Sulfur Phosphide for Pesticide Production

Molecular Formula: P₂S₅

Molecular Weight: 191.3

CAS NO.: 1314-80-3

EINECS NO: 215-242-4

Character： yellow to yellowish green crystal

Purpose:

Perimeter Solutions’ Phosphorus Pentasulfide (P₂S₅) is primarily used in the lubricant additives market as a key intermediate ingredient in the production of Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP). ZDDP is a critical compound in engine oils inhibiting oxidation and providing anti-wear protection.

P₂S₅ is also used in the production of organophosphate insecticides, flotation chemicals, pharmaceutical cleaning applications and developing battery technology.

Sulfur phosphide (P4S10) is a chemical compound that is formed by the reaction of white phosphorus (P4) and sulfur (S). It is a yellow solid that has a pungent odor and is highly reactive. Sulfur phosphide is used in the production of pesticides, insecticides, and rodenticides. It is also used as a fumigant in grain storage facilities and as a source of phosphorus in the production of semiconductors. Sulfur phosphide is a hazardous substance and should be handled with care. It is toxic and can cause sever burns and respiratory problems if not handled properly.

Phosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5) is a Tech Grade Phosphate and Agricultural Grade Phosphate yellow solid compound composed of two phosphorus atoms and five sulfur atoms. It is commonly used in organic chemistry as a reagent for the conversion of alcohols to thioethers, thioesters, and thiols. It is also used in the production of insecticides, fungicides, and other agricultural chemicals. Phosphorus pentasulfide is highly reactive and can be dangerous if not handled properly. It reacts violently with water and can release toxic gases when heated or exposed to moisture. Therefore, it should be stored and handled with care.
