Product Properties

POLYGLYKOL B 01/240 is a clear neutral, viscous liquid at room temperature. POLYGLYKOL B 01/240 is insoluble in water, but soluble in many polar organic solvents like acetone or methanol.
POLYGLYKOL B 01/240 can be dispersed much better in pure hydrocarbon solvents than the more hydrophilic B 11-type polyglycols. POLYGLYKOL B 01/240 displays a very low solidification point of –40°C and no evaporation loss even at temperatures as high as 100°C.
POLYGLYKOL B 01-types have a very low hygroscopy compared to other POLYGLYKOL-types.
