Description
Dipentaerythritol (CAS: 126-58-9) is a polyol compound and pentaerythritol derivative with the chemical formula C??H??O? and molecular weight 254.28. It is a white crystalline powder (purity ≥98.0% HPLC), hygroscopic and low-toxic. It has multiple hydroxyl groups and excellent reactivity, and is widely used as an important raw material in chemical synthesis, coatings, fine chemicals and other fields. It can be prepared by the condensation reaction of pentaerythritol and is also a by-product in the production of pentaerythritol. Store in a sealed, cool and dry place to ensure product stability and avoid agglomeration caused by moisture absorption.
