Product details

What are the specifications of this product?

Overview

NAPHTHALENE POWDER / FLAKES -  Chemical Formula: C₁₀H₈ Molecular Structure: Naphthalene is composed of two fused benzene rings, forming a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. Appearance: Naphthalene powder is typically white, crystalline, and has a strong, distinctive odor. It often comes in solid forms like mothballs or flakes but can be powdered for various applications.

Product Description

Environmental & Health Impact - 

  • Health Risks: Prolonged exposure to naphthalene, particularly through inhalation of fumes, can cause headaches, dizziness, nausea, and respiratory issues. Chronic exposure can lead to more severe health effects, including liver and kidney damage, and it may be carcinogenic.
  • Toxic to Aquatic Life: Naphthalene is toxic to aquatic organisms and can cause significant harm to water ecosystems if released into the environment.
  • Regulation: Due to its health risks, the use of naphthalene in certain products, especially mothballs, is increasingly regulated in some regions.

    Naphthalene powder remains widely used in mothballs, pest control products, and as a chemical precursor in industrial processes. Its volatility and distinctive odor are key to its functionality, but concerns about toxicity have led to increased scrutiny and regulation. For safer alternatives, particularly in household products, many consumers are turning to naphthalene-free options.
