Applications of 51594-55-9

(R)-(-)-Epichlorohydrin serves multiple industrial purposes:

  • Epoxy Resins: It is predominantly converted into bisphenol A diglycidyl ether, a key component in epoxy resin production, which is widely used in coatings, adhesives, and composite materials.
  • Synthetic Glycerol: Although less common now due to market dynamics, it was historically used for synthesizing high-purity glycerol for pharmaceutical applications.
  • Explosives and Propellants: It is also utilized in producing glycidyl nitrate, an energetic binder used in explosives and propellant compositions.
  • Crosslinking Agent: In biochemistry, (R)-(-)-Epichlorohydrin acts as a crosslinking agent for producing size-exclusion chromatographic resins from dextran.
