Description

Toluene Chemical once in the past known as toluol Chemical, is water-insoluble fluid with the regular odor of paint removers. It is a mono-substituted benzene subordinate, i.e., one in which a solitary hydrogen iota from a gathering of six molecules from the benzene particle has been supplanted by a univalent gathering, for this situation CH3. In that capacity, its IUPAC methodical name is methylbenzene. Specification: Index Standard Molecular formula C7H8 or C6H5CH3 Molar mass 92.14 g/mol Appearance Colorless liquid Density 0.8669 g/mL (20 °C) Melting point 93 °C Boiling point 110.6 °C Solubility in water 0.47 g/l (20-25°C) Refractive index (nD) 1.497 (20 °C) Viscosity 0.590 cP (20 °C) Application: • Toluene is a common solvent, which is able to dissolve paints, used as a paint thinner, silicone sealant, and in many chemical reactants. It stands as a disinfecting agent of rubber, adhesives (glues), printing ink, leather tanners, and lacquers . It also stands as a fullerene indicator, and acts as a raw material for TNT and Toluene diisocyanate (used in the manufacture of polyurethane foam). • Toluene is a common solvent, e.g. for paints, paint thinners, silicone sealants, many chemical reactants, rubber, printing ink, adhesives (glues), lacquers, leather tanners, and disinfectants.
