Properties and stability
1. High flash point flammable liquid, non-corrosive to metals, and quick to rubber. Avoid using rubber products in valves and gaskets. Insoluble in water. Miscible with various organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, chloroform, benzene, acetone and esters. The dissolving capacity is smaller than that of tetralin, and it can dissolve dammar resin, frankincense, oleoresin, alkyd resin, grease, wax and latex, etc. Does not dissolve nitrocellulose, ethylcellulose, cellulose ester, resin and New Zealand soft resin. Liquid sulfur dioxide is insoluble, but gaseous sulfur dioxide can be absorbed by decalin. Vapors of organic compounds such as benzene, ethanol, and ethyl acetate are also soluble in decalin.
2. Decalin has two isomers, cis and trans, which usually exist in mixtures. Oxidation produces peroxide. Phthalic acid is generated by shaking in acidic potassium permanganate aqueous solution for a long time. Using tin vanadate as a catalyst, it is oxidized to phthalic anhydride by air. Relatively stable to acids and alkalis. Trans-decalin is treated with nitric acid to undergo nitration reaction. Sulfonation reaction occurs with fuming sulfuric acid. It reacts with chlorine in the presence of a small amount of iodine to produce monochlorine or polychlorinated decahydronaphthalene.
3. Stability[6] Stable
4. Incompatible substances[7] Strong oxidizing agent
5. Conditions to avoid contact[8] Air, light
6. Hazards of aggregation[9] No aggregation
Storage method
Storage Precautions[10] Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. The storage temperature should not exceed 37℃. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Keep container tightly sealed. should be kept away from oxidizer, do not store together. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. It is prohibited to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.
Synthesis method
In industry, an equal mixture of two isomers is obtained by catalytic hydrogenation of naphthalene in the presence of a nickel catalyst. If a purer isomer is required, industrial grade decalin can be washed with concentrated sulfuric acid until the acid layer is colorless. Then wash with alkali and water, separate the water layer, and dry with a desiccant. Under reduced pressure distillation, in a tower with 130 theoretical plates, the reflux ratio is close to 145:1, and the cis isomer with a purity of 99.93% (weight) can be obtained; in a tower with 200 theoretical plates, the reflux ratio The ratio is 160:1, and the trans isomer with a purity of 99.97% can be obtained.
Purpose
1. Used as solvent, paint remover and lubricant for oil, grease, resin, rubber, etc. [11]
