Epichlorohydrin is a highly reactive electrophilic compound and is used in the production of glycerol, plastics, epoxy glues and resins, epoxy diluents and elastomers
Dextran has found many applications in medicine including reducing blood viscosity, preventing blood clot formation, and serving as an iron-dextran nanoparticle (NP) to treat iron deficiency anemia using the carboxymethyl dextran-coated magnetite nanoparticle, Feraheme
Epichlorohydrin, which is colourless and poorly soluble in water and has a pungent, chloroform-like odour, is converted to 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol (α-chlorohydrin) in an aqueous milieu at a pH of 7 and 20°C
