Pentaerythritol is a white, crystalline, water-soluble organic powder (in powder form) with the formula C5H12O4. Pentaerythritol is an alcohol with four hydroxyl groups. It is manufactured using acetaldehyde and formaldehyde through the aldol condensation process, which is followed by a crossed cannizzaro reaction. Components of alkyd resins, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) stablizers, varnishes, tall oil esters and olefin antioxidants are some of the derivatives of pentaerythritol.
Pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) is widely used as high explosive (with a relative effectiveness factor of 1.66) and as a vasodilator in treating angina pectoris, as a mixture with minor additives and RDX; it forms another plastic explosive named semtex. Pentaerythritol tetra-oleate, pentaerythritol tetrastearate, pentaerythrityl tetraisostearate, pentaerythritol tetracaprylate/caprate, pentaerythritol mono-oleate are some forms of pentaerythritol esters.
pentaerythritol market is the use of pentaerythritol for automobile industry applications such as coatings, interiors, and high-grade lubricants. Pentaerythritol is also used in the synthesis of polyurethane foams, which are used in automobile interiors. Pentaerythritol finds its use in various industries such as paints, automobiles, construction and others. Increasing use of alkyd paints in automotive and construction industry, especially in developing countries, is anticipated to lead the growth for the pentaerythritol market.
