Description

Coal Tar CAS NO 65996-92-1 is a complex, viscous black liquid derived from the destructive distillation of bituminous coal. This material serves as a foundational feedstock for a vast array of industrial chemicals and materials, valued for its rich aromatic hydrocarbon content. It is essential for manufacturers in the construction, chemical processing, and specialty materials sectors seeking a reliable source of key intermediates.

Application

• Road Construction and Paving: As a primary component in coal tar pitch for asphalt binders and sealants, providing durability and water resistance.
• Chemical Manufacturing: Serves as a crucial raw material for the production of creosote, naphthalene, phenanthrene, and other aromatic compounds.
• Protective Coatings: Used in the formulation of specialized paints, varnishes, and corrosion-resistant coatings for industrial and marine applications.
• Carbon Products: A key binder in the manufacture of electrodes for aluminum smelting and graphite products.
• Wood Preservation: A source for creosote oil, used historically and industrially for protecting timber from rot and insects.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Certain refined fractions can be used as starting materials for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
