glycerol 1,3-diglycidyl ether
Description
Glycerol 1,3-diglycidyl ether (GDE) is a bifunctional epoxy monomer with a high reactivity and low viscosity. Its synthesis often involves reacting glycerol with epichlorohydrin in the presence of a base catalyst. GDE is a valuable precursor for various epoxy resins, which are widely used in coatings, adhesives, and composites due to their excellent mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and thermal stability. The epoxy groups in GDE can undergo ring-opening reactions with various curing agents, leading to cross-linked networks with tailored properties. The versatility of GDE as a monomer makes it a subject of ongoing research in the development of new and improved epoxy materials for various applications. GDE is studied to explore its potential in areas such as bio-based epoxy resins, flame-retardant polymers, and environmentally friendly materials.'
