Applications

As a key pharmaceutical intermediate, 5-propylhydantoin is widely utilized in synthesizing anticonvulsants, antiviral agents, and peptide analogs. Its reactive hydantoin ring enables applications in agrochemicals (herbicide intermediates), polymer crosslinking agents, and corrosion inhibitors for industrial coatings. The compound’s thermal stability also makes it suitable for high-temperature catalytic processes in fine chemical production.

Packaging

This pharmaceutical intermediate is securely packed in moisture-resistant, double-layered containers: an inner aluminum-lined polyethylene (PE) bag and an outer reinforced fiber drum. Standard units include 20kg drums or 500kg bulk pallets, with custom packaging options (e.g., vacuum-sealed bags, ISO tank containers) available upon request. All batches comply with international hazardous material transport regulations.
