Pentaerythritol finds application in the manufacture of alkyl resin, synthetic rubber, printing inks, stabilisers for plastics, explosives, pharmaceuticals and synthetic lubricants. The petition seeking anti-dumping probe on pentaerythritol imports from Canada, Japan and Taiwan had been filed by Kanoria Chemicals & Industries Ltd.
