Water Chemicals India is one of the major Importers, Exporters, and Traders of a wide range of Glycerine in Odisha. It is a polyol compound that is colorless, odorless, and viscous. Glycerine is widely used in numerous pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations across Odisha and is available from us in various specifications. Due to the presence of three hydroxyl groups in its molecular structure, these products are highly soluble in water.
Glycerine is commonly called glycerol or glycerin for Odisha customers. It is a sweet-tasting alcohol that is colorless and odorless. It becomes a gummy paste when frozen, although freezing can only be achieved at very low temperatures. It melts at 18°C and boils at 290°C. Its chemical formula is C₃H₈O₃. It is miscible in water and alcohol but does not mix with oil. It is an excellent solvent – some substances dissolve better in glycerol than in water or alcohol.
Glycerine absorbs water from the air, which is why it is known as a hygroscopic substance for Odisha's industrial and pharmaceutical applications. If you leave a container of pure glycerol in open air, it will become diluted as it attracts water molecules.
The sweet-tasting alcohol is found in many skin moisturizing lotions and creams because of its water-retaining and water-absorbing capacity, which softens and smoothens the skin.
Glycerine originates from fats and oils. Molecules of fat contain glycerol. One way to extract it is through saponification – a chemical reaction involving a fat and an alkali that produces soap.
Glycerine is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid with a sweet taste and low toxicity. It is also used in the production of nitroglycerins. Our Glycerine is appreciated for its high effectiveness, purity, long shelf life, solubility in water, hygroscopic nature, and accurate composition.
