1. 4-Nitrotoluene CAS 99-99-0 is a key intermediate in organic synthesis, primarily used to produce 4-methylaniline (p-toluidine) —a critical building block for manufacturing dyes (e.g., azo dyes), pigments, and pharmaceuticals.
2. 4-Nitrotoluene CAS 99-99-0 serves as a raw material in the production of agrochemicals, such as certain herbicides and insecticides, due to 4-Nitrotoluene ability to undergo chemical modifications for targeted biological activity.
3. 4-Nitrotoluene CAS 99-99-0 is occasionally used in laboratory research as a reagent for organic reactions, and in some cases, as a precursor for synthesizing explosives or rubber chemicals (though such applications are tightly regulated for safety).
Packed in 25 kg per drum or based on customers' requirements.
1. Store 4-nitrotoluene in a tightly sealed, non-reactive container (e.g., glass or HDPE) in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources.
2. Keep 4-Nitrotoluene CAS 99-99-0 separated from strong oxidizers, reducing agents, and acids to prevent hazardous reactions, including potential fire or explosion risks.
3. Label clearly to indicate 4-Nitrotoluene toxic, flammable, and explosive properties, and restrict access to trained personnel only.
