Triethylene Glycol Bis(2-ethylhexanoate), with the CAS number 94 - 28 - 0, is a high - quality chemical compound. It is a clear, colorless liquid under normal conditions. The molecular formula of this product is C₂₂H₄₂O₅, and it has a molecular weight of approximately 386.57 g/mol. The product is known for its high purity and stability, which makes it suitable for a variety of applications. It has good solubility in many organic solvents, which further enhances its usability in different industries. This compound is produced under strict quality control measures to ensure its high quality and compliance with international standards.
1. **Plasticizer Industry**: Triethylene Glycol Bis(2 - ethylhexanoate) is widely used as a plasticizer in the production of plastics. It can improve the flexibility, durability, and processability of plastics. For example, in the manufacturing of PVC products, adding this compound can reduce the brittleness of PVC and make it more suitable for applications such as cable insulation, vinyl flooring, and plastic films.
2. **Cosmetics and Personal Care Products**: Due to its excellent solubility and skin - friendly properties, it is used in cosmetics and personal care products. It can be found in lotions, creams, and makeup products. It helps to enhance the spreadability of these products and provides a smooth and soft feel on the skin.
3. **Lubricant Additive**: In the lubricant industry, it serves as an additive. It can improve the lubricating performance of lubricants, reduce friction, and protect machinery parts from wear and tear, especially in high - performance engines and industrial equipment.
1. **Dosage**: The appropriate dosage of Triethylene Glycol Bis(2 - ethylhexanoate) depends on the specific application. In the plasticizer industry, the dosage is usually in the range of 5% - 20% of the total plastic formulation. In cosmetics, the content is relatively lower, typically around 1% - 5%.
2. **Mixing**: When using it as a plasticizer, it should be thoroughly mixed with the plastic resin during the processing stage. For cosmetics, it can be added during the emulsification or blending process. Care should be taken to ensure uniform mixing to achieve the best performance.
3. **Safety Precautions**: When handling this product, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and goggles should be worn. It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well - ventilated place, away from heat sources and open flames.
1. **PVC Flooring Production**: A flooring manufacturer used Triethylene Glycol Bis(2 - ethylhexanoate) as a plasticizer in their PVC flooring production. They added 15% of this compound to the PVC resin. After production, the flooring showed improved flexibility and resistance to cracking. It also had better anti - static properties, making it more suitable for commercial and residential use. The product passed all relevant quality tests and was well - received in the market.
2. **Cosmetic Lotion**: A cosmetics company incorporated 3% of Triethylene Glycol Bis(2 - ethylhexanoate) into their moisturizing lotion. The lotion became more spreadable and had a smoother texture. Customers reported that their skin felt softer and more hydrated after using the lotion. The product's sales increased significantly compared to the previous formula.
3. **Industrial Lubricant**: An industrial machinery company used this compound as an additive in their lubricant for heavy - duty engines. By adding 8% of Triethylene Glycol Bis(2 - ethylhexanoate), the lubricant showed improved anti - wear performance. The engines had lower friction coefficients, which led to reduced energy consumption and longer service life of the engine parts.
