What is Glycerin and What Types Are There?
Glycerin is a triatomic alcohol, an organic compound with the formula C3H8O3. It is produced by hydrolyzing fats or synthetically from propylene. Depending on the degree of purification and its purpose, glycerin is divided into several types:
Food-grade (E422)
- A clear, colorless, thick liquid with no odor, and a sweet taste.
- Used as a food additive, humectant, emulsifier, and solvent.
- Found in the confectionery industry for making fillings, creams, fondants, marshmallows, and jellies.
- Added to non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages to provide thickness and viscosity.
- Included in dietary products as a sugar substitute.
- Characterized by a high degree of purity (at least 98%) and complies with food safety standards.
Technical (dynamic)
- Contains impurities, has a yellowish tint, and a characteristic odor.
- Obtained during biodiesel, soap, and synthetic detergent production.
- Used in the textile, leather, and paper industries.
- Acts as a component of antifreeze, brake, and hydraulic fluids.
- Serves as a raw material for producing plasticizers, emulsifiers, and explosives.
- Found in inks, paints, varnishes, and electrolytes.
Pharmaceutical (medical)
- A colorless, clear liquid with no odor or taste.
- Features a high degree of purity (at least 99.5%) and meets pharmacopoeial requirements.
- Has antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and moisturizing properties.
- Used externally for treating skin conditions, burns, frostbite, and wound care.
- Acts as a solvent, stabilizer, and emulsifier in drug manufacturing.
- Found in ointments, creams, gels, suppositories, syrups, and tinctures.
Distilled (cosmetic)
- Produced through multiple distillations of the technical form.
- A colorless, clear, thick liquid with no taste or odor.
- Contains about 99.7% glycerin.
- Used in the cosmetic industry for making creams, lotions, shampoos, and shower gels.
- Included in toothpaste and mouthwash formulations.
- Acts as a moisturizing, softening component in skincare and haircare products.
- Serves as a solvent for extracts, essential oils, and dyes in perfumes and cosmetics.
Glycerin is widely used in various industries due to its unique properties. Its versatility stems from its chemical structure and ability to dissolve in water and alcohol, forming gels and emulsions. Food-grade, technical, pharmaceutical, and distilled glycerin differ in their purification level and impurity content, which determines their areas of application. Therefore, it is extensively used in the food industry.
Special Considerations for Transporting Food-grade Glycerin and Other Liquids
Glycerin is classified as a dangerous good of Class 6 (flammable substances). Its transportation requires specialized vehicles, containers, and packaging. The following considerations must be made:
- Only specialized tank trucks or tank containers made of stainless steel or aluminum should be used.
- The containers must be sealed to prevent any leaks during transport.
- The temperature of glycerin must be maintained within certain limits to avoid overheating.
- Strict compliance with dangerous goods transportation regulations is necessary, including the required documentation.
- Drivers must undergo special training for transporting dangerous goods.
SaveProSolutions takes into account all aspects of transporting C3H8O3. We use advanced tank trucks and containers, ensuring the safety of the cargo at every stage. Dangerous goods transportation is carried out in full compliance with ADR regulations.
