Allyl alcohol is an intermediate in the production of glycerin, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, perfumes and cosmetics. It is also a raw material for producing diallyl phthalate resin and bis(2,3-dibromopropyl) fumarate. Silane derivatives of allyl alcohol and copolymers with styrene are widely used in the coatings and fiberglass industries. Allyl carbamate can be used in the photosensitive polyurethane coatings and casting industries. The allyl alcohol molecule has an alcoholic hydroxyl group and an olefinic double bond, and can be reacted with a compound such as an ether, an ester or an acetal to prepare various products.

 

The plant produces the alcohol by vapor-phase oxidation of propylene to allyl acetate followed by liquid-phase hydrolysis of the acetate to allyl alcohol. A new refining technology developed by the company is used to raise the purity of the product to 99.0 wt%.

 

Allyl alcohol is a clear liquid that is used to produce a variety of derivatives and products.

 

The IUPAC name for allyl alcohol is 2-propen-1-ol and CAS # 107-18-6.

 

From propylene, two grades of allyl alcohol are produced; C-allyl alcohol (70%purity) and P-allyl alcohol (>99.9% purity) sequentially. C-allyl alcohol is normally used in the production of epichlorohydrin while P-allyl alcohol is suited for others.

 

Allyl alcohol is a raw material for various derivatives such as epichlorohydrin, 1,4-butanediol, diallyl phthalate, allyl glycidyl ether, allyl methacrylate, styrene-allyl alcohol, and a few esters, among others.

 

These are used for a variety of applications such as an additive in plasticizers and other coatings, a polymer cross linking agent, to improve adhesion, weather resistance, gloss, and many more. Please contact us for more information about allyl alcohol.
