Description
Ethylene glycol is a technical-grade diol supplied at minimum 98 % purity for laboratory and process use. Its empirical formula is C₂H₆O₂, with a molar mass of 62,07 g/mol, density 1,11 g/cm³, flash point 111 °C and boiling point 197 to 198 °C. The product is identified by CAS number 107-21-1 and EG nr. 203-473-3 As a polar, high-boiling solvent and heat-transfer medium component, technical ethylene glycol is applied in synthesis work-up, cold-bath formulations, antifreeze-type mixtures and general laboratory solvent duties where a min. 98 % techn. grade is appropriate. This material from manufacturer Carl ROTH offers a practical litre pack for benches that require ready volumes without unnecessary oversizing. Physical constants such as density and boiling range support straightforward handling calculations and process planning. Use is intended for trained laboratory personnel following applicable safety guidance for glycols. The combination of defined purity, clear physicochemical data and convenient plastic packaging makes it a standard option within the broader chemicals portfolio for routine technical applications.
This article belongs on Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), in Solvents.

Questions about Ethylene glycol, min. 98 %, techn., 1 l, plastic
What is this article?
Ethylene glycol, min. 98 %, techn., 1 l, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
An analytical-grade solvent, often marked p.a., has impurity limits tight enough for classical analysis and for preparing reagents. It is not automatically low enough in UV absorbance for HPLC, and it is not dry enough for a water-sensitive reaction. The grade is the purchase.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Solvents. The sub-category is Analytical grade solvents (p.a.). The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
