1,6-Hexanediol diglycidyl ether is an organic chemical in the glycidyl ether family. It is an aliphatic compound that is a colorless liquid. It has two epoxide (oxirane) groups per molecule. Its main use is in modifying epoxy resins especially viscosity reduction whilst flexibilizing.[2] It is REACH registered.[3]

Manufacture[edit]

1,6-Hexanediol and epichlorohydrin are reacted in the presence of a Lewis acid as catalyst to form a halohydrin: each hydroxyl group of the diol reacts with an epoxide on epichlorohydrin. This process is followed by washing with sodium hydroxide to re-form the epoxide rings in a dehydrochlorination reaction.[4][5] One of the quality control tests would involve measuring the Epoxy value by determination of the epoxy equivalent weight.

Uses[edit]

Its main use is for reduction of viscosity in epoxy resin systems - it is thus an epoxy reactive diluent. The chain length helps give some degree of flexibility as an epoxy resin has rigid aromatic rings which are planar.[6] These systems may then be formulated into CASE applications: Coatings,[7] Adhesives, Sealants, Elastomers, and composite materials. The use of the diluent does effect mechanical properties and microstructure of epoxy resins.[8][9]

Toxicity[edit]

The toxicity is fairly well understood.[10] It is classed as a skin irritant, skin sensitizer, allergen and has caused contact dermatitis.[11][12]
