Application

Dianhydro-D-glucitol is a greener ingredient widely used as a monomer and building block for a variety of polymers and functional materials, for medical and pharmaceutical applications. It is also used as a fuel or fuel additive.
Applications include:
  • Preparation of renewable polyesters for coating applications.
  • Synthesis of isosorbide esters such as oligo(isosorbide adipate) (OSA), oligo(isosorbide suberate) (OSS), and isosorbide dihexanoate (SDH) as renewable alternatives to phthalate plasticizers.
  • Synthesis of biodegradable porous polyurethane scaffolds for tissue repair and regeneration.
  • Synthesis of the aspirin prodrug, isosorbide-2,5-diaspirinate (ISDA).
