| Name | Mixed diols |
Mixed diols refer to substances in which two or more diols (usually alcohols with two hydroxyl groups, with the chemical formula C_nH_ (2n+2) O2) are mixed together. Examples of diols include ethylene glycol and propylene glycol.
Mixed diols are commonly used in industrial and chemical applications because they can simultaneously bring multiple physical and chemical properties. For example, mixed diols can be used in antifreeze, lubricants, solvents, and chemical raw materials.
