Triethyl phosphate is a colorless transparent liquid with a slightly fruity taste and is easily soluble in water, ethanol, ether benzene and other organic solvents. Triethyl phosphate is stable at room temperature and hydrolyzes slowly when heated. It is a high boiling point solvent, often used as a plasticizer for rubber and plastics, and is also a raw material for preparing pesticides.

Triethyl phosphate is a high boiling point solvent and plasticizer for rubber and plastics as well as a catalyst. It is also used as a raw material for the preparation of pesticides and as an ethylation agent for the production of vinyl ketone. In Japan, 70% of the product is used as catalyst and about 20% as solvent. 1. Catalyst: xylene isomer catalyst; Olefin polymerization catalyst; Catalyst for producing tetraethyl lead; Catalyst for producing carbodiimide; Trialkyl boron and olefin replacement reaction catalyst; Catalysts for dehydration of acetic acid at high temperature to produce ketene: polymerization catalysts for styrene and conjugated diene compounds; If used for the polymerization of terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol, it can prevent the fiber from discoloring. 2. Solvent: solvent of cellulose nitrate and cellulose acetate; Solvent used to maintain the life of organic peroxide catalyst; Solvent for dispersing ethylene fluoride; Used as peroxide and diluent for curing catalyst of polyester resin and epoxy resin. 3. Stabilizer: chlorine insecticide and stabilizer; Phenolic resin stabilizer; Sugar alcohol resin solid preparation. 4. Synthetic resin: xylenol formaldehyde resin curing agent; Phenolic resin softener for shell molding; Vinyl chloride softener; Vinyl acetate polymer plasticizer; Polyester resin flame retardant. 5. Triethyl phosphate (flame retardant TEP) is a high boiling point solvent, a plasticizer for rubber and plastics, and also used as a raw material for the preparation of pesticides, ethylation reagents and the production of vinyl ketone.
When transporting triethyl phosphate, the transport vehicles shall be equipped with corresponding types and quantities of fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. It is better to transport in the morning and evening in summer. The transport vehicles should be equipped with grounding chains during transportation. Holes and baffles can be set in the grooves to reduce static electricity generated by vibration. Do not mix with oxidants, alkalis and edible chemicals. During transportation, avoid sunshine, rain and high temperature, and stay away from kindling, heat source and high temperature area during stopover. The exhaust pipe of the vehicle carrying goods must be equipped with flame retardant devices. It is forbidden to use mechanical equipment and tools that are easy to generate sparks for loading and unloading. Road transportation should follow the prescribed route, and do not stay in residential areas and densely populated areas. During railway transportation, it is forbidden to slide the car, and it is forbidden to transport in bulk with wooden boats and cement boats.
