Uses

 Glycol carbonate (CAS NO.96-49-1) is a good solvent for high polymer such as PVC. It is also used as hydroxyethylating reagent when producing finishing agent for cotton fabric, rubber ingredients. Glycol carbonate produce carbon dioxide in acid medium, so it can be used as plastics foaming agents.

Production

  Glycol carbonate (CAS NO.96-49-1) is produced by cycloaddition reaction of Clycol with Diethyl carbonate or a reaction between Glycol and Phosgene, Epoxyethane and Carbon dioxide .
