  Applications

  The most important derivative of allyl chloride is epichlorohydrin, which is produced captively and is mainly used for epoxy resin production. The largest allyl chloride market is the manufacture of quaternary ammonium flocculants for raw and potable water clarification.

  Other key chemicals made from allyl chloride include a variety of allylamines which are used for the production of ion exchange resins, polymers, and specialty products. Silane derivatives are incorporated as rubber crosslinking agents for the production of green tires.

  Allyl chloride also finds applications for the manufacture of other miscellaneous specialty products such as:
