Polypropylene Glycol 1000 (PPG 1000)

Description

What is Polypropylene Glycol 1000 (PPG 1000)?

Polypropylene Glycol 1000 (PPG 1000) is a propylene oxide-based polyether polyol widely used in the manufacturing of polyurethane pre-polymers, adhesives, coatings, lubricants, and sealants. It is a BHT-free formulation with low acidity levels, making it suitable for high-performance industrial and commercial applications. PPG 1000 is a clear, transparent, and viscous liquid that blends easily with other polyether polyols, diols, and triols to achieve specific performance characteristics.

Due to its versatility, PPG 1000 has become a preferred choice in industries ranging from polyurethane systems to lubricants, inks, coatings, and plasticizers, delivering efficiency, stability, and eco-friendly performance.
