1. Pharmaceuticals: 1,2,4-triazole derivatives are often used to develop antifungal drugs. For example, the antifungal drug fluconazole, which is used to treat fungal infections, contains a triazole ring. Other triazole drugs are also used to treat diseases such as cancer and hypertension.
2. Agriculture: In agriculture, 1,2,4-triazole compounds are used as fungicides to protect crops from fungal diseases. They work by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an important component of fungal cell membranes.
3. Chemical Synthesis: 1,2,4-Triazole is used as a building block in organic synthesis, allowing chemists to create a variety of other compounds.
4. Corrosion Inhibitors: Some triazole derivatives are used as corrosion inhibitors in various industrial applications, especially in metal protection.
5. Research: 1,2,4-Triazole is also used in research settings to study its properties and potential applications in various fields such as materials science and biochemistry.
Packed in 25 kg per drum or based on customers' requirements.
1,2,4-Triazole should be stored properly to maintain its stability and effectiveness.
1. Temperature: Store 1,2,4-triazole in a cool, dry place. Ideally, it should be kept at room temperature and away from extreme heat or cold.
2. Container: Use airtight containers to prevent moisture absorption and contamination. Usually, glass or high-density polyethylene (HDPE) containers are suitable.
3. Light Protection: Keep the compound away from direct sunlight, as exposure to light can degrade some chemicals.
4. Humidity: Store in a low humidity environment to prevent the compound from absorbing moisture, which will affect its stability.
5. Label: Clearly label containers with chemical name, concentration, and storage date to ensure proper identification and handling.
6. Safety Precautions: Follow any specific safety guidelines provided by the manufacturer or supplier, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling the compound.
