Properties and stability
1. Easily soluble in water, soluble in ether, and insoluble in ethanol. Low toxicity, irritating to skin and mucous membranes. It is non-flammable and decomposes when heated to produce toxic fumes of phosphorus oxide.
2. Rat oral LD501.65g/kg. It mainly damages the central nervous system and may cause flaccid or spastic paralysis. The production operation site should be ventilated, production equipment should be prevented from leaking, and operators should wear protective equipment.
Storage method
Stored in a cool, dry and well-ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Protect from direct sunlight. The packaging is sealed. They should be stored separately from acids and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. Suitable materials should be available in the storage area to contain spills.
This product is packed in iron drums with a specification of 200kg. Store in a cool, dry and ventilated place. Fireproof. Store and transport according to regulations on toxic, flammable and dangerous goods.
Synthesis method
1. Phosphorus oxychloride reacts with methanol in the presence of potassium carbonate to form trimethyl phosphate. At the same time, the reaction produces dimethyl phosphate potassium salt, and dimethyl sulfate is used to react to produce trimethyl phosphate. The crude trimethyl phosphate product is washed with water, decolorized, dehydrated, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain the finished product. Raw material consumption quota: phosphorus oxychloride 1094kg/t, methanol 686kg/t.
2.Add methanol and potassium carbonate into the reaction pot, cool to 5°C, start adding phosphorus oxychloride dropwise, and control the temperature below 30°C. After 2 hours of dripping, stir for another 0.5 hours. The pH value Control it at 7 to 8; then add dimethyl sulfate, reflux for 3 hours and recover methanol. Then cool the material in the pot to below 20°C, add carbon tetrachloride to filter, wash the filter cake with a small amount of carbon tetrachloride, and wash the washing liquid with The filtrates are combined, carbon tetrachloride is recovered, and the crude product is obtained by distillation under reduced pressure. Add distilled water and activated carbon to the crude product, filter and add anhydrous potassium carbonate to dehydrate, and finally distill under reduced pressure to obtain the product. The main reaction is as follows:
Purpose
1. Mainly used as solvents and extractants for medicines and pesticides. Pesticide solvents are mainly used as anti-coloring agents for textile oils and polymers in Japan.
2.It is used as additive flame retardant and plasticizer, but the flame retardant efficiency is not high and the volatility is high. Generally Cooperates with other flame retardants.
