Phenylmethane supplier distributor manufacture in Tamilnadu india

ennore chemical  chemical Phenylmethane  is an aromatic hydrocarbon. It is a colorless, water-insoluble liquid with the smell associated with paint thinners. It is a mono-substituted benzene derivative, consisting of a CH3 group attached to a phenyl group. As such, its IUPAC systematic name is methylbenzene. Toluene is predominantly used as an industrial feedstock and a solvent.

As the solvent in some types of paint thinner, contact cement and model airplane glue, toluene is sometimes used as a recreational inhalant and has the potential of causing severe neurological harm.

Uses
Toluene is mainly used as a precursor to benzene via hydrodealkylation:

The second ranked application involves its disproportionation to a mixture of benzene and xylene. When oxidized it yields benzaldehyde and benzoic acid, two important intermediates. In addition to the synthesis of benzene and xylene, toluene is a feedstock for toluene diisocyanate (used in the manufacture of polyurethane foam), trinitrotoluene (the explosive, TNT), and a number of synthetic drugs.Trinitrotoluene explosive synthesis requires toluene. Toluene is nitrated to dinitrotoluene. Dinitrotoluene is nitrated to trinitrotoluene.Toluene is needed for dinitrotoluene. Dinitrotoluene is needed for toluene diisocyanate, which is used to produce polyurethane foams.Toluene is a common solvent, e.g. for paints, paint thinners, silicone sealants, many chemical reactants, rubber, printing ink, adhesives (glues), lacquers, leather tanners, and disinfectants
