Applications
Benzene is formed from both natural processes and human activities. ... Some industries use benzene to make other chemicals that are used to make plastics, resins, and nylon and synthetic fibers. Benzene is also used to make some types of lubricants, rubbers, dyes, detergents, drugs, and pesticides.
Dosage and directions
Due to its high degree of unsaturation, it is highly reactive. Unlike alkenes, it never participates in addition, oxidation, and reduction reactions.
Characteristics and notes
Some industries use benzene to make other chemicals that are used to make plastics, resins, and nylon and synthetic fibers. Benzene is also used to make some types of lubricants, rubbers, dyes, detergents, drugs, and pesticides.
Safety and SDS
Read the safety data sheet before handling. Wear suitable gloves and eye protection.
