Triethylene Glycol (TEG) is a straight-chain dihydric alcohol aliphatic compound terminated on both ends by a hydroxyl group. It is a clear, practically colorless and odorless, hygroscopic liquid at room temperature. TEG is similar in properties to diethylene glycol (DEG), but has a higher boiling point, viscosity and specific gravity. It is used where high boiling point and low volatility are required.
