BISPHENOL F DIGLYCIDYL ETHER Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties	Clear Colourless Oil
Uses	Bisphenol F Diglycidyl Ether is an novalac glycidyl ether (NOGE). Bisphenol F Diglycidyl Ether is found in resin used as coatings for food cans. Bisphenol F Diglycidyl Ether is a toxic conatminant wit h strict limitations on the amount allowed in food products.
Definition	ChEBI: Bisphenol F diglycidyl ether is an aromatic ether that is bisphenol F where the hydrogens of both hydroxy groups have been replaced by a oxiran-2-ylmethyl group. It is an aromatic ether, an epoxide and a diarylmethane. It is functionally related to a bisphenol F.
General Description	Bisphenol F diglycidyl ether (BFDGE) is a stabilizing compound, commonly used as a precursor in the production of epoxy resins and as an additive in organosol resins. It is reported to be used as a material for interior coating of food cans.
Contact allergens	Epoxy resins based on Bisphenol F, also called phenolic Novolac, contain bisphenol F diglycidyl ether, which has three sensitizing isomers. DGEBF has a greater resistance than DGEBA. Contact allergy to bisphenol-F-based epoxy resins is rarer than that due to bisphenol-A-based resins and is frequently acquired with flooring materials and putty.
