Epichlorohydrin (ECH) is a vital organic intermediate primarily produced via the chlorination of propylene followed by dehydrochlorination. Its molecular formula is C3H5ClO with CAS No. 106-89-8. This colorless liquid serves as a foundational building block for high-performance polymers.
Strictly store in cool, ventilated areas away from oxidizers. ECH is toxic and carcinogenic; mandatory PPE including respirators and chemical-resistant gloves is required during handling to prevent inhalation or skin contact.
