Some common types of cyclohexanol derivatives and their applications and international market situations are as follows:
Some Common Types and Applications
1,4-Cyclohexanediol: In the pharmaceutical field, it can be used as an intermediate for synthesizing drug molecules with specific pharmacological activities. In terms of high-performance materials, it is used in the production of high-performance polyester fibers, engineering plastics, etc., which can improve the mechanical properties, thermal stability and transparency of materials. It is widely used in optical-grade plastics, elastomers and high-temperature-resistant coatings.
p-tert-Butylcyclohexanol: In cosmetics and personal care products, it can be used to make perfumes, skin care products, etc., imparting special scents to products or improving the texture of products. It can also be used as an intermediate in organic synthesis for synthesizing other organic compounds, such as intermediates for fragrances, drugs, pesticides, etc.
Cyclohexyl methanol: It is used for synthesizing fragrances and can be blended to create fragrances with fresh, floral and other scents, which are used in products such as perfumes and detergents. As an intermediate in organic synthesis, it can be used to prepare compounds such as esters and ethers, which are applied in fields like pharmaceuticals, pesticides, coatings, etc.
2-Cyclohexylethanol: In the fragrance industry, it can be used to blend fruit-flavored and floral-flavored essences, adding natural and fresh scents to products. As an organic solvent with good solubility, it can be used in industries such as coatings, inks and adhesives, playing roles like dissolving resins and adjusting viscosity.
