CAS 79-97-0

Bisphenol C

Description:

Bisphenol C, with the CAS number 79-97-0, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of bisphenols, characterized by its two phenolic groups connected by a carbon chain. It is a colorless solid at room temperature and is known for its high melting point. Bisphenol C is primarily used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins, which are valued for their strength, transparency, and thermal stability. The compound exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents but is generally insoluble in water. Its chemical structure allows for various functional modifications, making it a versatile building block in polymer chemistry. However, like other bisphenols, it has raised concerns regarding its potential endocrine-disrupting properties, prompting regulatory scrutiny and research into its safety and environmental impact. Overall, Bisphenol C plays a significant role in materials science, but its use is increasingly being evaluated in light of health and environmental considerations.
