Products Description of EpichlorohydrinCAS#106-89-8
Epichlorohydrin (ECH) is a versatile key intermediate and raw material, boasting extensive applications across multiple high-value industries.
Core Application Areas
Serves as an intermediate for glycerol synthesis, and the primary raw material for epoxy resins, nitroglycerin explosives, fiberglass, and electrical insulation products.
Acts as a blending agent for cellulose esters, resins, and cellulose ethers.
Used to produce surfactants, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, coatings, adhesives, ion exchange resins, plasticizers, glycerol derivatives, glycidyl derivatives, and chlorohydrin rubber.
Advantages of Derived Products
Epoxy resins (main raw materials: epichlorohydrin + bisphenol A): Feature high adhesion, low shrinkage, chemical corrosion resistance, and excellent stability. Widely applied as coatings, adhesives, reinforcement materials, and casting materials.
Chlorohydrin rubber (raw material: epichlorohydrin): A new-type rubber with unique advantages. Resists swelling in general oils and common solvents, maintains high flexibility at low temperatures without plasticizers, and outperforms nitrile rubber, chloroprene rubber, and butyl rubber in specific functions.
