General description

Dibutyltin dilaurate, also known as dibutyltin didodecanoate, is a dibutyltin laurate hydroxide intermediate that is commonly used as a catalyst. It is also used in the transesterification reaction.

Application

Dibutyltin dilaurate is used as a catalyst in:
  • The synthesis of polyurethane (PU) and polyhydroxyurethane (PHU) prepolymers and lignin urethane.
  • A protocol for the covalent attachment of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) to silicon oxide to form a hydrophilic non-fouling surface.
  • Preparation of polymers by reacting hydroxyl-terminated macromonomers and aliphatic diisocyanates.

A tung-oil-based polyphenol (ATOM), containing the phenolic hydroxyl group, was synthesized from tung oil and 4-maleimidophenol by the Diels-Alder addition reaction. Then self-healing thermosetting polyurethanes were prepared from ATOM and the polyurethane prepolymer. The chemical structure and cross-link network were

Internal-tamponade agents are crucial surgical adjuncts in vitreoretinal surgery. Clinically used endotamponade agents act through buoyancy forces, yet can result in prolonged post-operative positioning, temporary loss of vision, raised intra-ocular pressure, cataract formation or the need for additional removal surgery.
