APPLICATIONS OF BENZALDEHYDE
1) The NF /FCC grade of benzaldehyde is widely used in flavors such as almond and cherry in various fragrances for soap and toiletries.
2) Benzaldehyde is a F.D.A. sanctioned synthetic flavoring substance generally recognized as safe for foods.
3) The technical grade is a versatile chemical intermediate in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, dyes, perfumes and flavoring chemicals.
4) It is used as a Bee repellant in the harvesting of honey.
5) It is used in denatured alcohol.
6) Intermediates for numerous derivatives.
7) Chemical intermediate for aromatic alcohol.
8) It is used as a solvent for Oils, Resins some cellulose ethers, Cellulose acetate and nitrate.
9) It is used in manufacturing of Benzoic acid, pharmaceuticals, and photographic chemical.
10) Technical grade benzaldehyde is used in manufacturing of cinnamic and mandelic acids
11) Benzaldehyde is largely used as an intermediate for the manufacture of odorants and flavoring chemicals, mainly cinnamaldehyde, amyl cinnamaldehyde, hexyl cinnamaldehyde and cinnamyl alcohol.
12) Benzaldehyde is also used as starting material for pharmaceuticals (Ampicillin) and pesticides (Dibenzoquat).
13) Phenol Benzaldehyde resins have been utilized to prepare fireproof structural foam ferrocene polymers are also prepared from Benzaldehyde.
14) It is used in the production triphenylmethane green, which is obtained by condensation of benzaldehyde with dimethylaniline.
15) It is also used for extractive separation of isomeric amines.
16) Benzaldehyde most important use in organic synthesis where it is raw material for a large no of products.
