What is Phosphorus Trichloride (PCl₃)?
Phosphorus trichloride is a phosphorus-based chemical widely used in the production of phosphorous compounds such as phosphites, pesticides, flame retardants, plasticizers, and other industrial chemicals. It is a colorless to slightly yellow fuming liquid with a pungent odor and is highly reactive with water. PCl₃ plays a key role as an intermediate in the agrochemical and chemical industries.

Production Process of Phosphorus Trichloride:
The production of phosphorus trichloride typically involves the direct chlorination of white phosphorus using chlorine gas. The main steps include:
-
Preparation of Raw Materials: White phosphorus and chlorine gas are sourced with high purity.
-
Chlorination Reaction: White phosphorus is reacted with chlorine under controlled temperature and pressure to produce phosphorus trichloride.
-
Condensation & Collection: The gaseous PCl₃ is condensed into liquid form using cooling systems.
-
Purification: The crude PCl₃ is purified to remove residual phosphorus and by-products.
-
Storage & Packaging: The final product is stored in corrosion-resistant containers and prepared for transportation.
Key Aspects to Setup a Phosphorus Trichloride Production Plant:
-
Location & Land Selection: Choose a location with access to raw materials, transportation, and utilities.
-
Market Research & Feasibility Study: Assess demand for PCl₃ and related phosphorus compounds.
