Allyl Alcohol, available in 99%, 99.9%, and ≥99.99% concentrations, is produced via advanced processes including epoxypropane isomerization, allyl chloride hydrolysis, or acrolein reduction . It features high chemical reactivity as the simplest representative of unsaturated alcohols, containing both a vinyl group and a hydroxyl group . As a bifunctional molecule, it is widely used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of glycerol, glycidol, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty polymers, as well as in the production of optical resins, protective coatings, and cross-linking agents . Its high purity and consistent quality make it ideal for critical applications requiring precise chemical properties. Each batch is rigorously tested using GC analysis to ensure consistent quality meeting industrial and pharmaceutical standards.
