High Purity 1,6-hexanediol 629-11-8 Usage

1,6-Hexanediol is white waxy flakes, while it's Molecular Formula is C6H14O2.

1,6-hexanediol (1,6-HDO) can be used for a variety of applications. 1,6-Hexanediol (HDO) is an important precursor in the polymer industry. The current industrial route to produce HDO involves energy intensive and hazardous multistage (four-pot–four-step) chemical reactions using cyclohexane (CH) as the starting material, which leads to serious environmental problems.

Purification Methods

Fractionally crystallise it from its melt or from water. Distil it in vacuo. [Beilstein 1 IV 2556.]

Towards efficient Cu/ZnO catalysts for ester hydrogenolysis: The role of synthesis method

Aubrecht, Jaroslav,Kikhtyanin, Oleg,Kubi?ka, David,Pospelova, Violetta

, (2021/08/21)

A comparative study on the effect of synthesis method on Cu/ZnO catalysts properties and activity is missing. Thus, we synthesized 8 wt% Cu/ZnO catalysts by five methods (COP, deposition-precipitation (DP), chemisorption-hydrolysis (CH), incipient wetness (IWI) and wet impregnation (WI)), characterized and tested them in dimethyl adipate hydrogenolysis. The CH-prepared catalyst was prone to Cu sintering, which impaired its performance. IWI led to large Cu nanoparticles, pore blocking and poor catalytic performance.
