Dipropylene glycol (DPG) is a widely used solvent in perfumery due to its versatility and beneficial properties.
Here are some important applications of DPG in perfumery:
Solvent : DPG is used to dissolve fragrances, including essential oils, aroma chemicals, and fragrances. It is nearly odorless and colorless, so it does not affect the scent of the perfume.
Thinner : DPG helps dilute pure fragrances, making them easier to process and dispersing the fragrance evenly.
Stabilizer : It stabilizes fragrances and ensures a consistent fragrance profile over time.
Carrier : DPG is often used as a carrier for fragrances in products such as (roll-on) perfumes, deodorants and skin care products.
DPG is popular in perfumery because of its low toxicity, minimal skin irritation and excellent solubility in both water and oil.
CAS nr. 25265-71-8
DPG is virtually harmless when taken orally, as well as when in contact with the skin or by inhalation.
It does not irritate the skin or eyes and there is no evidence that it causes allergic reactions.
