Introduction:
Diphenyl carbonate (C13H10O3), white crystalline solid. Insoluble in water, soluble in hot ethanol, benzene, ether, carbon tetrachloride, glacial acetic acid and other organic solvents. Diphenyl carbonate is mainly used in the synthesis of methyl isocyanate, and then carbamate insecticide carbovir is prepared. In addition, it is mainly used in the plastics industry to manufacture polyaryl carbonate and p-hydroxybenzoate polyester, monoisocyanate and diisocyanate. Plastic plasticizers can also be prepared. Used as solvent and heat carrier in chemical industry.
Application:
It is mainly used as the synthetic material of engineering plastic polycarbonate and p-hydroxybenzoate, etc. It can also be used as the plasticizer of cellulose nitrate.
