Description

Allyl Alcohol CAS NO 107-18-6 is a versatile, highly reactive bifunctional organic compound, featuring both an alcohol group and a carbon-carbon double bond. This unique structure makes it an essential building block in the synthesis of a wide range of industrial and specialty chemicals. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the polymer, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical sectors seeking to introduce allylic functionality into their products.

Application

• Polymer & Resin Production: A key monomer and cross-linking agent for the synthesis of allyl resins, coatings, and adhesives.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other fine chemicals.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a precursor for herbicides, insecticides, and plant growth regulators.
• Organic Synthesis: A fundamental reagent for allylation reactions and the production of glycerol, esters, and ethers.
• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: Employed in the manufacture of certain flavoring agents and aroma chemicals.
• Specialty Chemicals: Used to produce plasticizers, stabilizers, and corrosion inhibitors.

Quality Control

Our Allyl Alcohol is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) for every shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay, water content, and specific impurities. Our quality commitment aligns with global standards for industrial and fine chemical manufacturing.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to maintain product integrity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and acids.
