1,4-Naphthoquinone is mainly used for the synthesis of pesticide fungicides, dye intermediates, and organic synthesis reagents. Its specific applications are as follows:
Pesticide fungicides:
1,4-Naphthoquinone is a key raw material for the preparation of 2,3-dichloro-1,4-naphthoquinone. This fungicide is widely used to prevent and control wheat smut, rice blast, potato late blight, and vegetable seedling blight. ‌
Dye and pigment:
As a raw material for the synthesis of anthraquinone, 1,4-Nephthoquinone can be converted into anthraquinone intermediates, which are further used in the production of dyes and pigments, and widely used in the fields of textiles, printing and dyeing, and coatings. ‌
Organic synthesis:
1,4-Naphthoquinone is used as a regulator in rubber and resin polymerization, and also as a chemical reagent for laboratory research.

Store in a cool and dry ventilation place. Prevent direct sunlight exposure, avoid mixing with food ingredients, and isolate heat sources and sources of fire.
