Abstract: The present invention relates to a product of internal dehydration of sorbitol, characterized in that it has a total residual nitrogen atom content of between 0.01 ppm and 150 ppm, preferably of between 0.02 ppm and 20 ppm, more preferably of between 0.05 ppm and 10 ppm, and, more preferentially, of between 0.07 ppm and 5 ppm, this residual content being expressed as dry weight relative to the total dry weight of said product, and in that it has a total residual sulphur atom content of between 0.0001 ppm and 100 ppm, preferably between 0.0002 ppm and 50 ppm, more preferably between 0.0004 ppm and 30 ppm, and more preferentially, between 0.0008 ppm and 20 ppm, this total residual content being expressed in dry weight relative to the dry weight of said product; a method for purifying such a product and a polymer comprising a unit corresponding to said product.

Abstract: The invention relates to an epoxy pre-polymer comprising isosorbide units, characterized in that it comprises less than 1% by weight of isosorbide diglycidyl ether relative to the total weight of the epoxy pre-polymer. The invention also relates to a method for producing such an epoxy pre-polymer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing an epoxy prepolymer composition comprising glycidyl ethers, said method comprising the following steps: a) placing a dianhydrohexitol into contact with another alcohol so as to obtain a composition of alcohols; b) reacting the composition of alcohols obtained in step a) with an epihalohydrin so as to obtain a reaction mixture comprising glycidyl ethers; c) recovering the epoxy prepolymer composition comprising glycidyl ethers from the reaction mixture obtained at the end of step b); The invention also relates to an epoxy prepolymer composition that can be obtained by said method, a curable composition comprising said epoxy prepolymer composition, a polyepoxide obtained by curing said curable composition and a composite material, coating or adhesive comprising said polyepoxide.
