Uses and synthesis of Ethephon liquid

Ethephon liquid is white needle-like crystal. Ethephon CAS 16672-87-0 can be used in many crops, can promote cucumber early female flowers, more female flowers, can be used for cotton, tobacco ripening, Ethephon Raw Materials also inhibit the growth of plants, so that plants become shorter, to break the dormancy of the seed and so on a variety of roles.

Applications / Functions of Ethephon liquid

• Ethephon liquid is a plant growth regulator, which has the physiological effects of plant hormones to enhance the secretion of emulsion, accelerate maturation, shedding, senescence and promote flowering.
• Ethephon CAS 16672-87-0 is used to promote the early maturity of cotton, centralised flocculation, increase the flocculent harvest, improve the grade, and is conducive to the mechanisation of cotton farming;

Physicochemical Property of Ethephon liquid

Ethephon Raw Materials is white needle crystal. m.p.74～75℃, soluble in water and alcohol, insoluble in dichloroethane and benzene. Industrial product is light yellow viscous liquid or wax solid.

Production methodprocess of Ethephon liquid

ClCH2CH2P(O)Cl2 is synthesised directly from ethylene, phosphorus trichloride and air (or oxygen) at low temperature or high pressure, and hydrolysed to Ethephon liquid.
