Description

1-Pentene is a fundamental α-olefin monomer and a versatile building block in industrial organic synthesis. Its high reactivity and linear structure make it a critical raw material for producing a wide range of polymers, synthetic lubricants, and fine chemicals. This product is essential for manufacturers in the polymer, petrochemical, and specialty chemical industries seeking a reliable, high-purity feedstock.

Application

• Polymer & Copolymer Production: A key comonomer for the manufacture of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and other polyolefins, influencing density and mechanical properties.
• Synthetic Lubricant Base Stocks: Used in the synthesis of polyalphaolefins (PAOs), which are high-performance synthetic lubricants with excellent thermal stability and viscosity indices.
• Organic Synthesis Intermediate: Serves as a precursor for alcohols, oxides, and other derivatives used in flavors, fragrances, and pharmaceuticals.
• Gasoline & Fuel Additives: Acts as an alkylating agent and an octane booster in refinery processes and fuel formulations.
• Chemical Research & Development: Employed as a standard reagent and model compound in catalytic studies and material science research.

Quality Control

Our 1-Pentene is produced and handled under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) for each lot, detailing key parameters such as assay, isomer content, and impurity profiles. Our quality commitment aligns with global standards for industrial chemical manufacturing, ensuring reliability for your critical processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and flammable nature, store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Keep container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) when not in use to prevent oxidation and moisture ingress. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C (36-46°F) to minimize evaporation and polymerization potential.
