Application

Ethylene carbonate has been used:
  • In the synthesis of aliphatic polyurethanes using diamines and diols.[1]
  • As a precursor for ring-opening polymerization using KOH as initiator.[2]
  • As a reactant in the preparation of dimethyl carbonate, glycerol carbonate by transesterification reaction.[3][4]
