Epichlorohydrin is an important epoxide whose creation comes mainly from hydrochlorination of allyl chloride. |
Epoxy resins are typically based on the polymerization reaction of bisphenol A with epichlorohydrin. |
Most of the companies are the captive producers of Epichlorohydrin and utilize entire ECH produced for epoxy resin manufacturing. |
The ISBL services involve debottlenecking of their existing epichlorohydrin plant to increase capacity, and the OSBL services cover all utilities and the tankage area. |
Epichlorohydrin is a feedstock for the production of epoxy resins, increasingly used in applications such as corrosion protection coatings. |
Both Dow and Solvay announced their intent to produce epichlorohydrin from glycerol, which in the past was the petrochemical precursor for glycerol. |
