PACKING
25kg plastic drum (stackable), 300kg, 350kg, 400kg, 450kg ton pack.
FUNCTION
Phosphorus pentachloride, an inorganic compound with the chemical formula PCl5, is one of the most important phosphorus chlorides. The appearance is a light yellow crystalline powder with a pungent odor and easy sublimation. It is mainly used as a chlorinating agent.
APPLICATION
Phosphorus pentachloride is mainly used as a chlorination reagent for alcohols, carboxylic acids, amides, aldehydes, ketones, and enols, as well as a Beckmann rearrangement reagent. It is also used as a chlorinating agent and catalyst in organic synthesis, and is a raw material for the production of pharmaceuticals, dyes, chemical fibers, as well as for the production of chlorinated phosphazenes and phosphoryl chlorides. Phosphorus pentachloride is used as an upstream raw material in the lithium hexafluorophosphate industry chain, while downstream lithium hexafluorophosphate is mainly used to produce electrolytes for power batteries, ultimately applied in consumer terminals such as new energy vehicles.
STORAGE
