CEH: Organometallics

Aug 2020. The main product categories covered in this report are organotins, organoaluminums, organomagnesiums, and organolithiums. Nonbiocidal organotins are used largely as additives for polyvinyl chloride (PVC), but also in catalysis of several products, including rigid polyurethanes and silicones. Biocidal organotins are used in agriculture as fungicides and miticides, and as preservatives/antifoulants on wood surfaces, in closed-circuit cooling towers, and in marine paints. Organoaluminums are used primarily as catalysts for the synthesis of polymers, including polypropylene, polyethylene, and several elastomers. Organomagnesiums are used as catalysts for polyolefin production, while organolithiums are used as catalysts for polybutadiene elastomer production; both are used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals.
