1,2 Hexanediol
1,2 Hexanediol is a hydroxyl-functional chemical substance or chemical grouping identified by the named structure.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
1,2 Hexanediol (CAS 6920-22-5) is colorless transparent liquid with mild sweet flavor. It is soluble in water, ethanol, ether, and low-carbon aliphatic hydrocarbons. It can be used as solvents, spices, medical disinfectants.
Positional and stereochemical identity, assay, water content and supplied form distinguish the material. A diol feedstock, formulated resin and finished polymer article have different commercial boundaries.
The commercial boundary
Use the selected edition’s stated product level, geography, years and measurement basis. Materials, components, finished systems and services are separate commercial boundaries unless that edition explicitly combines them.
Which isomer identity and supplied specification define the diol?
Positional and stereochemical identity, assay, water content and supplied form distinguish the material. A diol feedstock, formulated resin and finished polymer article have different commercial boundaries.
