General description

1,4-Butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) is a viscous liquid , which is hygroscopic in nature. BDDE is the most commonly used homobifunctional epoxide compound. BDDE may react with amines, hydroxyls, sulfhydryl groups to produce secondary amines, ether or thioether bonds respectively.[1]

Application

BDDE is a cross linking agent used
  • for preparing amylose, xylan and hydroxyethyl-cellulose[2]
  • to cross link polyethylenimine which also serves as a hole-blocking layer in organic solar cells[3]
  • to cross link hyaluronic acid into hydrogels[4]
  • for the activation of soluble dextran polymers.
  • Amine or hydroxyl containing bis-epoxy supports are reacted with BDDE to form particles containing terminal epoxide group for immobilization reactions.[1]

  1. 자사에서 귀사의 1,4-Butanediol diglycidyl ether(Cat. No.: 220892)를 원료로서 사용 중에 있습니다. 보관조건은 실온으로 확인되어 지는데 혹시 냉장보관(2-8)을 하였을 때, 반응성의 문제나 변화가 있을까요? 추가로 개봉한 후 안정성에 대한 자료가 있을까요?

    1 answer
    1. Stability information is available only for room temperature, and no stability data exists for refrigerated temperatures. All stability data is qualified for an unopened container, and there is no stability or shelf life guarantee after the container has been opened.

      Helpful?

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  3. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
