Description
1,4-Cyclohexanedimethanol diglycidyl ether (CAS 14228-73-0, EC 238-098-4) is an aliphatic epoxy reactive diluent based on a cyclohexane backbone, commercially known as Rep 111. It carries no assigned E-code and belongs to the polymers and resins category. Its molecular formula is C14H24O4.
In epoxy coating and adhesive formulations, Rep 111 reacts with amine or anhydride hardeners to extend polymer networks, reducing viscosity while contributing to the final crosslink density. In electronics encapsulants and printed circuit board laminates, its aliphatic structure limits UV-induced yellowing compared to aromatic epoxy systems, making it suitable for optically sensitive applications.
Rep 111 is supplied as a liquid and is subject to REACH registration requirements within the European Economic Area. Procurement teams should confirm current SDS documentation and substance registration status with the supplier prior to ordering. Standard industrial packaging formats apply; consult your supplier for available lot sizes.
