Size: Typically available in liquid form, with common packaging sizes ranging from 1 liter to 1,000 liters.
Grade: Industrial grade, pharmaceutical grade, and food grade options available.
Viscosity: Varies by type (e.g., ethylene glycol, propylene glycol), typically between 16-40 cP at 25°C.
Buoyancy: Slightly higher density than water, with specific gravity around 1.03-1.04 for propylene glycol.
Material: Derived from renewable sources like corn or sugarcane for biodegradable variants.
Biodegradability: Breaks down naturally under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, with degradation rates depending on environmental factors.
Flash Point: Ranges between 99-107°C for propylene glycol, making it less flammable.
Freezing Point: Depends on concentration; propylene glycol solutions can lower freezing points to -50°C.
pH: Neutral, typically around 7-8 for pure glycols.
Solubility: Fully miscible with water, alcohols, and many organic solvents.
