Anthracene Uses

1. Anthracene (CAS NO.120-12-7) is used in the artificial production of the red dye alizarin. It is also used in wood preservatives, insecticides, and coating materials.
2. Anthracene (CAS NO.120-12-7) is an organic semiconductor. It is used as a scintillator for detectors of high energy photons, electrons and alpha particles. Plastics such as polyvinyltoluene can be doped with anthracene to produce a plastic scintillator that is approximately water equivalent for use in radiation therapy dosimetry.

To fight fire, use water, foam, CO₂, water spray or mist, dry chemical. Explodes on contact with fluorine.

Anthracene Standards and Recommendations

OSHA PEL: TWA 0.2 mg/m³

Anthracene Analytical Methods

For occupational chemical analysis use OSHA: #ID-58 or NIOSH: Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (HPLC), 5506; (GC), 5515.

Anthracene Specification

1. Fire Fighting Measures
General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. This material in sufficient quantity and reduced particle size is capable of creating a dust explosion.
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical foam.
2. Handling and Storage
Handling: Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Do not store in direct sunlight. Store in a tightly closed container.
