Applications
Personal Care & Cosmetics
1,2-Pentanediol is used in a range of personal care formulations as a moisturizing and antimicrobial formulation component.
Typical applications include:
• Facial masks
• Creams
• Sunscreens
• Serums
• Shampoos
• Shower gels
In skincare formulations, it can support moisture retention and help improve product preservation performance. In hair and body care formulations, it can also function as a formulation aid and preservation booster.
Formulation Consideration
For cosmetic manufacturers, impurity control is an important consideration when selecting 1,2-pentanediol for export-oriented formulations. Higher levels of olefin-related impurities may affect formulation quality and skin compatibility.
Liansheng supplies high-purity 1,2-pentanediol with controlled impurity levels for personal care applications and overseas formulation requirements.
Agrochemical Applications
1,2-Pentanediol is used as an upstream synthetic intermediate in the production of triazole fungicides such as propiconazole.
It contributes to the synthesis of the active molecular structure and supports the production of agrochemical intermediates used in crop protection formulations.
Impurity Control
For agrochemical manufacturers, impurity profiles can affect downstream synthesis and product registration requirements. Controlled production and purification help provide a more consistent raw material for customers operating under overseas regulatory requirements.
Polymers & Coatings
1,2-Pentanediol can be used as a formulation aid in water-based acrylic and polyurethane systems.
Potential functions include:
• Solubilization support
• Preservation support
• Formulation stability
• Reduced reliance on certain high-VOC aromatic solvents
It can be considered for water-based coating systems where low-VOC formulation requirements and controlled raw material quality are important.
Regulatory & Quality Documentation
U.S. Regulatory Status
1,2-Pentanediol is listed on the existing U.S. TSCA chemical substance inventory. Additional PMN submission is therefore not required for the substance under the stated inventory status.
Customers can request relevant regulatory documentation for import and compliance review before shipment.
Quality Management
The production facility has completed the required environmental assessment and maintains relevant production safety and pollutant discharge permits.
The facility is certified to:
• ISO 9001
• ISO 14001
Relevant documentation can be provided to support customer supplier qualification and EHS review.
Documentation Available
Depending on customer requirements, the following documents can be provided:
• Chinese and English GHS-compliant SDS/MSDS
• Batch-specific COA
• Original GC test results and chromatograms
• Manufacturer qualification documents
• Certificate of Origin
• SGS third-party testing reports upon request
Supply Capability
Production Capacity
A dedicated 1,000-ton-per-year 1,2-pentanediol synthesis and distillation line is currently in operation.
