Product Information

• Name: 4-Phenoxy-1-butanol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Phenoxy-1-butanol is a reactive chemical that can be used as a macroinitiator in cationic polymerization. When 4-phenoxy-1-butanol is heated to about 200°C, it undergoes a ring opening reaction to form an alkoxybenzene. This reaction can be followed by kinetic and microscopy techniques. 4-Phenoxy-1-butanol also reacts with amines to produce haloalkyls, which are then alkylated by chloride or proton. Macroinitiators such as 4-phenoxy-1-butanol have been used for the synthesis of polyurethanes with different properties such as thermal stability, water resistance, and adhesion strength.
