Handling & Protection
Use closed transfer with effective ventilation and suitable ignition-controlled equipment. Wear chemical-resistant gloves, tight goggles and face protection; avoid vapour, mist and direct contact. Maintain immediate eye-washing facilities.
What Is Propargyl Alcohol Propoxylate?
Propargyl alcohol propoxylate, commonly abbreviated PAP, is an ether-alcohol component for nickel electroplating brightener systems. The supplied identity is CAS 3973-17-9, formula C6H10O2 and molecular weight 114.14 g/mol. It is distinct from enzymes and antibodies that also use the abbreviation PAP.
ZXCHEM supplies clear, colourless to yellowish liquid with assay ≥98.0%, pH 5.0–7.0, density 1.01–1.04 g/mL at 20°C and refractive index 1.4430–1.4455 at 20°C. These are grade-specific supply limits; compare results on the stated temperature and method basis rather than substituting generic computed properties.
PAP is evaluated with other brightener and auxiliary additives for nickel-deposit brightness and levelling. Concentrate composition, bath analysis, current density and replenishment determine the required addition rate. Assess compatibility and plating performance through representative trials rather than copying a universal dose.
Standard packing is 25 kg drums. The matched liquid safety reference classifies the material as UN 1993, Class 3, packing group III, and identifies skin irritation and serious eye damage. Keep ignition sources controlled and follow the selected reference storage recommendation of dry, sealed containers at 2–8°C. No numerical flash point is inferred from the transport classification.
