1,6-Hexanediol

Description:

1,6-Hexanediol is a colorless, viscous liquid with the chemical formula C6H14O2. It is classified as a diol, meaning it contains two hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups. This compound is known for its hygroscopic nature, allowing it to absorb moisture from the environment. It has a relatively high boiling point and low volatility, making it suitable for various applications in the chemical industry. 1,6-Hexanediol is commonly used as a building block in the synthesis of polyurethanes, resins, and plasticizers, contributing to improved flexibility and durability in materials. Additionally, it serves as a solvent and a humectant in cosmetic formulations. The substance is generally considered to have low toxicity, but safety precautions should be taken during handling to avoid skin and eye irritation. Its stability under normal conditions makes it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis and industrial applications.
