Description

Bisphenol A is a white or tan crystals or flakes with a mild phenolic odor and a very low vapor pressure (ECB, 2003). It is mildly soluble in water. It is not considered to be an explosive in the conventional sense but can pose a hazard as a finely powdered material in air (ECB, 2003). It is not considered to be a chemical oxidizer.

2,2-Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Derived from the condensation of phenol and acetone in an acidic medium. When sulfuric acid is used as the catalyst, the acid concentration is 72.5-76.3%, and the reaction temperature is about 40°C. The reaction is carried out in a stirred tank, which can be produced in a batch process, or a device for continuous production can be arranged. The product is neutralized, separated and separated to obtain crude bisphenol A, which is refined by xylene-water extraction to obtain the finished product. The sulfuric acid method requires less equipment and simple process, but the product quality is poor, the raw material consumption is high, and the

Uses

It is an important raw material for the synthesis of polycarbonate, epoxy resin, and high-temperature resistant polyester. It is also used as a PVC stabilizer, plastic antioxidant, ultraviolet absorber, bactericide, etc.; Bisphenol A is a product with a wide range of uses. Used to produce epoxy resin, polycarbonate, polyester resin, polyphenylene ether resin, polysulfone resin. It can also be used as polyvinyl chloride stabilizer, plastic antioxidant, ultraviolet absorber, agricultural bactericide, rubber antioxidant, etc. It can also be used as an antioxidant and plasticizer for paints and inks. Used in organic synthesis, also used as a raw material for the manufacture of epoxy resin and polycarbonate resin; used as an important raw material for polymer synthetic materials, and also used as anti-aging agents, plasticizers, pesticide fungicides, etc.
