Product Applications:

It is a raw material for organic synthesis.

It is used to make 1, 3, 5-Benzene Tricarboxylic Acid, antioxidant,

ethoxyline resin solidifying agent, polyester resin stabilizer, and alkide resin plasticizer.

It is used to

produce 2, 4, 6-trimethyl benzene for making such dyes as active cobalt blue and K-3R.

Manufacture method:

Distill heavy aromatic hydrocarbons to obtain pseudocumene.

At the same time, isomerize highly pure

1, 2, 4－Trimethyl Benzene to 1, 3, 5－trimethyl benzene.

Then fraction distillation is performed to

isolate1, 3, 5－trimethyl benzene from the reaction oil.

Toxicity and protection:

Its toxicity is similar to dimethylbenzene.

It irritates the nose and the throat.

The highest permitted

concentration in air is 125mg/m3 - The operation spot should be well ventilated and the operators should

wear protection masks.

Packaging, storage and transportation:

DOT Hazard Class: 3

DOT Identification Number: UN2325

DOT Packing Group: III

Fire and insolation should be avoided during storage.

It should be separated from oxidants.

It should be

handled with care to avoid breaking the package.

Securely sealed iron barrel no thinner than 1.2mm

should be used to pack the product and each barrel should not exceed 200kg.

If it is packed into plastic

barrels or glass bottles, securely seal the containers before put them into wood cases, which should be

securely lined inside with inflammable materials and tightly tied outside with iron wires or iron sheets.

Each case should not exceed 50kg and be marked with 'flammable'.

Drum loading: 200 Ltrs (170kgs) per galvanized iron drum, 80 drums per 20'FCL, total 13, 600kgs.

ISO Tank Loading: 20, 000 kgs per 24 CBM ISO Tank.

We hereby stongly recommend that loading by ISO Tank is much more economical and convenient than by

drum + container, if our customer can receive the goods from ISO Tank.
