2-(Chloroethoxy)ethanol

2-(Chloroethoxy)ethanol (CAS 628-89-7 ), also known as diglycol chlorohydrin, is a chlorinated glycol ether used as a reactive intermediate and specialty solvent in chemical synthesis and industrial formulation. Its bifunctional structure, combining a hydroxyl and a chloro group, makes it a building block for flame retardants, biocides, and polymer additives. In plastics and polymer processing, it serves as a precursor. It is used in synthesizing flame retardant additives incorporated into coatings, adhesives, and elastomers. The textile and leather industries use it in formulating preservative and biocidal treatments where controlled reactivity is required. In coatings and sealant systems, it functions as a reactive solvent or carrier that participates in the final polymer network rather than simply evaporating off. This ensures better structural integrity. Industrial cleaning formulations also incorporate it where solvent coupling with aqueous systems is needed to target specific soils or residues. It is supplied as a clear liquid in drum and IBC quantities. The product is available primarily in technical grade, with purity specifications typically ranging from 97% upward depending on the supplier. These volumes are suited to industrial procurement needs. Buyers should confirm specification sheets for residual chloride content and water levels when evaluating for reactive synthesis applications. This ensures the material meets the necessary performance criteria. Contact us for supply of 2-(Chloroethoxy)ethanol Request Quote
