Chemical properties of chlorinated

The physical and chemical properties of chlorinated paraffins are deteanined by the carbon chain length of the paraffin and the chlorine content. This is most readily seen with respect to viscosity (Fig. 1) and volatiUty (Fig. 2) increasing carbon chain length and increasing chlorine content lead to an increase in viscosity but a reduction in volatiUty.

The effect of this partial double bond character on the chemical properties of chlorine atoms conjugated to double bonds is well known it corresponds in the main to a diminution in reactivity. The correlation with bond angles is discussed in a later section of this paper.

Physical-Chemical Properties of Chlorinated Dibenzo-p-dioxins Reported and experimental data for aqueous solubility, octanol-water partition coefficient, vapor pressure, and Henry s law constant are compiled and correlated with molar volumes and chlorine number. 

Let s consider a few of the physical and chemical properties of chlorine. Physically, chlorine is a gas at room temperature about 2.4 times heavier than air. It is yellowish-green in color and has a disagreeable odor. Chemically, chlorine will not burn but will support the combustion of certain other substances. It can be used as a bleaching agent, as a disinfectant for water, and in many chlorinated substances such as refrigerants and insecticides. When chlorine combines with the metal sodium, it forms a salt called sodium chloride (see Figure 4.2). These properties, among many others, help us characterize and identify chlorine. 

A rather extensive review of chlorine dioxide has been published in French by Masschelein (155). This review includes the physical and chemical properties of chlorine dioxide, methods of synthesis, and different analytical methods for determining chlorine dioxide, as well as the industrial applications of chlorine dioxide. A review by Rapson (180) of the history of the application of chlorine dioxide to the bleaching of wood pulp covers the most important industrial use of chlorine dioxide and gives an indication of the economics of its use.
