Naphthalene Flakes Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Naphthalin
- Naphthaline
- White Tar
- Tar Camphor
Naphthalene flakes supplier in Malaysia for industrial intermediate buyers. Also known as naphthalin or naphthaline (CAS 91-20-3, C10H8), this white crystalline aromatic is traded for chemical manufacture rather than finished consumer goods.
Commercial forms include refined flakes, powder, molten bulk and crude material. Refined flake is the usual solid industrial grade; powder suits finer charging; molten bulk serves continuous plant feed. Coal-tar and petroleum-derived streams are both traded against the buyer's grade target.
Downstream uses include naphthalene sulphonate condensates for concrete superplasticisers and dye dispersants, phthalic anhydride and resin routes, rubber processing, surfactant manufacture and selected insecticide intermediates. State the process so form and purity can be matched.
Send the required form, grade or crystallising-point preference, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Naphthalene grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Refined naphthalene flakes | crystalline flakes | — | Preferred solid form for naphthalene sulphonate manufacture, phthalic anhydride feed and other intermediate synthesis where flake handling is required. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Naphthalene powder | crystalline powder | — | Charging and blending where a finer solid form suits the process plant or intermediate formulation step. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Molten naphthalene | molten bulk liquid on delivery | — | Continuous feed for larger sulphonation, anhydride and intermediate plants set up for molten aromatic handling. | Confirm bulk handling and delivery arrangement with the quotation. |
| Crude naphthalene | lower-purity solid or molten crude | — | Upstream feedstock where the buyer refines or further processes the material against an agreed crude specification. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Safety and handling
Keep sealed, cool and dry, away from ignition sources and incompatible materials. Control vapour and dust during handling. Supply is subject to applicable requirements. Follow the safety information for the quoted grade.
Common questions about naphthalene
Is this page for industrial naphthalene or consumer moth repellents?
This page covers refined and crude naphthalene as a chemical intermediate for manufacture, not finished consumer products. Buyers should request flakes, powder, molten or crude material against an industrial grade and application.
Which naphthalene form should I request?
Refined flakes are the common solid industrial form for sulphonate and many intermediate plants. Powder suits finer charging, molten bulk suits continuous large-scale feed, and crude grades are selected when the buyer will refine or further process the feedstock.
What specifications should a naphthalene buyer provide?
State form, intended application and any required crystallising point, purity or impurity limits from your process. If you already run a grade, include that specification so the quotation can be matched more closely. Do not rely on generic catalogue figures alone.
Can naphthalene be used for naphthalene sulphonate dispersants?
Yes. Refined naphthalene is a standard feedstock for naphthalene sulphonate formaldehyde condensates used as concrete superplasticisers and dye dispersants. Describe the condensate route and grade targets when you enquire.
Do you supply molten naphthalene as well as flakes?
Molten bulk is a genuine traded form for plants equipped for molten aromatic feed. Flake and powder remain the usual solid options. State preferred form, quantity and site handling constraints so delivery can be assessed with the quotation.
What details are needed for a naphthalene price enquiry?
Provide form or grade, application, target specification, quantity and delivery location. Mention any preferred packing or bulk arrangement and documentation needs so the quotation can cover the full requirement.
