Raw Material for Xylidine Production

According to the Xylidine production plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Xylidine include (2,6-Dimethylphenol)-Ammonia-Aluminium Oxide Catalyst.

Production Process of Xylidine

The extensive Xylidine production cost report consists of the following major industrial production process:

• From 2,6-Dimethylphenol, Ammonia, and Aluminium Oxide Catalyst: The production process of xylidine involves amination. In this process, 2,6-dimethylphenol goes through amination in the vapor phase with ammonia in the presence of an aluminium oxide catalyst. This reaction takes place at a controlled temperature and pressure to form xylidine. Finally, the product is separated from impurities to get xylidine as the final product.

Xylidine is a colorless solid or liquid but may appear yellow or darker due to impurities. It has a characteristic aromatic amine-like odor, and it is slightly soluble in water. Its boiling point is in the range of 215 to 216 degree Celsius. It is reactive with strong oxidizing agents and can neutralize acids in exothermic reactions. It is miscible with ethanol and diethyl ether. Its molecular weight is 121.2 g/mol, and its specific gravity is less than that of water. All these physical and chemical properties make it useful in applications like the production of dyes, agrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals.
