Description

2,6-Di(4-Azidobenzylidene)Cyclohexano-2,2'-Disulfonic Acid, Sodium Salt is a specialized organic compound featuring azido and sulfonate functional groups, making it a valuable photoactive and water-soluble intermediate. This compound matters for its unique reactivity profile, enabling its use in advanced material synthesis and as a cross-linking agent under light activation. It is primarily needed by researchers and manufacturers in the photopolymer, specialty polymer, and advanced coating industries seeking to develop novel light-sensitive materials.

Application

• As a key photoinitiator or cross-linking agent in the formulation of UV-curable resins, inks, and coatings.
• In the research and development of advanced photopolymers for 3D printing (stereolithography) and holographic recording materials.
• As a functional monomer or additive for synthesizing water-soluble, light-responsive polymers with specific mechanical or chemical properties.
• In biochemical research as a potential photoaffinity labeling probe due to the reactive azide group, useful for studying protein-ligand interactions.
• For the surface modification of materials to introduce azide functional groups for subsequent "click chemistry" reactions, enabling precise bioconjugation or material grafting.
• In the development of specialty adhesives and sealants that require light-triggered curing mechanisms.

Quality Control

Our production of 2,6-Di(4-Azidobenzylidene)Cyclohexano-2,2'-Disulfonic Acid, Sodium Salt adheres to stringent internal quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for your research and production needs. All materials are characterized using advanced analytical techniques, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and relevant specifications is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials.
