Dipropylene Glycol Ethyl Ether (DPGEE) [Ethyl DIPROXITOL] Product Stewardship Summary December 2017
DiPropylene Glycol Ethyl Ether (DPGEE) [Ethyl DIPROXITOL] Product Stewardship Summary December 2017 DiPropylene Glycol Ethyl Ether (DPGEE) [Ethyl DIPROXITOL] Product Stewardship Summary (CAS number 30025-38-8) Chemical Formula for DPGEE C8H18 O3 What is DPGEE? DPGEE is a glycol ether based on Propylene oxide and ethanol. It is a speciality solvent having a bi- functional nature (ether-alcohol). It is a clear liquid with an ethereal odour. The Shell Chemicals range of Propylene oxide-based glycol ethers are sold under the trade name PROXITOL. How is DPGEE Used? It is used as an intermediate and in formulations in industrial, professional or consumer applications, mainly in surface coatings and printing inks and paints, cleaners, agrochemical or de-icing/anti-icing formulations. Health, Safety and Environmental Considerations DPGEE is flammable liquids with a flashpoint of 180 0F/82 0C. DPGEE is an isomer mix, of which the main component is 1-Ethoxypropanol-2 (typically 98% or more). Shell PROXITOLs are not classified as carcinogens or mutagens, are not expected to cause cancer in humans, nor do they impair fertility or damage the developing foetus. DPGEE is of low toxicity towards aquatic organisms. They are completely miscible with water, biodegradable and not expected to bio-accumulate. Storing and Transporting DPGEE DPGEE is transported by tank truck, rail car and vessel, primarily in bulk quantities, but also as packed product. Due to its flammability, they are classified as hazardous for transport under transport regulations. Glycol Ethers should be stored at ambient temperatures away from sources of ignition and substances with oxidising or corrosive properties. -

Comparison of Ethylene Glycol and Propylene Glycol Based Aircraft
Comparison of Ethylene Glycol- and Propylene Glycol-Based Aircraft Deicing Fluids Agenda • Executive Summary • Chemistry • Operational Properties (for the aircraft) o Freezing Point (efficiency) o Lowest Operational Use Temperature o Holdover Time and Allowance Times • Mammalian Toxicity o Operator Precautions • Environmental Toxicity o Aquatic Toxicity o Air Emissions / Vapor Pressure o Biodegradation Executive Summary • Both ethylene glycol- (EG) and propylene glycol- (PG) based aircraft deicing fluids (ADFs) consist of the base glycol plus water and additives • Operationally, EG-based fluids perform better: • Less EG is required to produce the same freezing point than PG. • Lower viscosity means EG-based fluids provide better aerodynamic performance at colder temperatures. • As a result, EG-based fluids have superior Holdover Times (HOTs) compared to PG-based fluids, as presented by the SAE G-12 HOT Committee in May 2017. • Mammalian Toxicity • EG and PG both have low to moderate acute toxicity. • If ingested in a large, single oral dose, EG is more toxic to mammals than PG. • Oral dosing is an unlikely route of exposure during deicing. • History in Canada, where EG fluids have been used safely for many years, confirms operator procedures can appropriately manage this risk. Executive Summary • Environmental Properties • EG-based fluids in concentrated form generally demonstrate better aquatic toxicity than PG-based fluids; however, both are non-toxic. • Mixtures of EG-based ADFs exhibit less air emissions than PG based fluids.1 • Both EG and PG are biodegradable in the environment and neither bio accumulates. • PG has higher Theoretical Oxygen Demand and requires a higher usage concentration than PG fluids. -

PROPYLENE GLYCOL from GLYCERIN (December 2007)
Abstract Process Economics Program Report 262 PROPYLENE GLYCOL FROM GLYCERIN (December 2007) A variety of economic, environmental and technical factors have encouraged industry attention on producing industrial chemicals from bio-feedstocks, rather than from crude oil derivatives. One such example is producing propylene glycol (PG) from glycerine (GLY), rather than the conventional routes starting with propylene monomer. Propylene glycol has historically been produced in commercial quantities either via the chlorohydrin process or by peroxidation, both using propylene monomer as the starting material. Both routes produce propylene oxide (PO) as an intermediate chemical, which is then hydrated to propylene glycol. The peroxidation routes have evolved from those processes (Arco Chem/Lyondell, Repsol, Shell, BASF) producing a significant amount of by-product (PO/styrene monomer, PO/tertiary butyl alcohol, PO/ methyl tertiary butyl ether), to more recent processes developed by Solvay, Dow and BASF that eliminate the by-product by using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizing agent. As of 2007, Degussa has announced the design and construction of a commercial scale PG plant using glycerine as its feedstock. Other companies have announced processes to use glycerine to produce polyols and epichlorohydrin. The combination of high crude oil prices and governmental subsidies to produce biofuels (bio-ethanol, bio-diesel) have resulted in an enormous increase in bio-diesel production, resulting in a glut of by-product glycerine (which represents 10% of biodiesel mass). As a result, glycerine market prices have fallen from $US 2/kg down to fuel value ($US 200/mt), or less. The low cost of glycerine combined with the high price of PG offers an opportunity to develop industrial scale processes converting glycerine to propylene glycol. -

In fully formulated water-based systems, however, changing the solvent system to meet environmental regulations has wide ranging effects on viscosity, surface defects, film shrinkage, adhesion, and durability. Formulators often adjust paint viscosity by balancing the levels of cosolvents, surfactants, and rheology modifiers. Reformulating with non-HAPs solvents such as propylene oxide-based glycol ethers (PG-glycol ethers) helps reduce volah1e organic content WOC) to meet environmental compliance and eliminates HAPs reporting requirements. When replacing ethylene oxide-based glycol ethers (EG-glycol ethers) with their PG-glycol ethers, reformulation seems simple enough, particularly if evaporation rates and solubility parameters are matched.

Reticulocytosis in Screen-Printing Workers Exposed to 2
Song et al. Annals of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (2017) 29:54 DOI 10.1186/s40557-017-0210-z RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Reticulocytosis in screen-printing workers exposed to 2-butoxyethanol and 2- ethoxyethanol Seng-Ho Song, Seong-Kyu Kang*, Won-Jun Choi, Kyeong Min Kwak, Dong-Hoon Lee, Dyuk-Yoon Kang and Sang-Ha Lee Abstract Background: Studies on the hematologic toxicity of ethylene glycol ethers in humans are limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the association between exposure to solvents (containing 2-butoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol) and hematological effects. Methods: Thirty-four screen-printing workers who were exposed to 2-butoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol and 37 non- exposed clerical workers were selected using data from the health care facilities that provided regular health screening services. Student’s t-tests and Pearson’s chi-square tests were used to compare differences in hematological parameters between the exposed and the control groups. A multivariate analysis was performed using the multiple logistic regression models to adjust for other variables. Results: The chi-square test showed the reticulocyte percentages and corrected reticulocyte counts to be significantly higher in the exposed group. The t-tests showed a significant increase in white blood cell counts, reticulocyte percentages, and corrected reticulocyte count (i.e., reticulocyte index) in the exposed group, with p-values of 0.002, 0.004, and 0.002, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed the odds ratio for the corrected reticulocyte counts to be 16.30 for the exposed group, when compared with that of the control group. Conclusions: Exposure to 2-butoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol was significantly associated with reticulocytosis, necessitating the implementation of preventive measures for workers prone to occupational exposure to ethylene glycol ethers.
