Polyphosphoric acid CAS 8017-16-1
8017-16-1 Polyphosphate (PPA), high-concentration condensed phosphoric acid, a powerful acid combined with dehydration and catalysis. Widely used in fine synthesis catalysis, phosphorus-based flame retardant raw materials. Highly corrosive, releases heat upon contact with water. Operations require strict anti-corrosion and anti-splash measures.
Core features
Super strong protonic acid catalyst, dehydrating agent, acylation agent
Strong coordination property, high temperature resistance, non-volatile
Slow dissolution in cold water, will release a large amount of heat upon dilution with a large amount of water
