Allyl glycidyl ether (CAS 106-92-3) is a colorless liquid with a strong, sweet odor. It has a basic structure consisting of an allyl group (C3H5) attached to a glycidyl ether group (C3H5O). This chemical is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. Allyl glycidyl ether has a boiling point of 145-147°C and a density of 0.97 g/cm3.
Applicable Fields
Allyl glycidyl ether is primarily used as a monomer in the production of polymers and resins. It is commonly employed in the synthesis of epoxy resins, which find application in various industries such as coatings, adhesives, and electrical insulation. The mechanism of action involves the polymerization of allyl glycidyl ether with other monomers to form a crosslinked network, resulting in the desired properties of the final product.
Storage Conditions
