1,4-Dichlorobenzene
1,4-Dichlorobenzene is a halogen-containing chemical substance identified by its named positional structure.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
1,4-Dichlorobenzene (p-DCB, para-dichlorobenzene) is an organic compound with the formula C6H4Cl2. This colorless solid has a strong odor. In terms of its structure, the molecule consists of two chlorine atoms substituted for hydrogen at opposing sites on a benzene ring. The p-DCB is used a pesticide and a deodorant, most familiarly in mothballs in which it is a replacement for the more traditional naphthalene. p-DCB is also used as a precursor in the production of the polymer poly(p-phenylene sulfide).
The full named identity, positional or stereochemical form, assay basis, impurity profile and supplied form define 1,4-Dichlorobenzene. Material qualification and downstream formulation acceptance are distinct requirements; report segmentation is not a supplier specification.
The commercial boundary
Use the selected edition’s stated product level, geography, years and measurement basis. Materials, components, finished systems and services are separate commercial boundaries unless that edition explicitly combines them.
