Ferrocene

Efficient and Multifunctional Additive namely cyolopentadienyl iron Used as fuel catalyst for rocket (aeroplane) propellan

Ferrocene, namely cyolopentadienyl iron with the chemical formula of Fe(C5H5)2, is an efficient and versatile additive and chemical reagent. Ferrocene is a metallorganic complex with the smell of camphor. Ferrocene has a melting point of 172-174°C, boiling point of 249°C. It is dissolved in organic solvents such as benzene, diethyl ether, methanol, ethyl alcohol, gasoline, diesel oil, and kerosene, but not in aqueous. It is chemically steady and poisonousless, not reacting with acid, alkail and ultraviolet. It doesn't decompose until 400°C. Mixed with Ferrocene, the diesel oil can be preserved for a long use.

Application:

Used as fuel catalyst for rocket (aeroplane) propellant, it can improve combustion speed by 1-4 times, lower the temperature of exhaust pipes, and avoid infrared chase.

It can be used as gasoline antiknock (in place of tetrasthyl lead) to produce leadless gasoline.

Used in fuel oils such as diesel oil, heavy oil, light oil ect, It can eliminate smoke, save energy and reduce air pollution. Adding 0.1% Ferrocene to diesel oil can cut down the consumption of oil by 10--14%, eliminate smoke by 30--70%, and improve power by more than 10%. And no deposit is left at the spray. So it plays a dominant role in the development of fuel oils and improvement of their moderate conditions.

It can promote ammonia synthesis reaction under moderate condition.

As protective agent and stabilizer, it can increase softening point and heat stability of polymer, improve the properties of plastic, fuser, cellulose ect; protect polynthene, polypropene, polyster ect, from depolymerization caused by ultraviolet.

Used in luminous sensitive materials, it can replace silver on film. moreover, it can also be used in photosensitive copy and printing with high resolution.

It can be used for making large scale integrated circuit board, enhancing light sensitivity by four times, improving accuracy, simplifying technical process, and eliminating pollution.

 As photosensitive catalyst, it can promote the photochemical degadation of plastic films, reducing white pollution.

It is used as medical ingredients for anticancer, antibiotic, and blood-tonic preparations.

It can be used for producing fertilizer.

It can be used for making quality carbonicellulose. It can be used as biochemical and analytical reagent.
