Mono propylene Glycol (MPG) is a derivative of Propylene Oxide (PO) and is produced in a twostep process. The first step is the reaction of PO with water into a mixture of MPG and Di-propylene Glycol (DPG) and the second step is the distillation and purification of the mixture into its two separate components (MPG and DPG) with MPG being the main component.

MPG is in two different qualities: the industrial grade and Pharmacopoeia (USP) grade, which is produced applying Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) as described for pharmaceutical excipients.

MPG is a colorless, viscous and odorless liquid. It is highly hygroscopic and miscible in all ratios with water, alcohols, esters, ketones and amines. It has limited miscibility with halogenated hydrocarbons and is not miscible with aliphatic hydrocarbons.

 

Application:

The most important end use of MPG industrial grade is in the production of unsaturated polyester resins, which, in turn, are used to make everyday items such as bath tubs, small boats and water/chemical tanks and pipes. Other end use application areas are paints and coatings; airplane de-icers or anti-icers; antifreeze and industrial coolants; detergents; hydraulic fluids.

Mono propylene glycol USP grade is used in food, beverage and animal feed, in pharmaceuticals as an excipient (inactive ingredient or carrier in a pharmaceutical product), in cosmetics and personal care products. The application of MPG USP for direct injections into the blood system is not allowed. Likewise, it is not for use in cat food because of a species-specific effect on blood cells of cats. Use of MPG USP in tobacco applications and electronic cigarettes is not supported.

For both MPG industrial and MPG USP grades, the use in theatrical fogs and artificial smoke generation is also not supported.

 

Health, Safety and Environmental Considerations:

MPG has low acute toxicity by oral, dermal or inhalation routes. Mono propylene Glycol is non-irritating to skin and eyes from animal studies. Some mild irritation effects were observed with human volunteers, but will not trigger classification. There is low concern for skin sensitization and there are no reports of respiratory sensitization although there is extensive exposure to this substance given the wide spectrum of professional and consumer uses. MPG is not considered to be carcinogenic or genotoxic, nor does it have effects on fertility or reproduction.

 

Storage and Handling:

MPG is transported by tank truck and vessel as bulk and packaged (drums, intermediate bulk containers (IBC) products.

Mono propylene Glycol USP grade needs specific attention regarding product quality and purity. Therefore, dedicated equipment and specific cleaning procedures as well as stringent controls throughout the whole supply chain are necessary.

MPG is hygroscopic and requires storage equipped with drying devices to protect the product from humidity. Nitrogen blanketing compatible to USP requirements is the preferred means of keeping the product dry and ensuring its shelf life. Storage temperature should not exceed 104°F /40°C and Mono propylene Glycol should not be stored in direct sunlight. In cold climates, tank heating devices and insulation must be installed.
