TCEP (tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine) is an important raw material for chemical production, which has a wide range of properties and applications. In this paper, the properties, synthesis methods, application fields and safety of TCEP will be introduced in detail.
1. the properties of TCEP
TCEP is a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid with a special odor. Its molecular structure contains three carboxyethyl and a phosphine group, so it has good nucleophilicity and electrophilicity. TCEP has strong reducibility and can be oxidized to the corresponding oxides. In addition, TCEP also has good hydrolytic stability and thermal stability.
2. TCEP synthesis method
TCEP can be synthesized by a variety of methods, which commonly used methods include:
1. phosphorus trichloride and ethanol reaction method: phosphorus trichloride and ethanol reaction, generating chloroethyl phosphine, and then with sodium hydroxide reaction, generating TCEP.
2. Triethyl phosphite and chloroacetic acid reaction method: Triethyl phosphite is reacted with chloroacetic acid to generate TCEP.
of the above two methods can obtain higher purity TCEP products.
3. TCEP application fields
TCEP as an important chemical raw material, is widely used in the following fields:
1. Plastic additives: TCEP can be used as plastic additives to improve the heat resistance, oxidation resistance and processing properties of plastics.
2. Lubricating oil additives: TCEP can be used as lubricating oil additives to improve the anti-wear and anti-oxidation properties of lubricating oils.
3. Metalworking fluid: TCEP can be used as an additive in metalworking fluids to improve the rust resistance and abrasion resistance of metalworking fluids.
4. Pharmaceutical intermediates: TCEP can be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate for the synthesis of some drugs.
4. the safety
of TCEP
TCEP is toxic and irritating to the skin and eyes. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to safety when using TCEP and avoid contact with skin and eyes. In addition, TCEP should be stored in a cool, dry and ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and high temperature.
In conclusion, TCEP, as an important raw material for chemical production, has a wide range of properties and uses. Pay attention to safety when using, avoid contact with skin and eyes.
