Glycerine is the most commonly used commercial name in the United States for products whose principal component is glycerol, but it is frequently spelled glycerin. More precisely, however, glycerin applies to purified commercial products containing 95% or more of glycerol. Glycerol (CAS registry No. 56-81-5; NIOSH No. MA8050000) refers to the chemical compound 1,2,3-propanetriol, CH2OHCHOHCH2OH, and to the anhydrous content in a glycerine product or in a formulation. Concentration is by weight, normally obtained by conversion from specific gravity measurements made at either 20/20°C or 25/25°C.
Glycerin is a liquid at room temperature. It is viscous, stable, hygroscopic, clear, odorless, noncorrosive, sweet tasting, very low in toxicity and is classified by the Food and Drug Administration as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Glycerine prevents freezing and promotes long shelf life.
In this report, we focus on the refined glycerine.
