Refined Glycerine Applications
Glycerol is used in medical, pharmaceutical, and personal care preparations, often as a means of improving smoothness, providing lubrication, and as a humectant. Ichthyosis and xerosis have been relieved by the topical use of glycerin. Besides, there is still much more about the use of this refined glycerine.
Glycerine is used in foods and beverages to keep the food moist, make it sweet, serve as a solvent, and be used as a food preservative. It is used as a filler in commercial low-fat foods such as cookies and a thickening agent in food products such as liqueurs. Additionally, glycerine may be used as a sugar substitute. Bacteria do not feed glycerine, hence it does not cause cavities.
Intermediate Chemicals
Glycerine is used in the production of nitroglycerine for explosives and propellants. Moreover, it can produce allyl iodide with the addition of phosphorus and iodine. They are commonly applied as polymers, preservatives, organometallic catalysts, and pharmaceuticals, etc.
Solvent
Glycerine can form strong hydrogen bonds with water, so glycerol-water bonds are superior to water-water hydrogen bonds. Therefore, the formation of ice is hindered unless the temperature is very low. This antifreeze is used in automobiles because glycerine has low toxicity despite being restored by ethylene glycol.
Pharmaceuticals Industry
Glycerine is used to improve smoothness and lubricity and maintain moisture. It is widely used in a variety of medical and pharmaceutical products, such as cough syrup and personal care products, such as mouthwashes. It is also a component of glycerine soap, which adds essential oils for fragrance. Because of the water-retaining properties of glycerine, soap is used by people with sensitive skin.
