Abstract
A diol composition includes 1) 95% by weight or more of a diol, the diol being selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-butanediol, 1,4-butanediol and 2,3-butanediol, and 2) impurities derived from biomass in an amount sufficient to cause the diol composition to have an electrical conductivity of 0.6 to 30 mS/m as determined by measuring electrical conductivity as an aqueous diol composition solution at 23° C. with a diol composition concentration of 16.67% and multiplying the measure conductivity by 6.
