Propylene glycol is clear, colorless, slightly viscous, water-soluble, hygroscopic, odorless liquid with a low vapour pressure. Produced and used in accordance with modern standards of production and quality control. Unlike many other glycols are non-toxic, is not dangerous even during prolonged inhalation of fumes and does not cause poisoning in case of accidental ingestion. Propylene glycol is allowed in most countries as a food additive E1520.
