ZINC PHENOLSULFONATE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

Colorless, transparent crystals or white granular powder; odorless; astringent metallic taste. Effloresces in air, turns pink on exposure to air and light. Loseswater of crystallization at 120C; soluble in water and alcohol.

Uses

Insecticide, medicine (antiseptic).

General Description

A colorless to white crystalline solid which turns pink on exposure to air. The primary is the threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment. ZINC PHENOLSULFONATE is soluble in water. ZINC PHENOLSULFONATE is used as an insecticide and in medicine.

Air & Water Reactions

Soluble in water. Turns pink on exposure to air.

Reactivity Profile

ZINC PHENOLSULFONATE behaves as a weak acid in solution. Therefore, ZINC PHENOLSULFONATE would react with bases in neutralization reactions that would generate heat.

Health Hazard

Inhalation of dust may irritate nose and throat. Ingestion of large doses has emetic and astringent effects; can cause irritation or corrosion of the alimentary tract. Contact with eyes causes irritation. Contact with skin causes mild irritation.

Fire Hazard

Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating oxides of sulfur may form in fires.

Purification Methods

It crystallises from warm water by cooling to 0o. It effloresces in dry air. It loses all its H2O at 120o. Its solubility in H2O is 63% at 20o and 250% at boiling point, and in EtOH it is 55% at 50o. [Beilstein 11 H 53, 11 I 234, 11 IV 574.]
