01
Overview
Propylene glycol is a clear, colorless, viscous liquid used in a wide range of applications including as a humectant, solvent, antifreeze, and plasticizer. It is generally recognized as safe for human consumption at low levels but can be toxic if consumed excessively over short periods of time. It has low acute toxicity compared to ethylene glycol but should still be handled according to safety guidelines due to its potential effects at high doses or prolonged exposure.
