1,6-diol English name: 1,6-Hexanediol shorthand: 1,6-HDO formula: C6H14O2 CAS No .: 629-11-8 Appearance: White crystals, more than 41.6 degrees liquid Assay: ≥99% Manufacturing Company: UBE UBE Packaging: 25 kg bag; 190 kg drums; application: 1, the field of polyurethane: Polyurethane elastomers are widely used in synthetic rubber, elastic fibers, synthetic leather and other fields. 1,6-hexanediol can be applied to a polyester resin, a polyurethane elastomer used to be modified resin modified, its mechanical strength, water resistance, heat resistance, oxidation resistance are excellent. 2, the polyester art: Since 1,6-hexanediol carbon chain unsaturated polyester than other short chain alcohols are more difficult to hydrolysis unsaturated polyesters, and good flexibility, it is possible to improve the alkali resistance of the resin, to improve the adhesion with glass fibers. In terms of the saturated polyester, 1,6-hexanediol and 4,4-acid group - diphenyl sulfonic acid obtained polyester having high tensile strength, high elasticity. Excellent solvent resistance and swelling, especially for photographic film base. The 1,6-hexanediol and terephthalic acid polyester suitable for the treatment of polyester fibers. 3, synthetic resin additives: a plasticizer using 1,6-diol compared with the low molecular weight plasticizer volatilization resistance, resistance to injection blooming resistance, migration resistance, low temperature resistance are having excellent properties can be widely used in plastics, rubber, epoxy resin and other materials.
