Like other diols, this viscous, colorless liquid is used as a plasticizer and also forms polyesters, which are used as emulsifying agents and resin intermediates.Merck Index, 11th Edition, 7073. Synthesis and reactions 1,5-Pentanediol is produced by hydrogenation of glutaric acid and its derivatives. Werle, P. Morawietz, M.

The toy consists of small beads that stick to each other when sprinkled with water. 1,4-Butanediol, which when ingested is metabolized to gamma-hydroxybutyric acid, was detected by GC-MS. https://pubs.acs.org/cen/news/85/i46/8546news11.html Chemical & Engineering News Industrial Chemical Sullies Popular Children's Toy Wang, L. 2007-11-09 Griffiths, J.
