  • 40% solutions provides Antifreeze protection to -20F.

Download the Propylene Glycol Freeze Chart to determine the dilution ratio of Propylene Glycol required.

How do I check my freeze temperature of my Propylene Glycol?
There are two ways to check the freeze protection of your propylene glycol solution. The first are use nitrite residual test strips. This is more of a general range. You should not use nitrite test strips if you need the exact freeze temperature. If you require to know your exact freeze point temperature use a glycol refractometer.


What is the difference between Propylene Glycol and Inhibited Propylene Glycol?
Inhibited Propylene Glycol contains corrosion inhibitors that protect water systems from corrosion. Propylene Glycol is just pure 99.9% Propylene Glycol. If your facility requires FDA certification purchase USP grade Corrosion Inhibited Propylene Glycol.

What is HVAC grade Propylene Glycol?
Some corrosion inhibitors used in Propylene Glycol are silica based. Silica based corrosion inhibitors should not be used in HVAC systems. All Corrosion Inhibitors used in HVAC systems should organic based or phosphate based. At ChemWorld we only carry organic based corrosion inhibitors. When we refer to it as organic, we are not referring to the organic term commonly referenced in foods, but referenced towards ortho and organo phosphates.

Is Propylene Glycol safe to use in PVC systems?
This is a really good question. We have had many inquires about this. We do not have any actual field data to support this, but we have had many people calling and complaining over the past 2 years about PVC pipes and PVC elbows cracking after 4 to 10 years of service.  Considering the amount of complaints, this has raised a red flag on Propylene Glycol use in PVC systems.  If you have a refrigeration system that requires freeze protection and you have extensive PVC, you may consider using a solution of 50% glycerin mixed with water.  Also, make sure to keep the pH neutral (7.0 to 8.0) in PVC systems. If you are reading this and have any data please email it us so we can share your findings.

What is type of Propylene Glycol is used to make Boiler Antifreeze?
Most Boiler Systems use a corrosion Inhibited Propylene Glycol to increase heat transfer efficiency and to protect against freezing during down times. Typically, Propylene Glycol is diluted to 20 to 40% in boiler systems depending on your freeze point protection. the corrosion inhibitor used in Inhibited Propylene Glycol is good to a dilution of 20%.
