Ethylene glycol binds with water, so it can be rinsed and diluted. The primary danger is its sweet taste, so children and animals can eat it, and it is toxic.
Ethylene glycol in air will break down in about 10 days.
Ethylene glycol in water and in soil will breakdown within several days to a few weeks.

What elements is ethylene glycol made up of?
The chemical formula for ethylene glycol is C2H6O2.
Is ethanol more polar than ethylene glycol?
Ethylene glycol is more polar than ethanol - a rough measure of polarity is given by the dielectric constant. For example, water is 80, ethylene glycol 37, and ethanol 24.3. Water is the most polar, followed by ethylene glycol and ethanol. Another way to think about it is that ethanol has one alcohol group, and ethylene glycol has two, so it is more polar.
How can you tell if glycol is ethylene or propylene?
You could determine its boiling point. The boiling point of ethylene glycol is 197.3 oC, and the boiling point of propylene glycol is 188.2 oC.
What is the Kf of ethylene glycol?
-1.86OC/m
Is ethylene glycol soluble in paint thinner?
Yes it is.
What elements is ethylene glycol made up of?
The chemical formula for ethylene glycol is C2H6O2.
Ethylene glycol in coolant or propylene gylcol?
Ethylene glycol
Is ethylene glycol halal?
Ethylene glycol is not of animal origin !
Are ethylene oxide and ethylene glycol monomers polymers or neither?
Polyethylene oxide and polyethylene glycol are both known polymers. Ethylene oxide and ethylene glycol are, therefore, monomeric.
What is the color of ethylene-glycol?
It is clear. If it is at room temperature, and 100% Ethylene glycol is clear.
Is ethylene glycol a polymer?
no, but polyethylene glycol is.
What is the major componet of most major brands of antifreeze?
Ethylene glycol.Ethylene glycol.
Is ethylene glycol and polyethylene glycol the same?
Yes
Is Ethylene glycol secondary alcohol?
NO! Ethylene glycol is deadly poisonous even in relatively small amounts. Ethylene glycol is not ethyl alcohol, which is the only alcohol humans (or animals) can safely drink.
What liquids can kill you?
Ethylene Glycol (antifreeze) is extremely fatal when consumed in large amounts. Ethylene Glycol (CH2OHCH2OH).
Can propylene glycol antifreeze and ethylene glycol antifreeze be mixed?
Yes, Ethylene glycol and Propylene glycol are very similar chemically, therefore, can be mixed without any bad consequences for the engine.
Is ethanol more polar than ethylene glycol?
Ethylene glycol is more polar than ethanol - a rough measure of polarity is given by the dielectric constant. For example, water is 80, ethylene glycol 37, and ethanol 24.3. Water is the most polar, followed by ethylene glycol and ethanol. Another way to think about it is that ethanol has one alcohol group, and ethylene glycol has two, so it is more polar.
