Tri-ethylene glycol is a non-volatile, odorless, colorless, and hygroscopic liquid. Ethylene glycol is synthesized by oxidation of ethylene at high temperature in the existence of silver oxide as catalyst, after the formation of ethylene oxide, then it hydrated and produces mono, di and tri-ethylene glycol. Tri-ethylene glycol is used form manufacturing of vinyl plasticizer, as intermediate in the manufacture of polyols and polyester resins, and as a solvent in various End User Industry’s. Furthermore, Triethylene glycol is also used for moisture elimination in air conditioning systems End User Industry’s. The key role of Triethylene glycol in the petroleum industry makes it an essential Application to assess, with regard to its market at a global level.
