The occurrence of 1,6-Hexanediol Diglycidyl Ether is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1,6-Hexanediol Diglycidyl Ether (CAS 16096-31-4), molecular formula C12H22O4 and molecular weight 230.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1,6-Hexanediol Diglycidyl Ether is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 230.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
