What is ALLYL ISOCYANATE?

Description

Allyl isocyanate occurs in horseradish and mustard oils. It is made into an adhesive that is used in certain sailmaking techniques, which allow the resin skins to be formed into a one-piece sail.

Chemical properties

Colorless liquid, turns yellow on standing. Combustible.

The Uses of ALLYL ISOCYANATE

It finds its application in the synthesis, characterization of biodegradable dextran-allyl isocyanate-ethylamine/polyethylene glycol-diacrylate hydrogels and their in vitro release of albumin.

The Uses of ALLYL ISOCYANATE

Organic intermediate, cross-linking agent, polymer modifier.

What are the applications of Application

Allyl isocyanate is a chemical that reacts with pyroglutamate to form N-allylhydantoins

Definition

ChEBI: Allyl isocyanate is a member of isocyanates.

General Description

The rate constants for the gas phase reactions of ozone, OH radical and NO(3) radical with allyl isocyanate (AIC) were studied.
