Pentaerythritol

Pentaerythritol is the with the C5H12O4. This white, crystalline with the backbone is a versatile building block for the preparation of many polyfunctionalized compounds such as the explosive and .

Derivatives of pentaerythritol are components of , , stabilizers, , and .Halogen-free pentaerythritol esters are also environmentally friendly alternative to conventional electrical , being both readily biodegradable and non-hazardous in water. They advantageously replace (PCB), and even -based or , as dielectric fluid in transformers.

Their low volatility and high give them an excellent resistance to in case of major electrical failure and transformer ruptureproperty: White crystal powder without any visible foreign matters.

Soluble in water, slightly soluted in alcohol, dissolvable in benzene, ether and petroleum ether etc., Esters will be formed by reaction with common organic acid; No reaction take place when it is heated with dilute caustic solution.

Application: Pentaerythritol is used in the manufacture of Alkyd resins, fatty acid rosin and tall oil esters and to make paint and coatings, printing ink, coating adhesives, explosives, sealants, varnish, lacquer, vinyl chloride, synthetic rubber and miscellaneous Pentaerythritol Appearance:white crystal powder HS Product Name: Pentaerythritol CAS RN.: 115-77-5 Molecular Formula: C5H12O4 HSCode:29054200 The specification:.Items Index
