1,6-Hexanediol

I. Product Overview

1,6-Hexanediol is a straight-chain diol in the form of white crystals. It combines the chemical reactivity and stability of alcohols, serving as an intermediate in the synthesis of polyesters and polyurethanes, and also functioning as a solvent or plasticizer. It is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, and coating fields.

II. Key Features

  • High reactivity: Contains dual hydroxyl groups, easily reacts with acids, isocyanates, etc., and participates in polymerization reactions.
  • Good stability: Not easily oxidized at room temperature, resistant to high temperatures (boiling point above 250℃), and readily soluble in organic solvents.
  • Low toxicity: Complies with chemical safety standards and has wide applicability.

III. Common Specifications

  • Appearance: White crystalline powder, purity ≥99%, melting point 41-43℃.
  • Moisture content: ≤0.1%, ash content ≤0.01%, acid value ≤0.05mgKOH/g.
  • Impurities: Monohydric alcohol content ≤0.5%, heavy metal content ≤1ppm.

IV. Typical Applications

Synthesis of polyester resins, production of polyurethane elastomers, coating tougheners, pharmaceutical intermediates.
