Allyl Chloride
Rs 170 per Kg + GSt as applicable
Category:
Organic Intermediate / Alkylating Agent / Chemical Raw Material
Description:
Allyl Chloride (C₃H₅Cl) is a colorless, volatile, and flammable liquid with a pungent, chloroform-like odor. It is a key industrial intermediate used in the manufacture of epichlorohydrin, allyl alcohol, and specialty polymers. Due to its high reactivity and ability to undergo polymerization and substitution reactions, allyl chloride plays a crucial role in the production of resins, plasticizers, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals.
Applications:
1. Chemical Manufacturing: Primary raw material for epichlorohydrin (used in epoxy resins). Used to produce allyl alcohol, allyl esters, and allylamine derivatives.
2. Polymer & Resin Industry: Intermediate for thermosetting resins, cross-linking agents, and plasticizers. Used in production of silicone coupling agents and acrylic resins.
3. Pharmaceuticals & Agrochemicals: Intermediate for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and pesticides.
4. Other Uses: Employed in the manufacture of flame retardants, adhesives, and coatings.
