Pentylene Glycol

Pentylene Glycol, also known as Pentylene Glycol or Pentylene Glycol, is a synthetic organic compound that is widely used in the cosmetic and chemical industries. It is an artificially created pure polyol, i.e. a substance containing more than one hydroxyl group that have the ability to bind water. Its production is by condensation of acetylene and formaldehyde. Pentylene Glycol is a colorless, viscous liquid with a slightly sweet taste and virtually no odor. It has good water solubility and a low melting point, making it an ideal ingredient for a wide range of products.

One of the main uses of Pentylene Glycol is in the cosmetics industry, where it is often found in many skin care products such as creams, serums, toners, cleansing lotions or make-up. Its ability to bind and retain water contributes greatly to the hydration and moisture retention of the skin. Pentylene Glycol also provides antimicrobial properties that help protect these products from contamination by bacteria and fungi, increasing their shelf life. Outside of the cosmetic industry, it is also used as a solvent in some pharmaceuticals, dyes and food additives. Finally, it is also included in some industrial and household cleaners for its surface stress-reducing effects, which enhances the ability of cleaning agents to remove contaminants.
