1,5-Pentanediol (PDO)

Adhesives and Sealants
1,5-Pentanediol is used in the production of polyester and polyurethane (polyester polyol and polycarbonate diol) resins. The flexibility and adhesive properties are valuable in these applications.

Coatings
In polyesters and polyurethane (polyester polyol and polycarbonate diol), 1,5-Pentanediol contributes a good balance between hardness and flexibility, adhesion, weatherability or hydrolysis resistance.
