Polypropylene Glycol (PPG) is a polymer with the chemical name polypropylene glycol.
Chemical Name: Polypropylene Glycol
Common Abbreviation: PPG
Chemical Structure: Polypropylene Glycol is a polymer formed by the polymerization of propylene oxide, typically represented as (CH3CHO)n(O).
Main Types: Polypropylene Glycol can be classified into different types based on its molecular weight and degree of polymerization, such as PPG-1000, PPG-2000, PPG-4000, etc. The higher the molecular weight, the greater the viscosity.

Applications:
1.PPG series is soluble in organic solvents such as toluene, ethanol, trichloroethylene, etc. PPG-200, 400, and 600 are soluble in water, exhibiting lubricating, solubilizing, defoaming, and antistatic properties. PPG-200 can be used as a dispersant for pigments.
2.In cosmetics, PPG-400 is used as a moisturizer, softener, and lubricant.
3.Used as a defoamer in coatings and hydraulic oils, as an antifoaming agent in the processing of synthetic rubber and latex, as a refrigerant and coolant in heat transfer fluids, and as a viscosity improver.
4.Used as an intermediate for esterification, etherification, and condensation reactions.
5.Used as a release agent, solubilizer, additive in synthetic oils, and in water-soluble cutting fluids, roller oils, and hydraulic oils. Also used as a high-temperature lubricant and as both internal and external lubricants for rubber.
6.PPG-2000 to 8000 exhibit excellent lubricating, anti-foaming, heat-resistant, and freeze-resistant properties.
7.PPG-3000 to 8000 are mainly used as components of composite polyether to produce polyurethane foam plastics.
8.PPG-3000 to 8000 can be used directly or after esterification to produce plasticizers and lubricants.
9.This product can be used as a base material in daily chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and oil products.
