Applications

The main use of epichlorohydrin is to make bisphenol A glycidyl . That is, epichlorohydrin is condensed with bisphenol A in the presence of caustic soda to form bisphenol A chloroalcohol, and then its hydrogen chloride is removed with caustic soda to obtain bisphenol A glycidyl Epichlorohydrin is mainly used to synthesize glycerin and epoxy resin, and can also be used to make epoxy resin, chlorohydrin rubber, nitroglycerin explosive, glass fiber reinforced plastic, pesticide, medicine, surfactant, coating, adhesive, plasticizer, reinforced plastic and electrical insulation products, etc. It can also be used as a solvent for paints, cellulose esters, cellulose s and resins.

1. What Is Epichlorohydrin?

Epichlorohydrin (ECH) is a highly reactive organic compound, characterized by its colorless liquid form and pungent, sweet odor. Known chemically as (CH2CHOCH2Cl), it is an epoxide derived from the chlorination of propylene. HighMountainChem’s Epichlorohydrin plays a pivotal role in the manufacturing of epoxy resins, synthetic glycerin, and elastomers, serving a broad spectrum of industries from aerospace to consumer goods with its versatile applications.

2. Definition and Chemical Composition

Epichlorohydrin, with its molecular formula C3H5ClO, is a chlorinated oxirane that exhibits excellent reactivity due to the strained three-membered epoxide ring coupled with the presence of a chlorine atom. This unique structure makes ECH an indispensable intermediate in the production of various important chemicals and polymers. At HighMountainChem, we ensure our Epichlorohydrin meets the highest quality standards, reflecting our commitment to providing superior chemical products.

Physical and Chemical Properties

  • Appearance: A colorless liquid that may appear slightly yellow over time due to exposure to light and air.
  • Boiling Point: Exhibits a moderate boiling point, facilitating easy handling and processing in various industrial applications.
  • Solubility: Miscible with water and most organic solvents, enhancing its utility in diverse chemical reactions.
  • Reactivity: Highly reactive, especially with nucleophiles, making it a key building block in synthesizing a wide range of chemical products.
