1. Polymer & Resin Industry:
- Serves as a key monomer for synthesizing high-performance polyesters, polyamides, and polyurethanes. These polymers are widely used in engineering plastics, hot-melt adhesives, and high-strength fibers due to their excellent thermal stability and mechanical properties.
2. Pharmaceutical & Fine Chemicals:
- Acts as an intermediate in the production of anti-inflammatory drugs, antibacterial agents, and pharmaceutical excipients. Its unique molecular structure enables the modification of drug molecules to enhance bioavailability and efficacy.
3. Lubricants & Surfactants:
- Used to produce premium lubricant additives and biodegradable surfactants, which are applied in metalworking fluids, textile auxiliaries, and household cleaning.
4. Electronic Materials:
- Contributes to the manufacturing of high-purity electronic-grade resins and dielectric materials, supporting the production of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and semiconductor components.
- Packaging Options
- Industrial Grade: 25 kg net weight per fiber drum lined with PE bag, moisture-proof and dust-proof.
- Bulk Order: Customized packaging solutions (e.g., 500 kg / 1000 kg FIBC bags) available to meet large-scale procurement needs.
- Storage Requirements
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and incompatible substances (e.g., strong oxidizers, bases).
Shelf life is 24 months when stored under recommended conditions.
- Handling Precautions
Wear protective gloves and goggles during operation to avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with plenty of water and seek medical advice if necessary.
