1,10-Decanediol(CAS: 112-47-0)

1,10-Decanediol is an organic compound with the chemical formula C10H20O2. It is a colorless, viscous liquid with a faint odor. This diol is widely used in the production of polyesters, polyurethanes, and other polymers, and it is also used as a solvent and in the manufacture of resins and adhesives.

1,10-Decanediol is primarily used in the production of polyester fibers, films, and resins. It is also utilized in the formulation of lubricants, as a solvent in the polymer industry, and in the production of adhesives and coatings. Additionally, it serves as a raw material in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.

1,10-Decanediol is generally considered safe for its intended uses under normal handling conditions. It is non-toxic and not particularly flammable. However, it should be handled with care due to its viscosity, which can make it difficult to manage. Proper protective equipment, such as gloves and safety glasses, is recommended when working with this compound.

1,10-Decanediol should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It is best kept in tightly sealed containers to prevent contamination and degradation. The temperature should not exceed 25°C, and the relative humidity should be controlled to prevent moisture absorption. Adequate ventilation should be ensured to avoid the build-up of flammable vapors.
