Uses
Sulfur chloride is a solvent for sulfur and a chlorinating agent. Other applications are vulcanizing rubber; an intermediate in making sulfur dyes, synthetic rubber, thionyl chloride, and several other compounds; pesticide formulations; hardening soft woods; and extracting gold. Disulfur dichloride is used as Intermediate and chlorinating agent in the manufacture of organic chemicals, sulfur dyes, insecticides, synthetic rubbers; in cold vulcanization of rubber; as polymerization catalyst for vegetable oils; for hardening soft woods. The chemical fiber industry is used as a finishing agent for the manufacture of fabrics. The metallurgical industry is used as an extraction agent for precious and rare metals such as gold and silver.
