Tetraethylene Glycol Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- TTEG
- Tetraglycol
- Tetraethyleneglycol
- 3,6,9-Trioxaundecane-1,11-Diol
Tetraethylene glycol supplier enquiries in Malaysia cover the clear hygroscopic liquid also known as TTEG or tetraglycol. It is used as a high-boiling process solvent, formulation component, humectant and chemical intermediate across industrial manufacturing.
Commercial requirements usually separate industrial, high-purity and low-moisture grades. Buyers may specify assay, moisture, colour, acidity, density and the distribution of related glycols, especially where water or trace impurities can affect a reaction or finished formulation.
Applications include selected resins, coatings, inks, adhesives, cleaners, process fluids, lubricants and synthesis routes. Tetraethylene glycol is distinct from triethylene glycol and from polyethylene glycol, so use the full name or TTEG rather than the ambiguous abbreviation TEG.
Send the required purity and moisture specification, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Tetraethylene Glycol grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industrial tetraethylene glycol | clear colourless liquid | assay, moisture, colour, acidity and glycol distribution confirmed by grade | Process solvent, humectant, lubricant component and chemical intermediate in industrial formulations that specify tetraethylene glycol. | Confirm the required drum or IBC presentation with the quotation. |
| High-purity tetraethylene glycol | clear colourless liquid | higher-purity assay with moisture and related-glycol limits confirmed against the process specification | Synthesis, electronics-related processing and formulation work where tighter colour, moisture and related-glycol controls are required. | Confirm the required drum or IBC presentation with the quotation. |
| Low-moisture tetraethylene glycol | clear colourless hygroscopic liquid | moisture limit, assay and acidity confirmed against the moisture-sensitive application | Resin, solvent and intermediate uses where water content can affect reaction, dilution or finished formulation performance. | Confirm the required drum or IBC presentation with the quotation. |

Tetraethylene Glycol applications
Safety and handling
Keep tightly sealed because the liquid is hygroscopic. Protect from contamination and follow the storage and handling information supplied with the quoted grade.
Common questions about tetraethylene glycol
Is tetraethylene glycol the same as triethylene glycol?
No. Tetraethylene glycol contains one more oxyethylene unit and has its own CAS identity and physical-property profile. Use TTEG or the full name on the enquiry because TEG commonly refers to triethylene glycol.
Is tetraethylene glycol the same as polyethylene glycol?
No. Tetraethylene glycol is a defined lower glycol with four oxyethylene units, while polyethylene glycol is a polymer family sold by molecular-weight grade. They should remain separate on specifications and orders.
What is tetraethylene glycol used for?
It is used as a high-boiling process solvent, humectant, lubricant or formulation component and chemical intermediate. The application determines whether industrial, high-purity or low-moisture material is appropriate.
Which specifications matter when buying TTEG?
Common controls include assay, moisture, colour, acidity, density and the distribution of related glycols. Moisture-sensitive synthesis or electronics applications should state the required water limit clearly.
What information is needed for a tetraethylene glycol quote?
Provide the assay and moisture targets, application, quantity, delivery location, preferred pack format and required documents. Availability and actual packing are confirmed with the quotation.
