Propylene glycol market poised to garner maximum revenues by 2025

Propylene glycol can be defined as viscous, colorless, hydroscopic liquid, having a low degree of toxicity with a faint sweet taste. It is the product of chemical reaction between propylene oxide and water. It has a unique property of being chemically neutral which means it does not react with other chemicals or compounds. This unique property of propylene glycol makes it useful in the production of contrasting elements such as perfumes. Owing to its hygroscopic nature it is miscible with acetone, water, and chloroform. It is used as solvent, acts as an emulsifier and excipient, holds and dissolves active ingredients equally in the medium, and reduces freezing points.
