Description

4-(Vinyloxymethyl)Cyclohexylmethyl is a specialized organic intermediate featuring a cyclohexane ring functionalized with both vinyloxymethyl and methyl groups. This unique bifunctional structure makes it a valuable building block for synthesizing advanced polymers, coatings, and fine chemicals. It is particularly sought after by R&D chemists and production engineers in the polymer, specialty chemical, and pharmaceutical industries for creating novel materials with tailored properties.

Application

• Polymer Crosslinking Agent: Used to introduce reactive vinyl ether groups into polymer backbones for enhanced crosslinking density and material performance.
• UV-Curable Resins & Coatings: Serves as a key monomer in formulations for coatings, inks, and adhesives that cure rapidly under UV light, offering high efficiency and low VOC emissions.
• Specialty Monomer for Copolymers: Incorporated into acrylic, epoxy, or other copolymer systems to modify flexibility, adhesion, and chemical resistance.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Utilized in the synthesis of complex drug molecules and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) requiring specific cyclohexyl frameworks.
• Liquid Crystal Materials: Acts as a precursor in the production of monomers for liquid crystal polymers and displays.
• Adhesive & Sealant Formulations: Enhances the performance and curing characteristics of high-end industrial adhesives and sealants.

Quality Control

Every batch of 4-(Vinyloxymethyl)Cyclohexylmethyl is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We ensure compliance with relevant industry standards and provide full traceability. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles as determined by GC, HPLC, and NMR, is supplied with each shipment to guarantee consistent quality and reliability for your critical processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized and light-sensitive; prolonged exposure to air or light should be avoided to maintain product integrity.
