Description

Propane-1,3-Diol, Sodium Salt is the sodium salt derivative of 1,3-propanediol, a versatile organic compound. This chemical is valued for its dual functionality, serving as both a reactive intermediate and a stabilizing agent in various high-value synthesis processes. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for applications requiring precise alkalinity and solubility in organic media.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Synthesis: Employed as a key building block or catalyst in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly where sodium alkoxide chemistry is required.
• Agrochemical Intermediates: Used in the synthesis of herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators that benefit from its anionic properties.
• Polymer & Resin Production: Acts as a co-monomer or chain transfer agent in condensation polymerizations, such as for polyesters and polyurethanes.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Serves as a strong base or nucleophile in various organic reactions, including alkylations and esterifications.
• Electrolyte Formulations: Investigated for use in specialized battery or electrochemical cell electrolytes due to its ionic nature and solubility profile.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Potential use as a pH adjuster or stabilizer in formulations, though dependent on specific grade and purity compliance.

Quality Control

Our Propane-1,3-Diol, Sodium Salt is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profiles, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, store in a cool, dry place at room temperature (15-25°C) under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon to prevent degradation. Keep away from strong acids and incompatible materials.
