General description

Glycerol propoxylate is a triol material with azig-zag structure having a polypropylene glycol unit with three hydroxy end groups. It is a hydrophobic macromonomer widely used in the preparation of crosslinked polymers due to the presence of multiple reaction sites in the branched structure. It can also be used as a plasticizer to impart good elasticity to the materials.

Application

Glycerol propoxylate can be used as a macromonomer to prepare reusablegel oil sorbents for oil spill clean-up.
