Inhibited Glycol Liquid (Industrial Chemical) Application: Industrial

Inhibited glycol liquid refers to glycol-based solutions that contain chemical inhibitors to prevent corrosion and microbial growth. These solutions are commonly used as antifreeze and heat transfer fluids in various industrial and commercial applications, such as in heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) systems, refrigeration systems, and process cooling systems. The most commonly used glycols for this purpose are ethylene glycol (EG) and propylene glycol (PG). The inhibitors added to these glycol solutions help protect the metal surfaces of the equipment and components that come in contact with the fluid. Corrosion inhibitors form a protective layer on the metal surfaces, preventing corrosion and prolonging the life of the system. The primary purposes and benefits of using inhibited glycol liquids include: 1. Freeze Protection: Inhibited glycol solutions are used to lower the freezing point of the fluid, allowing the system to operate at sub-zero temperatures without freezing. 2. Burst Protection: By preventing freezing, inhibited glycols protect pipes, pumps, and other components from bursting due to the expansion of frozen fluid. 3. Heat Transfer: Inhibited glycol solutions are effective heat transfer fluids, enabling efficient heat exchange in systems. 4. Corrosion Prevention: The inhibitors in the glycol solution help protect the metal surfaces from corrosion, preventing system failures and leaks. 5. Microbial Growth Prevention: Inhibited glycols contain biocides or antimicrobial agents that inhibit the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria,
