General description

Glycerol diglycidyl ether (GDE) is an aliphatic epoxy monomer that can be used as a diepoxy crosslinker. It has a low viscous epoxy matrix that can be cured with aliphatic amines to form a thermosetting material with good flexibility. Its properties include low shrinkage, good adhesion, and good thermo-mechanical properties.

Application

GDE can be used in the formation of epoxy materials, which can further be used in electrical instruments and biodegradable plastics.
