QUICK LINKS

1,4-Benzenedimethanol is a compound that functions as a crosslinking agent in polymer chemistry. It plays a role in the formation of polymers by reacting with other compounds to create strong, durable materials. At the molecular level, 1,4-Benzenedimethanol interacts with polymer chains, forming covalent bonds that link the chains together. This crosslinking action enhances the mechanical and thermal properties of the resulting polymer, making it more resistant to heat, chemicals, and physical stress. The compound′s mechanism of action involves facilitating the formation of a three-dimensional network within the polymer structure, increasing its strength and stability.
