Description

Sodium 2,4,6-Trichlorophenolate is the sodium salt derivative of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, a compound known for its biocidal and preservative properties. This product is valued for its enhanced solubility and stability in aqueous systems compared to its phenolic precursor, making it a more versatile industrial intermediate. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the agrochemical, wood preservation, and specialty chemical synthesis sectors for producing fungicides, bactericides, and other halogenated compounds.

Application

• Agrochemical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of selective herbicides and fungicides for crop protection.
• Wood Preservative Formulation: Used in the production of treatments to protect timber from fungal decay and insect damage.
• Industrial Biocide: Incorporated into formulations for slime control in paper mills and cooling water systems.
• Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a building block for synthesizing more complex halogenated aromatic compounds in pharmaceutical and dye chemistry.
• Research & Development: Utilized in laboratories as a standard or reagent for analytical and developmental studies.

Quality Control

Our Sodium 2,4,6-Trichlorophenolate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and impurity profiles. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, moisture content, and related substance levels is provided with every shipment to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and handling properties.
