diglycidyl 1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylate(CAS#5493-45-8)

Introduction

Cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid bis(ethylene oxide methyl)ster, commonly known as bis(ethylene oxide) cyclohexanedioate, is an organic compound. The following is an introduction to some of its properties, uses, manufacturing methods and safety information:Quality:- Appearance: Colorless to light yellow liquid.- Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols, esters and ethers.- Stability: Stable, but decomposition may occur at high temperatures.Use:- Bis(ethylene oxide) cyclohexanedioate is commonly used as a reaction intermediate in organic synthesis for the preparation of other organic compounds.- It can also be used as a component of resins, bonding and coating in areas such as inks, adhesives, coatings and plastics.Method:The preparation of cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid bis(epoxyethylmethyl) ester is usually carried out by the following steps:In a suitable solvent, cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid is esterified with ethylene oxide to produce cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid di(ethylene oxide ester).The target product is extracted and purified from the reaction mixture by distillation or other separation methods.Safety Information:- Avoid contact with skin and eyes, as it may have an irritating effect on the skin and eyes.- Take good ventilation measures to avoid inhaling its vapours during use.- Should be stored in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place, away from fire and oxidants.- When using and storing, follow safe operating procedures and use appropriate personal protective equipment such as chemical protective gloves and goggles.
