Use | Used as an ammonium nitrate explosive sensitizer (actual commodity is isomer mixture), carbide additive, as well as sulfide dye, organic synthesis intermediate. |
production method | is obtained from naphthalene through mixed acid nitration, acid separation, dehydration and drying. It can also be prepared from α-nitronaphthalene. α-nitronaphthalene is dissolved in sulfuric acid, and nitric acid is added at 80-90 ℃ to form dinitronaphthalene. |
