ethylene glycol. (glÄ«'kÃ´l') A poisonous, syrupy, colorless alcohol used as an antifreeze in heating and cooling systems that use water. Ethylene glycol is chemically like ethanol but has two hydroxyl (OH) groups instead of one. Also called glycol. Chemical formula: C2H6O2.
Propylene glycol, also called propane-1,2-diol, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C 3 H 8 O 2. It is a viscous colourless liquid which is nearly odourless but possesses a faintly sweet taste.ike ethylene glycol, propylene glycol is able to lower the freezing point of water, and so it is used as aircraft de-icing fluid. Water-propylene glycol mixtures dyed pink to indicate the mixture is relatively nontoxic are sold under the name of RV or marine antifreeze.
