]-.omega.-hydroxy- (CAS 25322-69-4) in concentrations of 10-25%, alongside Poly(propylene glycol) monobutyl ether (PPG) at 1-5%. Exhibiting a flash point above 93°C (199.4°F) and a density between 0.99 and 1.01 at 25°C, it is a combustible yet stable substance under recommended storage conditions. Its negligible solubility and high boiling point over 200°C further define its physical characteristics.
