Chlorendic anhydride is a solid with an unusually stable chlorinated bicyclic structure.
Being a difunctional acid anhydride, it has many useful applications in the synthesis of flame retardant polymer systems such as alkyds, polyurethanes, unsaturated polyester and epoxy resins.
Besides having a degree of fire resistance, polyesters containing chlorendic anhydride often exhibit a significant degree of UV stability and corrosion resistance.
