Allyl alcohol, 98+%

Description

CAS: 107-18-6 | C3H6O | 58.08 g/mol

Allyl alcohol is widely used as a precursor to many specialized compounds such as allyl glycidyl ether, allyl diglycidyl carbonate, allyl methacrylate, flame-resistant materials, drying oils and plasticizers. It is used as a raw material for the synthesis of glycerol, glycidyl ethers, esters and amines. It is involved in the synthesis of a variety of polymerizable esters such as diallyl phthalate.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
