1,6-Hexanediol (HDO) is a linear aliphatic diol primarily synthesized via hydrogenation of adipaldehyde or hydroformylation of butadiene. Its molecular formula is C₆H₁₄O₂ with CAS No. 629-11-8. This colorless viscous liquid serves as a critical intermediate in polymer and solvent manufacturing.
Store in tightly sealed containers away from oxidizing agents to prevent degradation. Use appropriate PPE including chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection during handling due to potential skin irritation. Not intended for clinical use; strictly industrial grade only.
