Benzene (English: Benzene), chemical formula is C6H6. Benzene is the simplest aromatic hydrocarbon, which is difficult to soluble in water and is easily soluble in organic solvents, and can also be used as an organic solvent. Benzene is a basic raw material for petrochemicals, and its output and production technical level are symbols of the national petrochemical development level. ,
The most important use of benzene in industry is to make chemical raw materials, and its main uses are as follows:
1. Used as an important raw material for synthetic dyes, synthetic rubbers, synthetic resins, synthetic fibers, synthetic grains, plastics, medicines, pesticides, photographic films and petrochemical products. This product has good solubility properties, so it is widely used as a solvent for adhesives and industrial solvents such as varnishes, nitro fiber paint, paint removal agents, lubricants, greases, waxes, celluloids, resins, artificial leather and other solvents.
2. Standard samples for determining refractive index. It can be used as solvents and cleaning agents for precision optical instruments, electronics industry, etc., organic synthesis, etc.
3. Used as an analytical reagent. If used as a solvent, chromatography analyzes standard substances.
4. Used as solvents and synthetic benzene derivatives, fragrances, dyes, plastics, medicine, explosives, rubber, etc.
