Physical Properties: Dicyclopentadiene is a colorless crystalline form at room temperature, and when it contains impurities, it is a light yellow oily liquid with a stimulating camphor flavor. It is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers.
Applications: Dicyclopentadiene has important applications from basic organic chemical raw   materials to new metal polymer materials. It can be used as a raw material for the production of unsaturated resins, metallocene, adamantane,   glutaraldehyde, dicyclopentadiene chloride (insecticide), etc. It is widely used in fields such as medicine, pesticides, spices, leather making, synthetic rubber, and can also be used as a high-energy fuel.
