Description

General description

3,4-Epoxycyclohexylmethyl 3,4-epoxycyclohexanecarboxylate (EEC) is a cycloaliphatic epoxy that can be synthesized by the reaction of 3′-cyclohexenylmethyl 3-cyclohexenecarboxylate with peracetic acid. Its aliphatic backbone and molecular structure provide a number of useful properties such as thermal stability, weatherability, and electrical conductivity.

Application

EEC is an epoxy monomer that can be used as a resin in aerospace, electronics and automobile industries as an adhesive and a composite material.
