Physical and Chemical Properties | Chemical properties 3-ethoxy-1,2-propanediol (3-ethoxy-1,2-propanediol), is a short-chain aliphatic ether solvent of glycerol, a viscous, stable water-absorbing liquid, colorless and odorless, miscible with water, ethanol and a variety of organic solvents. |
Use | Uses 3-ethoxy -1, 2-propanediol is an important intermediate for the synthesis of dioxolane compounds. Dioxolane compounds are a very useful chemical product, which can be mixed with diesel as fuel. Dioxolane compounds containing 6-8 carbon atoms are excellent oxidation mixtures, and mixing with diesel fuel can be Greatly reduce the emissions of solid particles and NOx caused by diesel combustion. |
