| Section2 = | Section3 = }} Pentaerythritol's the organic compound with the formula C(CH2OH)4. This white, crystalline polyol's a versatile building block for the preparation of many polyfunctionalized compounds such as the explosive PETN and pentaerythritol triacrylate. Derivatives of pentaerythritol are components of alkyd resins, varnishes, PVC stabilizers, tall oil esters, and olefin antioxidants. Halogen-free pentaerythritol esters are also environmentally friendly alternative to convent… (More on Pentaerythritol)
