Anthracene

Anthracene oil is a part of coal tar components, through the distillation of tar cut 280 ° C ~ 360 ° C fraction, generally for the yellow-green oily liquid, room temperature crystallisation precipitation, crystallisation for the yellow, blue fluorescence, can be soluble in ethanol and ether, insoluble in water, partially soluble in hot benzene, chlorobenzene and other organic solvents, has a strong irritant. It can be combustible when exposed to high temperature, the main components are anthracene, phenanthrene, fluorene, acenaphthene, carbazole and so on.

Uses

1、Extraction of fine chemicals and chemical raw materials, anthracene, phenanthrene, carbazole, the three important chemical raw materials can not be obtained from the petroleum industry to facilitate the economy, mainly relying on anthracene oil extraction to obtain. In addition, there are acenaphthene, fluorene and other substances in anthracene oil, and anthraquinone oxide can be obtained in the process of anthracene oil processing.

2、It is used as raw material for manufacturing paints, electrodes, asphalt coke, carbon black, wood preservative oil and pesticides, etc. It can be used for wood preservation and preparation.

3、It is used to produce fuel oil after hydrogen refining.
