Methanol is a clear, colourless, volatile flammable liquid with a mild alcoholic odour when pure. It is miscible with water and many organic solvents and forms many binary azeotropic mixtures. Methanol occurs naturally ...

Alpha-hexachlorocyclohexane (alpha-HCH) is a major by-product (65-70%) in the manufacture of lindane (> 99% gamma-HCH). Its solubility in water is low, but it is very soluble in organic solvents such as acetone, chloroform, ...

Chlorothalonil is a colourless, odourless, crystalline solid with a melting point of 250°C and a vapour pressure of 7.63 × 10-5 Pa (5.72 × 10-7 mmHg) at 25°C. It has low water solubility (0.6-1.2 mg/litre at 25°C) and an ...

Hexachlorobutadiene is a non-flammable, incombustible, clear, oily and colourless liquid at ordinary temperature and pressure. It is poorly soluble in water but miscible with ether and ethanol. Hexachlorobutadiene is not ...

Nickel is a metallic element belonging to group VIIIb of the periodic table. It is resistant to alkalis, but generally dissolves in dilute oxidizing acids. Nickel carbonate, nickel sulfide, and nickel oxide are insoluble ...

Beryllium is a steel-grey, brittle metal, existing naturally only as the 9Be isotope. Its compounds are divalent. Beryllium has several unique properties. It is the lightest of all solid and chemically-stable substances, ...

Propachlor is a pre-emergence and early post-emergence herbicide derived from acetanilide, and has been in use since 1965. The major formulations are as wettable powder, liquid flowable (suspension concentrate) and as ...

2-Propanol is a colourless highly flammable liquid with an odour resembling that of a mixture of ethanol and acetone. The compound is completely miscible with water, ethanol, acetone, chloroform, and benzene. Analytical ...

1-Propanol is a colourless, highly flammable liquid that is volatile at room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure. It is miscible with water and organic solvents. Analytical methods for propanol include gas ...

1,1,1-Trichloroethane is a chlorinated hydrocarbon which is manufactured from vinyl chloride or vinylidene chloride by chlorination. The world production was approximately 680 000 tonnes in 1988. It is a colourless, ...
