n-Hexane (Industrial Grade)
CAS Number: 110-54-3
Industrial-grade n-hexane (≥95.0%) is a straight-chain aliphatic solvent with fast evaporation, low polarity, and excellent solvency for oils, fats, and non-polar compounds. It is indispensable in vegetable oil extraction, rubber cement formulation, polyolefin synthesis, and laboratory analytical techniques.
