Butylene glycol for Malaysian formulation and manufacturing enquiries is the 1,3 isomer, also known as 1,3-butanediol. It is a clear, colourless, slightly viscous liquid used where a water-miscible humectant, solvent or carrier is required.
Buyers may specify cosmetic grade, technical grade or a higher-purity grade according to the formulation and documentation required. This page does not cover 1,4-butanediol, 2,3-butanediol, propylene glycol or other glycol products, which have different identities and applications.
Common uses include skincare and personal-care formulations, fragrance and flavour carrier systems, preservative-support systems and selected industrial synthesis routes. The required purity and supporting documents should be stated because suitability depends on the intended process and end product.
