Description and Uses

Phosphorus pentasulfide, is a nonmetallic inorganic compound . It is a yellow to greenish-yellow crystalline mass with an odor similar to hydrogen sulfide. It is a dangerous fire risk and ignites by friction or in contact with water. Boiling point is 995°F (535°C) and ignition temperature is 287°F (141°C). It decomposes upon contact with water or moist air, liberating toxic and flammable hydrogen-sulfide gas. Specific gravity is 2.09, so it is heavier than water. It is toxic by inhalation, with a TLV of 1 mg/m3 of air. The four-digit UN identification number is 1340. The NFPA 704 designation is health 2, flammability 1, and reactivity 2. Primary uses are in insecticides, safety matches, ignition compounds, and sulfonation.

In manufacture of lube oil additives and pesticides. manufacture of safety matches, ignition Compounds, and for introducing sulfur into organic Compounds.
