Butyl Ether (N-)
Part No: RXSOL-19-1255-025
Mono Propylene Glycol USP/IND
Propylene glycol is a humectant, which means that it is an ingredient that is added to cosmetics to increase Moisture Retention in skin and hair. Propylene glycol is well tolerated by the skin and shouldn't cause redness or irritation.
Application
It is used to absorb extra water and maintain moisture in certain medicines, cosmetics, or food products. It is a solvent for food colors and flavors, and in the paint and plastics industries. Propylene glycol is also used to create artificial smoke or fog used in fire-fighting training and in theatrical productions.
Dosage
According to the Material Safety Data Sheet on propylene glycol, the chemical is a strong skin irritant, and has been implicated in contact dermatitis.

Contain the spill and collect the material using suitable liquid-binding/absorbent materials, such as:
-
Sand
-
Diatomite
-
Acid binders
-
Universal binders
-
Sawdust
Collect the absorbed material into suitable, properly labelled containers for appropriate disposal in accordance with applicable local regulations. Clean the affected area with water after removal of the spilled material, while preventing contaminated wash water from entering drains or watercourses.

Personal protective equipment:
General protective and hygienic measures:
The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals.
Respiratory protection: Not required.
Protection of hands: The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/ the chemical mixture. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation
Material of gloves:The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and
varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Penetration time of glove material:The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
Eye protection: Goggles recommended during refilling.
