use | this product is a reactive flame retardant, which can be used for polyester and epoxy resin, but the effect is not as good as tetrabromodiphenyl anhydride. Tetrachlorobenzene dimethyl anhydride is also an intermediate in organic synthesis of pesticides (rice blast phthalide), dyes, drugs, plasticizers, and fire-proof paints. used as a phthalocyanine green pigment and a dye intermediate of the ton series, and also a raw material for alkyd resin used as a dye intermediate and plasticizer used in electroplating and other electronic industries |
Production method | It is obtained by the reaction of phthalic anhydride by chlorination in sulfuric acid. It can also be prepared by heating and dehydrating chlorophthalic acid at 98°C. |
