CHDA (1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid)(Cas No.:1076-97-7) is a cycloaliphatic diacid offering many unique performance properties to polyester resins for coatings and fiberglass-reinforced plastics. It exists as a mix of cis and trans isomers and is used as a key chemical monomer to make durable polyesters, coatings, and plasticizers. The applications are as follows:
Polyesters: Adds strength and weather resistance
Coatings: Improves gloss, hardness, and chemical resistance
Resins: Enhances flexibility and thermal stability
We also also manufactures DMCD(Cas No.:94-60-0), which is the dimethyl ester of CHDA.
