· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Diglycidyl resorcinol ether .
Diglycidyl Resorcinol Ether , also called Resorcinol diglycidyl ether (RDGE), is a glycidyl ether with the C 12 H 14 O 4 . It is commercially available to reduce viscosity of epoxy resins. It is also highly toxic, potentially leading to irritation of skin, eyes, respiratory system, and skin. It is a known carcinogen with no safe levels of exposure.
Diglycidyl resorcinol ether can be retained and analyzed using the Newcrom R1 stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) without a buffer. Detection is performed using UV.
