GENERAL
DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS
|
Chloronaphthalenes, also called polychlorinated naphthalenes, PCNs, are organic
halogen compounds based on naphthalene ring system formed by replacing hydrogen
atoms in naphthalene by one or more chlorines; the generic molecular formula is
C10H8-nCln, where n = 1–8. There are 75 congeners of chlorinated naphthalenes
having properties of hydrophobic, high chemical and thermal stability, good
electric friction and low flammability. Its commercial production was stopped in Europe and
USA. They have been used in solvent, wood preservative, immersion oil for
testing refractive index and as additives in cable insulation, engine oil,
electroplating compounds and capacitors. They are used in producing dyes. |
