Description

Cyclohexane CAS NO 110-82-7 is a key alicyclic hydrocarbon, widely recognized as a versatile and essential non-polar solvent in industrial chemistry. Its primary value lies in its excellent solvency for a range of organic compounds, coupled with its relatively low toxicity and straightforward handling profile. This makes it a critical raw material and process solvent for manufacturers in the polymer, pharmaceutical, and chemical synthesis sectors, where consistent quality and reliable supply are paramount.

Application

• Nylon 6 and Nylon 66 Production: Serves as the primary feedstock for the production of adipic acid and caprolactam, the essential monomers for these polyamides.
• Industrial Solvent: Used extensively as a non-polar solvent for resins, fats, waxes, and oils in coatings, adhesives, and extraction processes.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: A crucial starting material for synthesizing various cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, and other derivatives used in perfumes, plastics, and pharmaceuticals.
• Polymer & Resin Manufacturing: Acts as a solvent and reaction medium in the production of polystyrene and other polymers.
• Laboratory & Analytical Chemistry: Employed as a standard solvent and reagent in research, development, and quality control laboratories.
• Paint & Varnish Thinner: Functions as an effective thinner and cleaning agent in the paint and coatings industry.
• Extraction Processes: Utilized in the extraction of essential oils and other natural products.

Quality Control

Our Cyclohexane is manufactured under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive quality assurance, with product specifications meeting or exceeding standard industrial and reagent-grade requirements. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is available for every batch upon request, supporting your quality and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep containers tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain product integrity. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
