Use | can be used as dye intermediate, disinfectant, analgesic, anesthetic, refrigerant, mineral dressing agent, precipitant, solvent and anti-explosion liquid components. used as analytical reagent and solvent for determination of molecular weight used as disinfectant, analgesic, refrigerant, water-quenching agent, Antiknock agent, solvent and so on used as solvent for determination of molecular weight, the refractive index of the mineral is determined. Separation of various ores by specific gravity. The standard solution is used for the following purposes such as water analysis. 1, the determination of molecular weight of the solvent, the determination of mineral refractive index. Separation of various ores by specific gravity. 2, industrial dye intermediates, pharmaceutical analgesics, air fumigation disinfectant, refrigerant, antiknock component, resin and paraffin solvent, etc. Calibration instruments and devices; Evaluation methods; Working standards; Quality assurance/quality control; Other. For ICP-AES, AAS, AFS, ICP-MS, ion chromatography, etc. Standard solutions were used for titration analysis. |
production method | is obtained by reacting acetone with sodium hypobromate. First, sodium hypobromate was prepared with bromine and alkali solution. Under alkaline conditions, acetone was quickly added into sodium hypobromate at 0-5 ℃ to keep the temperature at 30-50 ℃. After the temperature dropped, stirring was continued for 10min. Acetone and sodium bromate reaction through the decomposition of three bromoacetone bromoform. Standing layer, distillation, washing, filtration, drying to obtain the finished product. Raw material consumption quota: acetone 650kg/t, bromine 3500kg/t. |
