Molecular Formula of Aluminum phosphide (CAS NO.20859-73-8): AlP
Molecular Weight: 57.9553
Molecular Structure:
Melting Point: 2000°C
Density of Aluminum phosphide (CAS NO.20859-73-8): 2.42 g/cm3
Stability: Flammable solid. Contact with acids liberates highly toxic gas (phosphine). Incompatible with acids, moisture, oxidizing agents.
In October 2002, Sir Derek Bibby, 2nd baronet and great-great-grandson of the founder and past chairman and president of the Bibby Line shipping company, aged 80 and terminally ill with leukaemia, committed suicide by consuming aluminium phosphide - the poison, hours later, caused his body to emit dangerous fumes forcing the evacuation of the hospital department where his body was being held.
In February 2009, two children died in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia after a neighbouring house was fumigated with aluminium phosphide.
Aluminum phosphide (CAS NO.20859-73-8) is used as pesticides and granary fumigation.
