Usage

General Description

3,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)hexan-2-one is a chemical compound that consists of a hexan-2-one molecule with two hydroxyphenyl groups attached at the 3 and 4 positions. It is also known as Bisphenol A (BPA) and is commonly used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. BPA is a known endocrine disruptor and has been linked to various health concerns, including reproductive disorders, cardiovascular problems, and an increased risk of certain cancers. Due to its potential adverse effects, there has been growing concern over the use of BPA in consumer products, leading to the development of BPA-free alternatives in various industries.
