| Description | Chlorinated paraffins are a class of chemicals used for a variety of applications. They can be classified according to the length of their chlorine chains, and commercial formulations may include a mix of compounds in this class. CAS 106232-86-4 is considered a Long Chain Chlorinated Paraffin (LCCP), with 24 chlorine atoms. The long form is less environmentally sensitive than short-length varieties. Chlorinated paraffin is largely inert, almost insoluble in water, and flame retardant. It can function as a plasticizing additive to for metal lubricants and cutting fluids, plastics, rubber, paint, adhesives, and more. Most of the world’s chlorinated paraffin is produced in China. |

| Chemical Properties | Insoluble in water and ethanol, soluble in many organic solutions. Decompose when heated above 120℃, release hydrogen chloride gas, iron, zinc and other oxides will promote the decomposition. |
| Definition | The state of matter in which theparticles of a substance are loosely boundby intermolecular forces. The weakness ofthese forces permits movement of the particlesand consequently liquids can changetheir shape within a fixed volume. The liquidstate lacks the order of the solid state.Thus, amorphous materials, such as glass,in which the particles are disordered andcan move relative to each other, can beclassed as liquids. |
| Definition | liquid: A phase of matter between that of a crystalline solid and a gas.In a liquid, the large-scale threedimensional atomic (or ionic or molecular)regularity of the solid is absentbut, on the other hand, so is thetotal disorganization of the gas. Althoughliquids have been studied formany years there is still no comprehensivetheory of the liquid state. It is clear, however, from diffraction studies that there is a short-range structural regularity extending over several molecular diameters. These bundles of ordered atoms, molecules,or ions move about in relation toeach other, enabling liquids to havealmost fixed volumes, which adoptthe shape of their containers. |
| Agricultural Uses | Liquid is an amorphous (non-crystalline) form of matterintermediate between gases and solids in which the molecules are much more highly concentrated than insolids. Liquids take the shape of their containers but havefixed volume at a particular temperature and areincompressible. Liquid molecules are free to move within the limitsset by intermolecular attractive forces. At the aidliquidinterface the vibration of the molecules causes some ofthem to be ejected from the liquid at a rate depending onthe surface tension. The tendency of molecules to escapefrom a liquid surface is called fugacity and is largelyresponsible for evaporation. When the air space isrestricted, the escaping molecules eventually saturate theair and thus the number of molecules leaving the liquid isequal to those returning to it as a result of molecularattraction. In these circumstances, the liquid/air system issaid to be in equilibrium. Liquids vary greatly in viscosity, boiling point,vapor pressure and surface tension. Mercury has aspecific gravity of 13.6 and the highest surface tension ofall liquids. Glass has the highest viscosity. Polar liquidsare those where molecules have opposite electricalcharges on their terminal atoms or groups, which imparta force called dipolemoment. Water is a polar liquid withhigh dielectric constant. Pure hydrocarbon liquids aregenerally non-polar. |
