Chemistry & industry
Uses & manufacturing
Applications
UsesAlkyd and polyester resin intermediate, softener, moistening agent, and solvent.
Uses1,2,6-Hexanetriol is used as moisturizing agent (cremes), as solvent (pharmaceuticals) and as crosslinker in plastics. It acts as wetting agent of tobacco and special hydraulic fluid. It is used in the production of alkyd resins, celluloid, polyurethane and synthetic rubber.
Uses1,2,6-Hexanetriol has been used as a precursor to synthesize a trivalent linker containing three thiol moieties (triskelion) for the regioselective terminal activation of chitosan.It can be used to prepare:1,6-Hexanediol (key polymer precursor to polyesters) via hydrodeoxygenation process in the presence of Rh–ReOx/SiO2 catalyst.Tetrahydropyran-2-methanol, a six-membered oxide ring, by reacting with ethylene carbonate.
