2,5-Dichloro Phenol is a chlorinated phenol used mainly as an intermediate for benzoic acid herbicides such as dicamba, and in pharmaceutical and specialty chemical synthesis..
Standard grade offers 98.5% minimum GC purity. Premium grade offers 99.5% minimum, lower water content and inert-gas blanketed packaging. Premium is recommended for multi-step routes with tight impurity control.
It is a starting point for 3,6-dichlorosalicylic acid, which is then converted to dicamba and related benzoic acid herbicides.
2,4-DCP (120-83-2) and 3,4-DCP (95-77-2) are common. They have different uses, so confirm CAS 583-78-8 on the COA.
Store in closed containers in a cool, dry, ventilated place away from strong oxidisers and bases. Use within the shelf life stated on the COA and TDS.
It is treated as a dangerous good (class and UN number per SDS; always confirm on the current SDS). We pack it in UN-approved containers, apply CLP labels and ship through licensed forwarders under IMDG for sea and ADR for European road.
Yes. Laboratory and pilot samples are supplied with a COA and SDS so your team can qualify the grade. Mention sample needs in your enquiry.
REACH status is confirmed before we quote. We advise on importer-of-record arrangements and whether the substance is registered for your use. Send your use descriptor and we will confirm.
