Used as a catalyst for synthetic ammonia, silicone resin, and rubber curing agent.
Used as an energy-saving smoke suppressor and antiknock agent for fuels, commonly found in diesel, gasoline, heavy oil, coal, etc.
Replaces toxic tetraethyl lead in gasoline as an antiknock agent, preparing high-grade unleaded gasoline to eliminate environmental pollution and human toxicity caused by fuel emissions.
Used as a radiation absorber, thermal stabilizer, light stabilizer, and smoke suppressor. Its derivatives can prevent the degradation of polyethylene by light, used in agricultural mulching film to allow it to degrade and fragment naturally within a certain period without affecting cultivation and fertilization.
Used as a burn rate catalyst for rocket propellants in the aerospace industry.
Used as an antioxidant for rubber or polyethylene.
Used as a curing catalyst for polyester resins.
Used in the preparation of organosilicone oil emulsions.
Properties
Summary
Ferrocene is an organic transition metal compound with aromatic properties. Its molecules show polarity, high thermal stability, chemical stability and radiation resistance. It is widely used in industry, agriculture, medicine, aerospace, energy conservation, environmental protection and other industries. The main applications are: (1) energy saving smoke suppressant and antiknock agent used as fuel. For example, it is used to make gasoline antiknock agent, burning rate catalyst of rocket propellant, solid fuel for aerospace, etc( 2) Used as catalyst. For example, as a curing agent for silicone resin and rubber, it can prevent the degradation of polyethylene to light. When it is used for agricultural mulching film, it can be naturally degraded and broken within a certain time without affecting farming and fertilization( 3) Used as gasoline antiknock agent. It can replace the toxic tetraethyl lead in gasoline as an antiknock agent to make high-grade lead-free gasoline, so as to eliminate the pollution of fuel emissions to the environment and the toxicity to human body( 4) Used as radiation absorber, heat stabilizer, light stabilizer and smoke inhibitor( 5) It is used to prepare a series of widely used derivatives.
