Performance characteristics
Chemical structure characteristics: The molecule contains a maleate structure, and its unsaturated double bonds at the α and β positions make it highly active in chemical reactions. It can participate in various reactions such as addition, such as Michael addition reaction with compounds containing active hydrogen, and can functionalize the molecule.
Physical properties: It is generally a colorless and transparent liquid with a moderate boiling point and flash point. It has a certain volatility at room temperature but is relatively low. The relative density is usually less than 1, and it is miscible with many organic solvents, such as ethanol, ether, benzene, etc., but its solubility in water is low.
Stability performance: It has a certain stability to heat and light, but under extreme conditions such as high temperature and strong light, polymerization or other degradation reactions may occur due to the double bonds in the molecule. However, adding appropriate stabilizers can improve its stability.
Good compatibility: It has good compatibility with a variety of polymers. In plastic systems such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), it can interact with PVC molecular chains as a plasticizer to effectively improve the flexibility and processing properties of PVC.
Application field
Plastic industry: As a plasticizer, it is widely used in plastic products such as PVC. In PVC processing, diisobutyl maleate can reduce the glass transition temperature of PVC, so that the product still maintains good flexibility and processability at low temperatures. It is often used in the production of PVC pipes, films, etc. to prevent the product from becoming brittle at low temperatures.
Coating field: It can be used as an active diluent or comonomer for coatings. In the coating formula, its double bond participates in the free radical polymerization reaction and copolymerizes with other resin monomers to increase the drying speed and crosslinking density of the coating, and can also improve flexibility and gloss, making the paint film tough and smooth.
Fragrance synthesis: It is one of the important raw materials for fragrance synthesis. It can be used to synthesize a variety of compounds with specific aromas and flavors, providing a rich choice for the preparation of various flavors to meet the aroma needs of different products, such as food flavors, daily flavors, etc.
Pharmaceutical industry: It can be used as an intermediate in drug synthesis to participate in the construction of the structure of drug molecules. By reacting with other compounds, specific functional groups or structural fragments are introduced to synthesize compounds with medicinal activity, providing an important material basis for the research and development and production of new drugs.
Chemical synthesis intermediate: Due to the active double bonds in the molecule, it is an important chemical synthesis intermediate and can be used to synthesize a series of organic compounds, such as reacting with amine compounds to synthesize nitrogen-containing functional compounds, which are used in drug synthesis, surfactant preparation and other fields.
