The following is a further sorting and expansion of the application aspects of cyclohexanol derivatives:
In the field of cardiovascular drugs, their derivatives are helpful in regulating the pharmacokinetic characteristics of drugs, such as controlling the release rate of drugs and improving the targeting in cardiovascular tissues, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effects of drugs on cardiovascular diseases and ensuring the safety and effectiveness of patients’ medication.

Modification of Polymer Materials: In plastic processing, adding cyclohexanol derivatives as modifiers can change the interactions among plastic molecular chains, making originally rigid plastics more flexible and expanding their application ranges. For some plastic products that require a certain degree of flexibility, such as plastic films and pipes, their performance can be significantly improved after such modification. Meanwhile, the derivatives can also enhance the heat resistance of plastic products, enabling them to maintain good shapes and performances in high-temperature environments and avoid problems like deformation and softening caused by high temperatures, which is crucial for application scenarios such as automobile interiors and electronic and electrical appliance shells. From the perspective of mechanical strength, the addition of derivatives helps to strengthen indicators such as the tensile strength and impact strength of plastic products, making plastic products more solid and durable.

Application in the Rubber Industry:
In the rubber production process, cyclohexanol derivatives play an important facilitating role. They can adjust the reaction rate of rubber vulcanization, ensuring that the vulcanization process is more uniform and sufficient, and enabling rubber molecules to form a more stable and regular cross-linking network structure.
The benefits brought about by this are that the wear resistance of rubber products is greatly improved.
For example, automobile tires and industrial conveyor belts can better resist friction and wear during long-term use and extend their service lives. Moreover, the enhanced aging resistance also enables rubber products to maintain good performances under complex external environments (such as changes in light, oxygen, and humidity), delaying the occurrence of aging phenomena such as hardening and cracking of rubber.
For air fresheners, they can continuously emit pleasant scents, effectively remove odors, and create a comfortable indoor environment. In detergent products, the fresh and soft scents brought by added cyclohexanol derivatives can not only make clothes smell nice after washing but also enhance consumers’ usage experience to a certain extent and increase the attractiveness of products.
With the continuous development of electronic technology, the requirements for the manufacturing and cleaning of electronic components are increasing day by day. Cyclohexanol derivatives play an important role in this regard. As electronic cleaning agents, they possess good solubility and volatility, can quickly and thoroughly remove oil stains, dust, impurities, etc.
On the surfaces of electronic components during processing and assembly processes, and will not cause corrosion to the components themselves or leave residues, thus ensuring that key indicators such as the electrical performance and heat dissipation performance of electronic components are normal. For example, in chip manufacturing, the coating and removal processes of photoresist require precise solvent cooperation.
Cyclohexanol derivatives, as photoresist solvents, can meet the requirements of high-precision processes, ensure the uniform coating of photoresist and its smooth removal later, which is of great significance for improving the yield and performance of chip manufacturing.
Surfactants

Application in Detergents: After some cyclohexanol derivatives are transformed into surfactants, their characteristics of balancing hydrophilicity and lipophilicity enable them to play an efficient role in the detergent system. They can quickly reduce the surface tension between water and oil stains, making oil stains easier to be emulsified and dispersed in water and then be removed. For different types of oil stains, whether it is kitchen oil stains, oil stains on clothes or industrial oil stains, appropriate cyclohexanol derivative-based surfactants can show good removal effects, greatly enhancing the cleaning ability of detergents and meeting the diverse needs of people’s daily cleaning and industrial cleaning.
-
Application in Coatings and Inks: In coatings and inks, the surfactants made from these derivatives can improve their leveling properties, enabling coatings and inks to cover the substrate surfaces more evenly during the application or printing processes, avoiding flaws such as flow marks and orange peel, and ensuring the quality and aesthetics of coating layers or printed patterns.
Meanwhile, in terms of coating performance, they help to improve the adhesion between coatings and inks and the substrate, making the coating layers more firm and prolonging their service lives, which is of great value for improving the performance of numerous products such as architectural coatings and packaging printing inks.
