| | 2-Ethylhexyl glycidyl ether Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | colourless liquid | | Uses | It constitutes
a reactive diluent and may be used as a relatively nonvolatile
chloride-scavenging agent and stabilizer for vinyl resins and
rubber. | | Uses | 2-Ethylhexyl glycidyl ether is a used as a commercial reactive diluent. 2-Ethylhexyl glycidyl ether is also known to induce sister-chromatid exchanges in Chinese hamster cells. | | Production Methods | 2-Ethylhexyl glycidyl ether is made by condensation of
2-ethylhexanol with epichlorohydrin followed by dehydrochlorination
with caustic to form the epoxy ring. | | General Description | Clear colorless liquid. | | Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | 2-Ethylhexyl glycidyl ether is incompatible with acids, bases and oxidizing agents. | | Fire Hazard | 2-Ethylhexyl glycidyl ether is combustible. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Non flammable |
