Epichlorohydrin is a highly reactive electrophilic compound and is used in the production of glycerol, plastics, epoxy glues and resins, epoxy diluents and elastomers.The principal uses for epichlorohydrin are in the production of epoxy resins (its primary use), synthetic glycerin, epichlorohydrin elastomers, specialty water treatment chemicals, wet-strength resins for paper production, and surfactants.
Epichlorohydrin is a versatile precursor in the synthesis of many organic compounds. ... The epichlorohydrin is reacted with an alkali nitrate, such as sodium nitrate, producing glycidyl nitrate and alkali chloride.
It is used as a solvent for cellulose, resins, and paints, and it has found use as an insect fumigant.
