Peracetic acid; Ethaneperoxoic acid; Peroxyacetic acid Molecular formula: C2H4O3
Structure: CH3COOOH Molecular weight: 76.05
Nature: There are spicy colorless liquid, freezing point -30 ℃, boiling point l05 ℃, the density of 1.15g/cm 3 , a flash point of 40.56 ℃, Open Cup, the refractive index of 1.3974, insoluble in water, alcohols, ether, sulfuric acid. Is a strong oxidizer, highly volatile. At -20 ℃ will explode, there is 45 percent greater than the concentration of explosive, when high fever, reducing agent or the existence of metal ions will cause an explosion. General merchandise for 40% concentration solution, the storage process will gradually break down to release oxygen when heated to 110 ℃ or explosion. Highly toxic! Strong stimulation of the skin.
Applications: Mainly used for paper, paraffin, wood, fabric, grease, starch bleaching agent. Pharmaceutical industry for drinking water, food and disinfectants to prevent infectious diseases. Used for manufacturing organic industrial epoxy propane, glycerol, caprolactam ring of oxidants and antioxidants. Plastics industry for the manufacture of epoxy resins and plasticizers. Analytical chemistry for chemical reagents. In addition, it can be used as a preservative, etc. |
