Anthracene is a solid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) of formula C14H10, consisting of three fused benzene rings. It is a component of coal tar. Anthracene is used in the production of the red dye alizarin and other dyes. Anthracene is colorless but exhibits a blue (400–500 nm peak) fluorescence under ultraviolet radiation.
Anthracene is a tricyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derived from coal tar which is insoluble in water but is soluble in most organic solvents such as carbon disulfide, alcohols, benzene, chloroform, and hydronaphthalenes. It is used as an intermediate compound for the manufacturing of dyes and polyradicals used to make resins. Anthracene is to also be used as a diluent for wood protection products, an insecticide, or a fungicide, and as an organic crystallized photoconductor used in electrophotography.
Anthracene, a wide band-gap organic semiconductor is used as a scintillator for detectors of high energy photons, electrons, and alpha particles. Plastics, such as polyvinyl toluene, can be doped with anthracene to produce a plastic scintillator that is approximately water-equivalent for use in radiation therapy dosimetry. Anthracene’s emission spectrum peaks at between 400 nm and 440 nm.
It is also used in wood preservatives, insecticides, and coating materials.
Anthracene is commonly used as a UV tracer in conformal coatings applied to printed wiring boards. The anthracene tracer allows the conformal coating to be inspected under UV light. Anthracene is also used in the manufacturing of anthraquinone.
