Description

Creosote Oil, Acenaphthene Fraction is a specialized distillation cut derived from coal tar creosote, rich in acenaphthene and related polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). This fraction is valued for its chemical stability and specific aromatic profile, making it a crucial intermediate in high-value synthesis. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the agrochemical, specialty chemical, and advanced material sectors for producing dyes, pigments, and performance-enhancing additives.

Application

• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a key starting material for the synthesis of dyes, pigments, and optical brighteners.
• Agrochemical Production: Used in the manufacture of certain herbicides and plant growth regulators.
• Specialty Polymers & Resins: Acts as a modifier or cross-linking agent in high-performance polymer formulations.
• Carbon Black & Rubber Industry: Employed as a process oil or feedstock in carbon black production and rubber compounding.
• Wood Preservative Formulations: A component in advanced wood preservative systems, leveraging its biocidal properties.
• Research & Development: Used in laboratories for organic synthesis and as a standard or reference material in analytical chemistry.

Quality Control

Our Creosote Oil, Acenaphthene Fraction is produced and tested under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch is analyzed to ensure consistent composition, purity, and performance characteristics. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as acenaphthene content, distillation range, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature (store under inert atmosphere), it is recommended to keep containers sealed under an inert gas blanket after opening and to minimize headspace. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
