Ethyl Glycol

Ethyl Glycol, also known as 2-Ethoxyethanol, is a clear, colorless liquid solvent commonly used in the formulation of cleaning products, degreasers, and specialty detergents. It offers powerful solvency, making it effective at breaking down oils, grease, and residues in both household and industrial settings. Thanks to its moderate evaporation rate and excellent miscibility with water and other solvents, Ethyl Glycol allows for the creation of fast-acting, streak-free cleaning solutions.

At System Star Industrial Products, we supply high-purity Ethyl Glycol that meets the quality needs of soap and detergent manufacturers across East Africa. Our product is ideal for blending into formulations where strong cleaning power and smooth application are essential. Whether used in glass cleaners, multi-surface sprays, or heavy-duty degreasers, our Ethyl Glycol ensures reliable and efficient performance.

Applications

  • Surface Cleaners – To begin with, it enhances cleaning power in sprays for glass, metal, and plastic surfaces.

    Degreasers – In addition, formulators use it to dissolve oils and industrial residues in heavy-duty cleaners.

    Solvent for Dyes and Fragrances – Furthermore, it helps evenly distribute colorants and scents in detergent formulations.

    Multi-Purpose Cleaners – At the same time, it acts as a carrier solvent in all-purpose household cleaning agents.

    Paint and Ink Removers – Finally, manufacturers employ it in specialty cleaning solutions to remove paints and inks effectively.
