Product Overview & Quality

Product Name: Propylene glycol (Monopropylene glycol)
Brand: Kemaus (Product Code: KA-427-2)
Grade: Laboratory Grade (Lab Grade). Manufactured under Kemaus standard quality control to ensure dependable purity and chemical consistency. Excellently suited for general laboratory use, routine analytical sample preparation, formulation testing, and academic research.
Physical Properties: Clear, colorless, viscous, and nearly odorless liquid with a faintly sweet taste.
Solubility: Miscible with water, acetone, and chloroform.
Key Use: Widely utilized as a high-purity solvent and carrier for chemical reagents and botanical extractions. Commonly used in cosmetic and topical product development labs as a humectant (moisture retainer). Also functions as a non-toxic anti-freeze agent for laboratory equipment cooling systems and as a stabilizer fluid in specialized assays.

Safety & Hazards

Classification: Not classified as a hazardous substance according to GHS regulations. It features an excellent safety profile with extremely low toxicity.
Health Risks: Direct eye contact may cause minor, temporary mechanical irritation or short-term redness. Inhalation of heated mists or vapors at high levels may cause slight upper respiratory tract discomfort.
First Aid Measures: Flush eyes immediately with plenty of water. Seek medical advice if irritation develops or persists.

Handling & Storage

Storage: Hygroscopic material. It readily absorbs ambient moisture from the air. Must be stored in the original, tightly sealed Kemaus container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated space at stable room temperature (below 30 degrees Celsius). Store away from strong oxidizing agents.
Precautions: Wear standard personal protective equipment (PPE), including laboratory gloves and safety glasses. Clean up spills promptly, as the material’s viscous nature presents a physical slipping hazard on laboratory floors.
