The Uses of Dicyclopentadiene diepoxide
Dicyclopentadiene diepoxide acts as an intermediate for epoxy resins, plasticizers and protective coatings. It finds application as a rubber additive and adhesives, which is used at high temperature. Further, it is used in the preparation of endo-3-hydroxy-exo-9-oxa-exo-tetracyclo[5.3.1.02,6.08,10]undecane using lithium aluminum hydride as a reagent.
Safety Profile
Poison by ingestion andintravenous routes. Mildly toxic by skin contact. A skinirritant. When heated to decomposition it emits acridsmoke and irritating fumes.
