Description
Para-Dichlorobenzene is a chlorinated aromatic compound with a distinctive aromatic odor that is very strong at high concentrations. It is a white or colorless crystal at room temperature. It is practically insoluble in water; soluble in chloroform, carbon disulfide, benzene, and ether; and very soluble in ethanol and acetone. It is noncorrosive, volatile, and combustible, and it is flammable when exposed to heat, flame, or oxidizers.
