  • Epichlorohydrin

Epichlorohydrin

Epichlorohydrin (ECH), with the chemical formula C₃H₅ClO, is an important organic chemical raw material and intermediate. It appears as a colorless transparent volatile liquid with a pungent, garlic-like odor. Containing both epoxide and chlorine functional groups, it is highly chemically reactive and serves as a key raw material for producing epoxy resins, synthetic glycerol, and various other chemical products. Due to its high toxicity and flammability, strict safety precautions are required during handling.
