Hexachloro-1,3-butadiene Uses

HEXACHLOROBUTADIENE(87-68-3) is mainly used as a solvent for chlorine and many other chlorine-containing compounds. In IR spectroscopy, hexachlorobutadiene can be used as a mull in order to analyze the stretching frequencies of C-H stretching bands. In industrial cooling systems, hexachlorobutadiene has an application as an algicide, but in recent years, this application has been discouraged due to the high toxicity of the compound at low concentrations.

Hexachloro-1,3-butadiene Production

HEXACHLOROBUTADIENE(87-68-3) is mainly produced in chlorinolysis plants as a by-product in the production of carbon tetrachloride and tetrachloroethene. It can also be directly synthesized by the chlorination of butane or butadiene.
