The packaging is sealed. should be kept away from oxidizer, do not store together. Equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment. Suitable materials should be available in the storage area to contain spills. 2. This product is flammable. There is a risk of burning when exposed to open flames or high heat. It should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated warehouse away from heat sources and fires. It should be stored separately from oxidants. Pack and unload with care, and keep the packaging intact. It should not be stored for a long time to prevent deterioration.
3. Can polymerize and oxidize during storage.

Synthesis method

In high-temperature tar, the indene content is 0.25%-0.3%. It mainly exists in coal tar and crude benzene fractions with boiling points of 168-175°C. In heavy benzene before 200°C, coumaron and indene account for about More than 40%. Heavy benzene is used as raw material for rectification on a fractionation tower with 44 theoretical plates. The reflux ratio is controlled to 15-20:1, and a fraction with a tower top temperature of 180.6-181.1°C is cut, and the indene content can reach 98%. Another method of extracting indene is to use heavy benzene and crude solvent oil as raw materials, and use furfural as an azeotropic agent for azeotropic distillation. Since furfural or formaldehyde can form an azeotrope with the hydrocarbon components in heavy benzene, but does not form an azeotrope with indene, pure products can be produced.

Use heavy benzene as raw material for rectification on a fractionation tower with 44 theoretical plates, control the reflux ratio to 15-20:1, and cut the fraction with a top temperature of 180.6-181.1°C, containing indene Up to 98%.

Tetralin can also be produced by passing SiO2/A12O3 at high temperatures.

Purpose

Except for a small amount of intermediates used in organic solvents and pesticides, it is mainly used in the production of indene-coumarone resin. It can be mixed with other liquid hydrocarbons as coating solvents.
