Uses:
1.Used in pesticide production and oil processing industry.
2.used in organic synthesis of alkaline condensation agent and catalyst,used in the synthesis of spices,dyes,etc.,is the raw material of vitamin B1,A and Sulfadiazine;
3.Used as raw materials for medicine and pesticides,it is an important raw Material for the synthesis of sulfamidine,xnomin,sulfamide synergist and other Drugs.
4.Catalysts used to treat edible fats and oils(especially lard) to change the fat Structure so that it is suitable for margarine,etc.,must be removed from the final Product. Mainly used as condensation agent, strong alkaline catalyst and methoxygenation agent,used to prepare vitamin B1 and A,sulfadiazine and other Drugs,a small amount for agrochemical production.
5.Analytical reagents are widely used in spices,dyes and other industries.
