O-Phthalic anhydride is formed by phthalic acid molecular through dehydration. O-phthalic anhydride is made fromnaphthalenemixed with air through the process of 350~360C vapor phase oxidation catalyzed by vanadium pentoxide,.Phthalic anhydride is in the shape of white scalycrystalline powder. It is an important organic chemical materialmainly used in the production of plasticizer, alkyd resin, dye, unsaturated resinsome ofmedicines or pesticides.
