Tri Ethylene Glycol

High-purity specifications viscous liquid. Big drum sealed packing to maintain its quality to meet
Category

Triethylene Glycol (TEG) is a colorless liquid with a mild odor and is denser than water. It is a member of a series of dihydroxyalcohols. TEG's primary applications are derived from its ability to absorb moisture. It is utilized as a dehydrating agent in natural gas pipelines to eliminate water from the gas before reusing it in the system. Triethylene glycol also has mild disinfectant qualities and, when volatised, is used as an air disinfectant for virus and bacteria control.

Application
   Application:
  • Triethylene glycol is a solvent prepared from ethylene oxide and ethylene glycol.
  • Triethylene glycol can be used:
  • To prepare fatty acid gelators, which are used to gelate various edible and vegetable oils.
  • As a solvent to prepare superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for in situ protein purification.
  • As an absorbent agent in the subsea natural gas dehydration process.
  • Triethylene glycol is used as a plasticizer, as an additive for hydraulic fluids and brake fluids, and as a disinfectant. It is an active component of certain pigments, printing dyes, inks and paste.
  • It finds application as a liquid desiccant and used in the dehydration of natural gas, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and air conditioning systems.
  • It plays as an important role in anti-freeze and de-icing products, cleaning and furnishing care products, lubricant and greases.

Precautionary statements  
Prevention:
Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
Response:
Get medical advice/ attention if you feel unwell.
Storage:
Store in accordance with local regulations.
Other hazards  None known.

In case of eye contact Rinse with plenty of water. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
In case of skin contact Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
If swallowed Rinse mouth. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. Contact the Poison's Information Centre (eg Australia 13 1126; New Zealand 0800 764 766).
If inhaled Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Protection of first-aiders In event of emergency assess the danger before taking action. Do not put yourself at risk of injury. If in doubt, contact emergency responders. Use personal protective equipment as required.
Notes to physician Treat symptomatically.
Most important  symptoms and effects,  both acute and delaye  See Section 11 for more detailed information on health effects and symptoms.

Suitable extinguishing media  Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Unsuitable extinguishing media None known.
Specific hazards during firefighting Not flammable or combustible.
Hazardous combustion products Decomposition products may include the following materials: Carbon oxides
Special Protective Equipment for firefighters  Use personal protective equipment.
Specific extinguishing methods Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

 

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.
Enviromental Precaution No special environmental precautions required.
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up 
Stop leak if safe to do so. Contain spillage, and then collect with non- combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13). Flush away traces with water. For large spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain material to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway.

Advice on safe handling For personal protection see section 8. Wash hands after handling.
Conditions for safe storage Keep out of reach of children. Keep container tightly closed. Store in suitable labelled containers.
Suitable material Keep in properly labelled containers.
