Diethylene glycol (Cat No.:R050848) is a clear, colorless, and odorless organic compound. It is a polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative and is commonly used as a solvent, coolant, and humectant in various industrial and consumer applications. Diethylene glycol’s hygroscopic properties make it useful in products like antifreeze and brake fluid. However, its ingestion can be toxic to humans, causing kidney and liver damage, and it has been involved in several poisoning incidents.
