Note: Colorless crystalline alcohol used in making synthetic resins, paints, adhesives, and varnishes. Reacting pentaerythritol with nitric acid creates pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), a highly explosive organic compound related to nitroglycerine.

| Dutch ..... Kleurloze, kristallijne alcohol die wordt gebruikt bij het maken van synthetische harsen, verf, kleefmiddelen en vernis. Bij de reactie tussen pentaerythritol en salpeterzuur ontstaat pentaerythritol-tetranitraat (PETN), een zeer explosieve organische verbinding die verwant is aan nitroglycerine. |
