Physical and chemical properties
- Boiling Point: 115-117 °C
- Melting Point: -57 °C
- Density: 1.183 g/mL at 25 °C
- Flash Point: 93 °F
- Refractive Index: n₂₀/D 1.438
- Water Solubility: Slightly soluble in water (6 g/100 mL at 10 ºC), miscible with alcohols, ethers, benzene and carbon tetrachloride
Chemically, it contains active chlorine atoms and epoxy groups, leading to high reactivity. It easily undergoes ring-opening reactions and may self-polymerize when exposed to light or specific catalysts. It is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents and acids.

1. Broad Raw Material Applicability: Serves as a core raw material for epoxy resins, chlorohydrin rubber, glycerol, pesticides, pharmaceuticals and other products, covering multiple high-value industrial fields
2. Superior Derivative Performance: Synthesized epoxy resins feature high adhesion, low shrinkage, strong chemical corrosion resistance and good stability; derived chlorohydrin rubber has excellent oil/solvent resistance and low-temperature flexibility, outperforming traditional rubbers like nitrile, neoprene and butyl rubber.
3. Diversified Functional Adaptability: Acts as both raw material and blending agent, compatible with synthesis, formulation and other industrial processes.
1. - Epoxy Resin Synthesis: Key raw material for producing bisphenol A epoxy resin, which is widely used in coatings, adhesives, composite materials and electrical insulation products due to its strong adhesion and corrosion resistance.
2. Glycerol & Derivatives: Important intermediate for synthesizing glycerol and glycidyl derivatives, playing a vital role in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
3. Chlorohydrin Rubber Manufacturing: Monomer for chlorohydrin rubber, which has excellent oil resistance, ozone resistance and heat resistance, suitable for manufacturing hoses, seals and cable claddings.
4. Pesticide Intermediates: Used in the production of rodenticide intermediates and other pesticides, supporting the agricultural chemical industry.
