Tetrapropylene glycol(Cat No.:M016562) is a synthetic, low-volatility liquid primarily used as a solvent and intermediate in the production of polyurethane foams and other polymers. It is derived through the polymerization of propylene oxide, resulting in a glycol with four propylene groups. This structure endows it with excellent solvency and hygroscopic properties, making it suitable for use in formulations requiring moisture retention and compatibility with various chemical ingredients. Its applications extend beyond industrial uses to personal care products, where it serves as a solvent, humectant, and skin-conditioning agent, enhancing the texture and stability of cosmetic products.
