CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | Sodium pentachlorophenate is a white or tan, powdered solid. It is soluble in water and may burn, but it is not easily ignited. It may be toxic by ingestion, inhalation and skin absorption. It is used as a fungicide, herbicide and as a disinfectant. |
|---|---|
| Color/Form | White crystalline solid |
| Odor | Phenolic odor |
| Boiling Point | Decomposes. (USCG, 1999) |
| Solubility | In water, 3.30X10+5 mg/L at 25 °C |
| Density | 2.0 mg/L at 22 °C/4 °C |
