Frequently Asked Questions
The main end-use segments for Nitrobenzene are aniline production (approximately 85-90%), which is further used for MDI production, polyurethane foams, rubber chemicals, dyes, and pharmaceuticals; agrochemical applications (approximately 4-5%) including plant growth stimulants and pesticide intermediates; synthetic rubber, dyes, and pigments (approximately 3-5%); pharmaceutical intermediates (approximately 1-3%); and solvents and other specialty applications (approximately 1-2%). The demand for nitrobenzene is primarily driven by its conversion into aniline and the downstream polyurethane industry.
Nitrobenzene is manufactured by nitration of benzene using a mixture of concentrated nitric acid and sulfuric acid to add a nitro group to the benzene ring.
The key feedstocks are benzene and nitric acid.
Manufacturing costs are influenced by benzene and nitric acid feedstock costs, capital equipment costs, labor, energy, and maintenance requirements.
Major manufacturers include Covestro AG (Germany), Huntsman International LLC (US), Sumitomo Chemical (Japan), Wanhua Chemical Group and Sinopec (China), BASF SE (Germany), Chemours (US), Connell Chemical Industry (Brazil), Aarti Industries (India), and Bann Química (Brazil).
Nitrobenzene has the molecular formula C6H5NO2, molecular weight of 123.06 g/mol, density of 1.199 g/cm³, melting point of 5.85 degree Celsius, boiling point of 210.9 degree Celsius, flash point of 190 °F, and solubility of 0.19 g/100 ml at 20 degree Celsius.
Nitrobenzene manufacturing requires compliance with environmental and safety regulations due to its toxic properties and potential health hazards. Production facilities must manage emissions, waste handling, and workplace safety requirements.
