It is a very reactive oxidizing and bleaching agent and has a wide range of applications.ApplicationsManufacture of PVC, a versatile plastic, by chlorination of ethylenePesticides and insecticides such as BHC, , etc.Solvents such as TCE, Chloromethanes, Chlorobenzenes, Chlorotoluenes, etc.Chlorofluorocarbons used in refrigeration, fire-fighting, etc.Mono Chloro Acetic Acid (MCA), needed to make CMC used in textile processingHydrochloric acid, Chloro Sulphonic acid, metallic chlorides & other chlorine based chemicalsChlorinated paraffin wax, a plasticiser & chlorinated rubber paintsDrugs and pharmaceuticals Bleaching of pulp, cotton textiles etc. Distinfection and water treatmentPhysical PropertiesColourGas-Greenish Yellow Liquid-clear AmberOdourCharacteristic, suffocatingBoiling (liquefying) point-34°C (1 atm)Freezing (melting) point-101°C (1 atm)Density - liquid - dry gas1.468 gms/cc at 0°C and 3.617 atm 3.209 g/L (0°C, 1 atm)Vapour Pressure3.617 atm (at 0°C)Latent heat of vaporisation68.7 cal/gm at -34°CLiquid - Gas volume relationshipOne volume of liquid chlorine weighs as much as 457.6 volumes of gas at 0°C and 1 atmSolubility in waterSlightly solubleChemical PropertiesI - FlammabilityNeither liquid nor gaseous chlorine is explosive or flammable.II - Reactivity1. A mixture of chlorine and hydrogen containing more than 5% of either component, forms an explosive substance.2. It reacts with ammonia, alkalies and hydroxides of alkaline earth metals.3. It reacts with organic compounds to form chlorinated derivatives and hydrogen chloride. Some of these reactions, particularly those with hydrocarbons, alcohols and ethers may become explosive.4. Dry Chlorine reacts with several materials.Packing and LabellingPacking, labelling & storage of Chlorine are governed by the Gas Cylinder Rules framed under the Explosives Act of the Government of India.StorageChlorine is generally stored and sold in special grade steel containers which are painted "golden yellow" as per IS:4379-1967Chlorine cylinders should be stored in upright position and secured against falling over. Tonne containers should be stored on their sides and should not be stacked.The valves on cylinders and tonne containers should be protected a stout metal cap securely attached to the cylinder body.The storage area should be separate. It should be dry, well-ventilated, clean and protected from external heal sources such as steam pipes etc.HandlingCylinders and tonne containers should not be permitted to drop and no object should be allowed to strike them with force.A flexible copper tubing connection between the container and the piping should be used to draw gas from the container. A barometric leg should be installed before the entry of gas into the reactor.Fire HazardsThere is no fire hazard, unless Chlorine comes in contact with Hydrogen, powdered metals, phosphorous and certain organic compounds like hydrocarbons, turpentine, ether etc.know more1867255248Get Best PriceCall Now
