Fluoranthene Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Recovered from coal tar. The best raw material for extracting fluoranthene is Ⅱ anthracene oil and the distillate (oil) from the oxidation process of pitch. These raw materials are put into batch-type direct fire heating distillation, and a small amount of superheated distillation pot is passed into the pot at the same time. Distillation is performed under a vacuum of 0.09MPa, and a small amount of superheated steam is passed into the pot at the same time. The distilled vapor passes through a rectification tower, a condenser and a cooler, and is cooled to a temperature higher than the melting point, and flows into the receiver grain. The distillate at 375-358°C is taken for crystallization, and the crude fluoranthene is obtained after centrifugal deoiling. The crude fluoranthene is recrystallized with a mixed solvent (30% light mineral spirits and 70% ethanol) to obtain the finished product. The yield of the narrow fraction at 375-385°C is 40%, and the purity of fluoranthene can reach 99%.

Uses

Used as non-magnetic metal surface scratch fluorescent agent; dye intermediate; pharmaceutical intermediate
