GDE can be used in the formation of epoxy materials, which can further be used in electrical instruments and biodegradable plastics.

Glycerol diglycidyl ether (GDE) is an aliphatic epoxy monomer that can be used as a diepoxy crosslinker. It has a low viscous epoxy matrix that can be cured with aliphatic amines to form a thermosetting material with good flexibility. Its properties include low shrinkage, good adhesion, and good thermo-mechanical properties.
