Phthalic anhydride is a white crystalline compound and a key industrial chemical intermediate derived from naphthalene or ortho-xylene oxidation. It is an important building block in the production of a variety of plasticizers, resins, dyes, and other organic compounds. As a cyclic anhydride of phthalic acid, phthalic anhydride is known for its reactivity and versatility in chemical synthesis.
Main Applications:
Phthalic anhydride is widely used in the manufacture of plasticizers, especially dioctyl phthalate (DOP), which is used in flexible PVC products. It is also a crucial raw material for producing alkyd resins in paints and coatings, unsaturated polyester resins for fiberglass-reinforced plastics, and various dyes and pigments. Additionally, phthalic anhydride serves as a chemical intermediate in pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals, and flame retardants.
