APPLICATIONS
2-ethylhexenal is mostly converted into salts of metal zirconium, cobalt, molybdenum, zinc, etc., used as paint drying agents and heat stabilizers for polyvinyl chloride plastics; Its tin salt can be used as an additive for plastic pipes; Barium and cadmium salts are used in plastic rolling products and stabilizers, while 2-ethylhexenal and its esters are also used in pharmaceuticals, fungicides, metal lubricants, cosmetics, and other fields. Its glycerol esters are excellent plasticizers. 2-Ethylhexenal is also the raw material of Benzylpenicillin in medicine, and is also used in the synthesis of many dyes and spices.
