Bisphenol A CAS#80-05-7
High Purity and Stability – Industrial-grade Bisphenol A has a purity of ≥99% and is chemically stable under normal conditions.
Physical Versatility – It is a white, odorless crystalline solid with well-defined melting (158–159℃) and boiling points (220℃ at 4 mmHg), making it easy to handle and process.
Solubility Flexibility – Soluble in ethanol and acetone, while insoluble in petroleum ether, allowing compatibility with various organic solvents.
Safety in Handling – Low vapor pressure (4.0×10⁻⁸ mmHg at 25℃) reduces inhalation risk, though it should be kept away from strong oxidizing agents and alkalis.
Product Description of Bisphenol A CAS#80-05-7
Bisphenol A (4,4'-isopropylidenediphenol) is an industrial-grade product with a purity of ≥99%. It appears as a white, odorless crystalline solid. Its melting point is 158–159℃, and its boiling point is 220℃ at 4 mmHg. The compound has a very low vapor pressure of 4.0×10⁻⁸ mmHg at 25℃ and a relative density of 1.195 (20℃). It is slightly soluble in water (0.12 g/L at 25℃) and readily soluble in ethanol and acetone, while insoluble in petroleum ether. Bisphenol A is chemically stable but should be kept away from strong oxidizing agents and alkalis.

Product Application of Bisphenol A CAS#80-05-7
Bisphenol A is a high-production-volume chemical widely used as a key raw material in various applications. It serves as a monomer for polycarbonate resins, which are employed in food-contact products such as reusable beverage bottles, infant feeding bottles, plates, and mugs. It is also used in the production of epoxy-phenolic resins for protective coatings on food and beverage cans. Additionally, Bisphenol A functions as an antioxidant and as an inhibitor of end polymerization in PVC plastics.
