3.Uses:It is used in producting sulfur dyes and azo dyes, synthesizing p-nitro-Chlorobenzene, phenol, aniline and explosive, it is also a organic solvent. It is colorless transparent liquid, stimulated to skin, it can damage the function of
the blood creating organ, azeotrop can be formed between it and water. Its boiling point is 131.8°C, melting point is -45.2°Cflashing point 27-39°C in normal pressure. Its solubility in water is 0.049g/100g(30°). In normal temperature and pressure, it is stable and won’t react with water, base, dilute acid.
4. Safety note:It is easy to burn and is in danger of leading to burning and explosion when meeting with the fire, high temperature or contacting with oxidizers. The reaction of it and silver perchlorate, dichloro sulfoxide is intense.
