Use of Phthalic acid
Phthalic acid is the final common metabolite of phthalic acid esters (PAEs). Phthalic acid can be used for the synthesis of synthetic agents, such as isophthalic acid (IPA), and terephthalic acid (TPA). Phthalic acid has applications in the preparation of phthalate ester plasticizers[

| preparation | 1. Phthalic anhydride was prepared by hydrolysis. 2. The phthalic anhydride is added to 60 ° C. Water, and ammonia water is added while stirring to pH 8. After decolorization and filtration, the crystal is acidified with hydrochloric acid. Industrial use of O-methyl formic acid, O-xylene or naphthalene as raw materials, by vanadium pentoxide catalytic oxidation preparation. It can be produced by hydrolysis of phthalic anhydride and also by oxidation of O-xylene or O-Toluic acid. Oxidation of naphthalene or electrolysis of naphthalene with fuming sulfuric acid in the presence of cerium or thorium salts. Phthalic acid can form phthalic acid mono-and di-esters; Substitution reactions can also occur on its benzene ring. Because phthalic acid and phthalic anhydride have similar chemical properties, phthalic anhydride is often produced directly in industry. |
| Application | is used for synthetic resins, synthetic fibers and drugs, etc. Because phthalic acid and phthalic anhydride have similar chemical properties, phthalic anhydride is often produced directly in industry. In applications, phthalic anhydride may be used in place of phthalic acid. The oral LD50 of rats was 7.9g/kg. The standard solution was prepared and used as the standard for the alkali method. Test cobalt, copper, germanium, mercury, nickel, potassium, strontium and zinc, determination of cobalt, iodate and lead. Organic Synthesis. used in the manufacture of dyes, polyester resins, polyester, drugs and plasticizers used as chemical reagents and Chromatographic Reagents |
