Cyclohexane Dimethanol is a white crystalline solid at room temperature, offering excellent thermal and oxidative stability, low color, and low volatility.
CHDM is primarily used as a monomer in the production of specialty polyesters and copolyesters that are known for their clarity, toughness, and chemical resistance. This makes CHDM valuable in packaging, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and engineering plastics.
Its use enhances polymer performance by improving impact strength, flexibility, and processing characteristics, making it a key ingredient in both consumer and industrial applications.
