Monoethylene Glycol (MEG)

Monoethylene glycol (MEG), commonly referred to as ethylene glycol, is an essential raw material widely used across numerous industrial applications. It is a colourless, odourless liquid with a mildly sweet taste and is fully miscible with water, alcohols, and many organic compounds. MEG is predominantly used in the manufacture of polyester fibres and also plays a crucial role in the production of antifreeze, engine coolants, and aircraft anti-icing and de-icing fluids.

Monoethylene glycol, also known as MEG, EG, 1,2‑ethanediol, or 1,2‑dihydroxyethane, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C₂H₆O₂. It is a clear, colourless, slightly viscous liquid with a sweet taste and virtually no odour. Fully miscible with water, alcohols, and many organic solvents, monoethylene glycol is widely used in industry, particularly in the manufacture of polyester fibres, as well as in the formulation of antifreeze, coolants, and aircraft anti‑icing and de‑icing fluids.
