Abstract
AbstractSulfur is a component of many industrially useful compounds, particularly process intermediates. Other sulfur compounds are important because of air pollution considerations, coming from natural sources (COS, SO2, H2S) as well as manmade. Carbon sulfides, carbonyl sulfide, thiophosgene, trichloromethanesulfenyl chloride, hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen polysulfides (sulfanes) and their salts, sulfur halides and oxyhalides, sulfur nitrides, sulfur oxides, sulfur oxygen acids and their salts, thiocyanic acid and its salts, methanesulfonyl chloride, and methanesulfonic acid are all discussed, along with properties, manufacture, shipment and storage, economic aspects, analytical methods, grades and specifications, health and safety, and uses in making agricultural pesticides, pharmaceuticals, food chemicals, oil additives, plastics and plastic additives, and refining catalysts. Elemental sulfur, sulfuric acid, sulfur trioxide, carbon disulfide, thiosulfates and sulfur removal from natural gas are discussed in separate articles in thisEncyclopedia.
