Dipropylene Glycol Diacrylate(CAS: 57472-68-1)

Dipropylene Glycol Diacrylate (DPD) is a monomer consisting of a diacrylate functional group attached to a dipropylene glycol backbone. It is a colorless, clear, and slightly viscous liquid at room temperature with a distinctive odor. Its molecular formula is C8H14O4.

Dipropylene Glycol Diacrylate (DPD) is primarily used as a photoinitiator and reactive monomer in the production of UV-curable coatings, adhesives, and inks. It is also used in the synthesis of polyacrylate polymers and in the manufacture of optical lenses and optical fibers.

Dipropylene Glycol Diacrylate (DPD) is generally considered safe for industrial use, but it is important to follow safety guidelines. It is classified as slightly toxic and may cause skin and eye irritation. Proper protective measures, such as gloves and safety glasses, should be worn during handling. Storage should be in a cool, dry place, away from heat sources and direct sunlight.

Dipropylene Glycol Diacrylate (DPD) should be stored in a cool, dry place with a maximum temperature of 25°C (77°F) and a relative humidity below 60%. It should be kept away from heat sources, direct sunlight, and open flames. The container should be tightly sealed and stored in a well-ventilated area to prevent evaporation and contamination. Avoid contact with water and other incompatible materials.
