Usage

Propionitrile is a kind of materials for organic chemical and intermediates with wide range of application
1.Used as curing agent of epoxy resin, curing accelerant.
At present, propionitrile is mainly used in curing agent for synthesizing epoxy resin. 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole (Japanese commodity brand:EMI-24, 2E4MI). This curing agent has excellent properties. For its high price, it is mainly used in the industries including spaceflight, aviation industry, electron and automobile etc..
2. In medicine industry, it is used in the materials for synthesizing antipasmodic.
3. In petrol-chemistry industry, it is used as selective solvent for separating hydroxide and refining petroleum fraction.
