    FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

    • Q:

      Is 1,3-Propanediol (CAS 504-63-2) chemically identical to Propylene Glycol (1,2-Propanediol)?

      A: No, these are structural isomers; this substance has hydroxyl groups at the 1 and 3 positions (C3H8O2), resulting in different reactivity and physical properties compared to 1,2-propanediol.
    • Q:

      What is the main industrial utility of this diol in polymer manufacturing?

      A: It serves as the essential glycol component for synthesizing Polytrimethylene Terephthalate (PTT), a polyester known for its superior stain resistance and elastic recovery in textile applications.
