CAS NO.: 106-89-8
Density: 1.183
Boiling point: 115-117 ºC
Melting point: -57ºC
Flashing point: 28 ºC
Appearance: Colorless liquid with a chloroform-like odor.
Solubility: Slightly soluble in water, miscible soluble in alcohol, ether, carbon tetrachloride, benzene.
Raw materials: propylene and glycerol
Properties: Volatile, unstable, colorless, oily liquid with a chloroform-like odor and is toxic.
Storage: Keep this stuff in a cool, breezy warehouse, away from fire and heat. Don’t let the temperature go over 30℃. Store it away from acids, bases, and food chemicals—no mixing allowed. Use safe lighting and ventilation. Avoid any tools that can spark. Make sure the storage area has equipment for leaks and proper containment materials.
Safety Protection: Highly toxic, can be absorbed by the skin, irritating the skin and mucous membranes. At higher concentrations, it has an anesthetic effect. In case of poisoning, there are symptoms such as eye stinging, conjunctivitis, rhinitis, tearing, coughing, fatigue, gastrointestinal disorders, nausea, etc. In severe poisoning, it can cause anesthetic symptoms and even damage to the lungs, liver, and kidneys. Operators should wear protective equipment. In addition, epichlorohydrin has a strong tendency to self-polymerize and should not be heated in an open flame to prevent the container from bursting. When used as a reagent for reaction, it should be diluted with an inert solvent and added slowly.

Epichlorohydrin Applications
1. Serving as a fundamental precursor for organic synthesis, it also functions as a solvent, plasticizer, and surfactant among other applications.
2. Its primary application lies in the synthesis of glycerol, epoxy resins, chlorinated rubber, and polyether polyols, making it a critical raw material for glycerol and glycidyl derivatives production.
3. ECH acts as a key intermediate in the production of the rodenticide ratamphor, along with its utilization in epoxy resins, synthetic glycerin, and various other chemical products.
We offer competitive Epichlorohydrin price, and exclusive discounts for large quantities, helping you effectively reduce procurement costs.
