Description

3-Hydroxyphenyl benzoate is a low potency ester of estradiol benzoate. The chemical stability of the compound is due to its reaction with zirconium oxide, which converts the benzoate to 3-hydroxyphenyl benzoate. Other possible reactions involve radiation and calcium stearate. 3-Hydroxyphenyl benzoate has been used as a photoresist in the production of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). When exposed to ultraviolet light, it undergoes photolysis and absorbs light at wavelengths between 240 nm and 280 nm. This absorption leads to an increase in temperature that causes polymerization and crosslinking of the PVC, leading to an increased hardness and durability.
