POLYGLYKOL PR 600

Composition of Polyglykol PR 600:
Polyalkylenglycol
H(OCH2CH2)n(OCHCH3CH2) (OCH2CH2)m OH
n+m = 13

CAS Number: 9003-11-6

Product properties of Polyglykol PR 600:
Polyglykol PR 600 is a clear neutral liquid at room temperature. 
Polyglykol PR 600 can be supplied in tank trucks or in steel drums. 

Its two hydroxy end groups as well as its ether groups mainly control the physical and chemical properties of Polyglykol PR 600. 
Therefore Polyglykol PR 600 is soluble in water and polar organic solvents like aceton or methanol. 

Polyglykol PR 600 is insoluble in pure hydrocarbons. 
Polyglykol PR 600 displays typical chemical reactions of alcohols/diols. 
The solidification point, of Polyglykol PR 600 is about 20 °C lower than that of the polyethylene glycol 600.
 
This simplifies handling of Polyglykol PR 600 at low temperatures. 
Besides the lower solidification point properties in general are very similar to polyethylene glycol 600.
