Applications of Propionaldehyde:
1.It is used to prepare alkyd resin, rubber accelerator and anti-aging agent, herbicide, insecticide, anti-mildew agent, propionic acid, propanol, propylamine, etc
2.GB2760-1996 as permitted use of spices.Mainly used to prepare apple, cherry, chocolate and onion flavor.
3. It is mainly used in the production of n-propanol, propionic acid, trihydroxymethyl ethane, propionate oxime and other intermediates, further production of alkyd resin, pesticide herbicide and insecticide, drug mollpain and ethazide,
also used in paint, plastic, food, textile, feed, rubber additives.
4. Propionic aldehyde is the intermediate of insecticides imidacloprid, acetamiprid, pentene cypermethrin, as well as the intermediate of methylene and pyrimidine.
5. It is used to make synthetic fiber, rubber accelerator and anti-aging agent, etc. It can also be used as antifreeze agent, lubricant, dehydrating agent, etc
6. It is used to produce propanol, propionic acid and trimethyl-ethane, as well as synthetic resins, rubber accelerators and antiaging agents.
