Neopentyl glycol is a white, odorless, hygroscopic crystalline solid. It is primarily used in the production of unsaturated resins, oil-free alkyd resins, polyurethane foams, and elastomers as a plasticizer, surfactant, insulating material, printing ink, polymerization inhibitor, and additive for synthetic aviation lubricants. Neopentyl glycol is also an excellent solvent for the selective separation of aromatics and cycloalkyl hydrocarbons. Its amino baking varnish exhibits excellent gloss retention and is non-yellowing. It can also be used as a raw material in the production of stabilizers and pesticides.
