Description

Cyclohexane, [2-(Ethenyloxy)ethyl]- is a specialized vinyl ether derivative of cyclohexane, characterized by its reactive ethenyloxy (vinyloxy) functional group. This compound is valued in industrial synthesis for its ability to act as a versatile monomer or intermediate, facilitating the introduction of cyclohexyl and ether functionalities into polymer chains and specialty molecules. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the polymer, coatings, and advanced materials sectors for developing products with tailored properties such as enhanced flexibility, adhesion, or chemical resistance.

Application

• Polymer & Resin Modification: Serves as a reactive diluent or co-monomer in the production of specialty acrylic, vinyl ester, or epoxy resins, improving film formation and mechanical properties.
• Coatings & Adhesives Formulation: Used in UV-curable coatings, inks, and adhesives to enhance cure speed, crosslink density, and final product durability.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a key building block in organic synthesis for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and liquid crystals, leveraging its vinyl ether group for further functionalization.
• Surface Active Agents: Employed in the synthesis of surfactants and dispersants where the cyclohexane ring contributes to hydrophobicity and stability.
• Specialty Material Production: Utilized in creating advanced materials for electronics, such as photoresists or dielectric layers, due to its potential for precise polymerization.

Quality Control

Our production of Cyclohexane, [2-(Ethenyloxy)ethyl]- adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, identity confirmation, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and industry benchmarks. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, guaranteeing traceability and consistent purity and performance for your critical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) and maintain temperatures between 2°C and 25°C to maximize shelf-life and stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
