Handling & Protection
Provide effective ventilation during powder transfer. Wear suitable protective gloves, safety goggles and work clothing. Avoid airborne dust, ingestion and unnecessary skin or eye contact.
What Is Thiosalicylic Acid?
Thiosalicylic acid, also known as 2-mercaptobenzoic acid, is an aromatic organosulfur compound with adjacent thiol and carboxylic acid groups. CAS 147-93-3 and EC 205-704-3 identify the substance. ZXCHEM supplies light-yellow crystalline powder with assay not less than 98.0%.
The supply melting range is 164–166°C. The correct molecular formula is C7H6O2S, with molecular weight 154.19 g/mol. Preserve the specified assay and melting interval when comparing incoming inspection results; related salts, esters and other substituted mercaptobenzoic acids are different materials.
Chemical developers evaluate thiosalicylic acid as an intermediate in selected organic and dye synthesis, including thioindigo chemistry. Analytical developers evaluate thiol and carboxyl functionality in metal-ion methods, including iron determination. Validate method specificity, reaction compatibility and the selected grade for the actual process.
Standard packing is 25 kg drums. The substance is moisture sensitive and hygroscopic and should remain tightly closed, cool and dry. The matched solid reference is non-dangerous goods for road, sea and air transport, while skin, eye and respiratory irritation require dust control and appropriate protective equipment.
