136-52-7 Usage
1. Mainly used as drier for paints and inks, curing accelerator for unsaturated polyester resins, polyvinyl chloride stabilizers, polymerization catalysts
2. Widely used as a drier in the paint industry and high-end color printing industry
3. Cobalt octoate is a catalyst with strong oxygen transport capacity to promote the drying of the film. Among the similar catalysts, it has the strongest catalytic dry performance and is suitable for high-grade, white or light-colored paints and light-colored unsaturated polyester resins.
-
Drying Agent:
Cobalt octoate is a highly effective surface drier, promoting the oxidation and hardening of paint films. It is particularly useful for light-colored paints and unsaturated polyester resins due to its ability to minimize frosting and enhance gloss.
-
Curing Accelerator:
It speeds up the curing process of unsaturated polyester resins, which are commonly used in various composite materials.
-
Catalyst:
Cobalt octoate acts as a catalyst in several chemical reactions, including polymerization, hydrogenation, and oxidation reactions.
-
Other Applications:
It can be used as a stabilizer for polyvinyl chloride, as a food preservative, and in the organic synthesis of certain compounds.
-
Material Properties:
Cobalt octoate is typically a purple liquid (at room temperature) with a density around 0.86 g/cm³. It’s soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water.
-
Safety Considerations:Cobalt octoate can be irritating to mucous membranes and skin, and inhalation can be harmful. Appropriate protective measures, such as gloves and eye protection, should be used when handling it.
