용도
Next to water, propylene glycol is the most common moisturecarrying vehicle used in cosmetic formulations. It has better skin permeation than glycerin, and it also gives a pleasant feel with less greasiness than glycerin. Propylene glycol is used as a humectant because it absorbs water from the air. It also serves as a solvent for anti-oxidants and preservatives. In addition, it has preservative properties against bacteria and fungi when used in concentrations of 16 percent or higher. There is a concern that propylene glycol is an irritant at high concentrations, though it appears to be quite safe at usage levels under 5 percent.

정의

Indications
Propylene glycol solution (40% to 60%, v/vCH2CH[OH]CH2OH, propylene glycol)
applied to the skin under plastic occlusion hydrates the skin and causes desquamation
of scales. Propylene glycol, isotonic in 2% concentration, is a widely used vehicle
in dermatologic preparations. Hydroalcoholic gels containing propylene glycol or
other substances augment the keratolytic action of salicylic acid. Keralyt gel consists
of 6% salicylic acid, 19.4% alcohol, hydroxypropylcellulose, propylene glycol, and water and is an extremely effective keratolytic agent. Overnight occlusion is used
nightly until improvement is evident, at which time the frequency of therapy can
be decreased to every third night or once weekly. This therapy is well tolerated,
is usually nonirritating, and has been most successful in patients with X-linked
ichthyosis vulgaris. Burning and stinging may occur when applied to damaged skin.
Patients with other abnormalities of keratinization with hyperkeratosis, scaling, and
dryness may also benefit.

생산 방법
Propylene glycol generally is synthesized commercially by
starting with propylene, converting to the chlorohydrin, and
hydrolyzing to propylene oxide, which is then hydrolyzed
to propylene glycol. It can also be prepared by other
methods.

제조 방법
Manufactured by treating propylene with chlorinated water to form the chlorohydrin, which is converted to the glycol by
treatment with sodium carbonate solution. It is also prepared by heating glycerol with sodium hydroxide.

Carcinogenicity
Dewhurst et al. and
Baldwin et al. in studies on the carcinogenicity of
other chemicals used propylene glycol as the solvent. As a
result they tested propylene glycol alone for carcinogenic
activity in rats and mice. Dewhurst et al. used a single
injection of 0.2 mL, whereas Baldwin et al. gave rats
and mice three to five subcutaneous injections, amount not
specified. In neither case were tumors observed during a
period of about a year or 2 years .
Wallenious and Lecholm applied propylene glycol
to the skin of rats three times a week for 14 months but found
no tumor formation. Stenback and Shubik confirmed
these findings when they applied propylene glycol at undiluted
strength and as a 50 and 10% solution in acetone to the
skin of mice during their lifetimes.
No tumors have been reported in the lifetime dietary
feeding studies . In fact, Gaunt et al.
specifically state that no tumors were found in the rats.

환경귀착
Propylene glycol can be released into the environment via
industrial releases or by disposal of consumer products.
Propylene glycol is readily soluble in water and has a low
sorption partition coefficient (KOC), so has the ability to move
through soil and to leach into ground water. Because of low
vapor pressure (0.1 mmHg at 25°C) and high water solubility,
there is minimal volatilization to the atmosphere from
surface water releases as well as substantial removal of its
vapors by wet deposition. Its low octanol/water partition
coefficient (KOW) indicates that bioconcentration and biomagnification
should not happen. Propylene glycol is readily
degraded in surface water and soil, by chemical oxidation and
microbial digestion, with a short half-life (1–5 days) in
aerobic or anaerobic conditions. It is also rapidly degraded in
the atmosphere by photochemical oxidation, with a half-life
about 1 day. Although environmental releases can and do
occur (airports must monitor storm water runoff of deicing
solutions), human health effects are likely to be minor, at
least in comparison to effects from potential exposures in
clinical scenarios.
