Manufacturing Process
Isohexanes are obtained by processing the C6 petroleum fraction with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. The product is derived from aliphatic sources and hence has low aromatic content.
Industry Applications
Due to its nature and properties, Isohexane is used as a solvent in numerous industries for multiple applications such as coatings, adhesives, oil and gas production, hydraulic fracturing, etc. It is also used as a drilling fluid and a solvent for organic synthesis. Isohexane is used to manufacture glues used for shoes, leather products, roofing, furniture and textile manufacturing.
The uses also cover its application in construction and building materials, adhesives and adhesive removers, arts and crafts office supplies, home maintenance paint-related products, vehicle body, engine maintenance auto fluids additives and engine maintenance motor oil.
Used for its lubricative properties, this petroleum-based chemical product is widely preferred in numerous sectors across industries.
Isohexane is an organic compound, is colorless liquid, can be mixed and dissolved with acetone, benzene, chloroform, heptane, is soluble in ethanol and ether, is insoluble in water, has irritation, is mainly used for solvents for polymerization, cleaning and oil releasing agents of precise instruments and meters, essential oil diluents and the like, is mainly used in the product fields of nontoxic sprays, solvents, cleaning agents and the like, currently, isohexane is produced in partial oil refineries at home, the annual output is more than ten thousand tons, the isohexane is sold to all over the country on the basis of meeting the consumption of the factory, the sales condition is good, and the price is always in the rising trend in recent years due to the low isohexane output and large market demand; at present, industrial isohexane prepared by autonomous production in China is still in a state of short supply and short demand, and most of isohexane used in industrial production depends on import, which is mainly caused by the fact that the existing isohexane preparation processes have overlong production lines and complicated equipment and operation, so that the preparation cost is high, the production efficiency is low, the processes are not suitable for large-scale production, in addition, the ecological environment is greatly polluted, and good economic benefits cannot be brought, so that the invention provides the isohexane preparation process to solve the problems in the prior art.
