Description

Alkanes, C7-10-iso- is a high-purity, branched-chain hydrocarbon mixture primarily consisting of isoalkanes in the C7 to C10 carbon range. This product is valued for its excellent solvency, low odor, and high chemical stability, making it a superior alternative to linear alkanes in demanding formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the adhesives, coatings, personal care, and specialty cleaning industries seeking consistent performance and reliable supply. Our product, CAS NO 90622-56-3, is supplied with full traceability and quality documentation.

Application

• Solvent & Carrier Fluid: Used as a low-volatility, high-solvency carrier in industrial adhesives, sealants, and specialty coatings.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Serves as an emollient and solvent in formulations for deodorants, hair sprays, and makeup, prized for its skin feel and low irritation potential.
• Metalworking & Lubricants: Acts as a base oil or additive in synthetic lubricants, metalworking fluids, and corrosion inhibitors due to its thermal and oxidative stability.
• Specialty Cleaning: Employed as a key ingredient in precision cleaning agents for electronics, optics, and aerospace components where residue-free evaporation is critical.
• Polymer & Rubber Processing: Functions as a plasticizer and processing aid in the manufacture of synthetic rubbers and polymers.
• Chemical Synthesis: Utilized as a reaction medium or feedstock in organic synthesis and catalytic processes.

Quality Control

Our Alkanes, C7-10-iso- is produced under a stringent quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) for hydrocarbon distribution and purity, to ensure it meets precise specifications for critical parameters like boiling range, flash point, and aniline point. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and open flame. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and minimize moisture pickup.
