Application
Biphenyl is used in organic syntheses, heat transfer fluids, dye carriers, food preservatives, as an intermediate for polychlorinated biphenyls, and as a fungistat in the packaging of citrus fruits.
Biphenyl with high thermal stability and low vapor pressure, long often alone or with diphenyl ether and blend to used as heating medium. Component of biphenyl and terphenyl (including Biphenyl 13%, terphenyl 61%) can effectively absorb radiation, can be used as a heating medium for nuclear power plant. And three terphenyl([91-94-4]) is the byproduct of benzene pyrolysis to produce Biphenyl, according to the different reaction conditions, the proportion of the reaction product of biphenyl and terphenyl within a certain range of change, in general, Biphenyl: terphenyl=78:1. Biphenyl is used as a carrier, and its derivatives of ethyl biphenyl, diethyl biphenyl and triethyl biphenyl senior can be used as solvents, used in pressure sensitive dye solvent of carbon paper.
