Fluorobenzene

Fluorobenzene (also called Fluoro Benzene, Monofluorobenzene) is the simplest fluorinated aromatic hydrocarbon, formula C₆H₅F. It is a clear, colorless liquid with a benzene-like odor. The aryl–fluorine bond gives it higher stability than other halobenzenes while retaining aromatic reactivity, making it a fundamental building block for fluorinated agrochemicals, industrial organofluorine synthesis, and specialty solvent systems.

Applications

Agrochemical Intermediates: Core aryl-fluorine block for fluorinated herbicides, insecticides, and ovicides. Fluorine substitution enhances bioactivity, lipophilicity, and metabolic stability of active ingredients.
Industrial Organofluorine Synthesis: Precursor for nitration, halogenation, sulfonation, and cross-coupling reactions producing fluorinated fine chemicals.
Solvent & Process Aid: High-stability aromatic solvent for resins, polymer characterization, and controlled-reactivity process media.
Specialty Materials: Intermediate for fluorinated monomers, engineering-plastic precursors, and lithium-battery electrolyte components (industrial bulk users only).

Storage & Transportation

Storage Conditions

Fluorobenzene should be stored in a cool, dry, explosion-proof area at a temperature not exceeding 30°C; keep the container tightly sealed and away from oxidizing agents, strong acids, and sources of ignition.
Shelf life: 12 months under proper storage; retest recommended thereafter.
Bond and ground containers during dispensing to prevent static.

Transportation & Delivery

UN 2387, Class 3 PG II; sea freight (FCL/LCL) and ISO tank (18–20 MT) available.
Air freight restricted - confirm with carrier case-by-case.
Inland transport requires explosion-proof vehicle with grounding.

Lead Time: 7–15 days for stock drum orders; 15–30 days for bulk ISO tank or custom specification.

FAQ

Q: Why is it classified as dangerous goods?

A: Very low flash point (-15 °C) → UN 2387, Class 3, PG II. Full DG documentation and flame-proof handling required.

Q: Main use in agriculture?

A: Intermediate for fluorinated pesticides (herbicides and insecticides) and as a formulation solvency aid.

Q: Can you ship in ISO tanks?

A: Yes, for qualified bulk buyers by sea with DG-certified tank containers (18–20 MT per tank).
