2. Antifreeze - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifreeze

   Propylene glycol. Propylene glycol is considerably less toxic than ethylene glycol and may be labeled as "non-toxic antifreeze". It is used as antifreeze where ethylene glycol would be inappropriate, such as in food-processing systems or in water pipes in homes where incidental ingestion may be possible.

3. Glycol chiller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycol_chiller

   Propylene glycol plays a significant role in the application of a glycol chiller. For cooling in brewing, there are few processes where decreasing or maintaining temperature are important - like crash cooling a beer after fermentation, or keeping a steady temperature during fermentation (which generates heat), or cooling the wort after an ...

4. Propylene glycol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propylene_glycol

   Estimates on the prevalence of propylene glycol allergy range from 0.8% (10% propylene glycol in aqueous solution) to 3.5% (30% propylene glycol in aqueous solution). [ 70 ] [ 71 ] [ 72 ] The North American Contact Dermatitis Group (NACDG) data from 1996 to 2006 showed that the most common site for propylene glycol contact dermatitis was the ...

5. Heat-transfer fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-transfer_fluid

   Mono-ethylene glycol: Often used in a mixture with water to lower the freezing point for use in colder climates. Propylene glycol: Preferred in food production and other industries where toxicity might be a concern. Silicone oil: Used for its stability at high temperatures and electrical insulating properties.

6. Cryoprotectant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryoprotectant

   Conventional cryoprotectants are glycols (alcohols containing at least two hydroxyl groups), such as ethylene glycol [citation needed], propylene glycol and glycerol. Ethylene glycol is commonly used as automobile antifreeze; while propylene glycol has been used to reduce ice formation in ice cream.

7. Aircraft deicing fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_deicing_fluid

   Deicing a Boeing 737 with Type I fluid A layer of Type IV anti-icing fluid. Deicing fluids come in a variety of types, and are typically composed of ethylene glycol (EG) or propylene glycol (PG), along with other ingredients such as thickening agents, surfactants (wetting agents), corrosion inhibitors, colors, and UV-sensitive dye.
