Benzophenone #CAS119-61-9
Diphenyl ketone [119-61-9], benzophenone, C6H5COC6H5, C13H10O, Mr 182.22. The stable form of diphenyl ketone consists of colorless rhombic prismatic crystals. Several unstable forms with lower melting points also exist. Diphenyl ketone is insoluble in water and readily soluble in organic solvents. Diphenyl ketone and substituted diphenyl ketones in particular are used mainly as photoinitiators for UV-curable printing inks and coatings. Diphenyl ketone is also used as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals and agricultural chemicals. It is employed in the perfume industry as a fixative and as a fragrance with a flowery note.
Benzophenone is a combustible, white,crystalline solid with a rose-like odor. Molecularweight=182.23; Specific gravity (H2O:1) = 1.085 at 50℃;Boiling point = 305℃; Freezing/Melting point = 48.5℃;Latent heat of vaporization=2.93 3 105 J/kg; Heat ofcombustion= -358 3 105 J/kg. Hazard Identification(based on NFPA-704 M Rating System): Health 1,Flammability 1, Reactivity 0. Insoluble in water.
Application of Benzophenone
Sunscreen cosmetics is the hot new products of cosmetics, almost all sunscreens contain benzophenone compound on the current market. Benzophenone compounds that protect the skin from harm, often is used to produce high product. In recent years, the cosmetics consumption of benzophenone grows continuesly. Recent studies suggest that fluorescence is also a harmful ultraviolet light source, so benzophenone expands the range of applications in the field of cosmetics, it has been extended to hair conditioners, lotions and lipsticks. In addition, the perfume fixative agent also can give spice sweet flavor, is used in many perfumes and soap flavor.
Banana Boat company has developed a UVA ultraviolet-absorbing technology called AvoTriplex, which is benzophenone-based, adding a stabilizer to prevent the benzophenone from breaking down in the sun. Enhancer is also added into the formula, and stabilizer may act synergistically, to optimize benzophenone sunscreen capacity.
Benzophenone is used as a synthetic intermediate for manufacture of pharmaceuticals and agricultural chemicals. It is also used as a photoinitiator in UV-curable printing inks, as a fragrance in perfumes, as a flavor enhancer in foods. Benzophenone can be added as a UV-absorbing agent to plastics, lacquers, and coatings at concentrations of 2–8%.
