Vinylcyclohexene (VCH)

Vinylcyclohexene (VCH)

Vinylcyclohexene is a doubly unsaturated cyclic C8 hydrocarbon featuring a highly reactive vinyl group combined with a stable ring structure. This unique molecular design enables selective polymer modification and targeted chemical synthesis, making VCH a valuable building block for specialty applications. 
Commonly used as an intermediate for flame retardants, specialty chemicals, and polymerization modulators, vinylcyclohexene also serves as a versatile precursor that can be further transformed through hydrogenation or functionalization. With consistent quality and well‑defined reactivity, VCH provides a flexible platform for high‑performance formulations and advanced materials development.

Applications:

flame retardants | polymerization modifiers | specialty chemicals | non-polar solvents | hot-melt adhesives | epoxy resins | pharmaceuticals

Industry:

Plastics, polymers, specialty chemicals, solvents, adhesives, coatings, petrochemicals, electronics
