Product Description of 2-ETHYLHEXANOL, PHOSPHATE TRIESTER
PHOSPHORIC ACID derivatives are extensively applied as flame retardants, plasticizers, and extraction solvents in the chemical industry. One of their major applications is in hydrogen peroxide manufacturing. Trioctyl phosphate, according to Chemicalbook, is used as a solvent for hydroanthraquinone and offers several key properties, including excellent hydroanthrone solubility, a high distribution coefficient of hydrogen peroxide between water and the solvent, a high boiling point, and a high flash point.
