Description

Adipoyl Chloride CAS NO 111-50-2 is a high-purity, reactive diacid chloride primarily used as a key monomer in polymer synthesis. Its bifunctional nature makes it an essential building block for creating high-performance materials with specific mechanical and chemical properties. This compound is particularly critical for manufacturers in the polymer, pharmaceutical, and specialty chemical industries seeking reliable and consistent raw materials for their production processes.

Application

• Nylon 6,6 Precursor: A fundamental monomer for the production of polyamide 66 (Nylon 6,6) via polycondensation with hexamethylenediamine.
• Polymer Synthesis: Used in the synthesis of various polyamides, polyesters, and polyurethanes for engineering plastics, fibers, and films.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a crucial reagent in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other fine chemicals.
• Crosslinking Agent: Functions as a crosslinker in polymer chemistry to modify and enhance the properties of resins and coatings.
• Organic Synthesis: Employed as an acylating agent in acylation reactions to introduce the adipoyl moiety into target molecules.
• Adhesive & Coating Formulations: Used in the production of high-performance adhesives and specialty coatings.

Quality Control

Our Adipoyl Chloride is manufactured under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, impurity profiling, and identity confirmation. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong bases, alcohols, and water. Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C.
