Industrial use and procurement boundary
1. Used as an industrial aromatic solvent and chemical intermediate; confirm the intended process and impurity profile.
2. Downstream synthesis can include selected aromatic chemicals; suitability depends on assay, water, acidity, distillation range and specific impurities.
3. Analytical-reference or other tightly controlled uses require a separate grade-specific specification; industrial supply wording does not establish reagent grade.
4. Before RFQ, define assay, water, acidity, distillation range, target process, packaging, quantity and destination.
FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain
-
Q:
Are Chlorobenzene and Monochlorobenzene (MCB) the same chemical?
A: Yes. Chlorobenzene and monochlorobenzene identify the same compound, CAS 108-90-7. They should not be treated as names for dichlorobenzene isomers or benzyl chloride. State the CAS number and the intended industrial grade in the purchase specification. -
Q:
Which release specifications matter for industrial Chlorobenzene?
A: Agree assay by gas chromatography, water, color, acidity or neutralization value, nonvolatile residue and limits for dichlorobenzene, benzene and other aromatic impurities. The test method and sampling basis matter because a nominal purity without an impurity profile is not sufficient for process approval.
