Product Description

n-Heptane is used as a non-polar solvent. It is a liquid chemical formulated in our state of the art production premises with the help of advanced analytical techniques. This is widely used to dissolve oil for showing the presence of organic compounds on a stained paper. Owing to its pure and efficacious chemical composition, it is widely used in chemical laboratories. n-Heptane comes in different packaging options. It can be purchased from us at a cost-effective price. Pharmaceutical Grade or Pharma Grade refers to the manufacturing processes used by pharmaceutical companies that produce drugs and other medications. All drugs produced within the pharmaceutical industry undergo a series of controlled clinical trials and rigorous approval processes by the FDA to demonstrate safety and efficacy for public use.

Pentane is the main foam blowing agent used in the production of polystyrene foam and other foams. Typically, blends of n-, iso- and Cyclopentane are used for this purpose.
●Manufactured with aluminum foil facing or corrugated metal sheet on both or either sides to be used as thermal insulation sandwich panel.
●n-Pentane is used as blowing agent; Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC’s) haven’t been used in manufacturing of this product.
●n-Pentane blowing agent has ZERO ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and low GWP (Global Warming Potential)

Sandwich panels, built with a polyurethane panel adhered by both side to a metallic cover, are an optimal solution for all kind of enclosures, decks, roof waterproofing and sheds. These PU panels are widely used in building construction for facade cladding or roof covers as well as for cold stores as thermal and acoustic insulation. For many years PU industry uses n-Pentane as blowing agent for the manufacturing of the sandwich panel. n-Pentane is a hydrocarbon rated by the CLP regulation as a flammable liquid of category 1, current global situation showing shortage and delays with raw materials, having bigger safety stock may represent a competitive advantage ensuring customer commitment, lead time and quality.

Pentane is a flammable blowing agent that offgases from product, yet EPA document 540/3-90-020 states that 85% of the pentane is emitted within 48 hours of the start of the expansion process in the factory, with the remainder emitted over time. Considering manufacturer’s curing process, the vast majority of the 15% remainder of the pentane should be emitted prior to shipment, with the remainder being emitted during subsequent shipment, storage, and usage. Cyclopentane is a liquid below 120°F and isopentane liquefies at 82°F; n-pentane remains in a gaseous state above 97°F.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC):
Pentane: EPS manufacturing uses beads as a raw material, and EPS beads typically contain 4%-7% pentane by weight, which is defined as a VOC by the EPA. EPA document 540/3-90-020 states that 85% of the pentane contained in the EPS bead is emitted within 48 hours starting with the expansion process (which occurs within the manufacturing facility). The remaining pentane is released over time, there is likely negligible pentane content in the foam by the time of installation.
Styrene: Styrene is considered a VOC by the EPA. While Certificates of Analysis from bead suppliers typically do not state a styrene monomer content of EPS bead, several EPS bead suppliers have established that EPS beads typically contain styrene monomer, 900 to 1000 ppm by weight. After pre-expansion and expansion of beads, concentration should be considerably reduced.

What is Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)?
Expanded PolyStyrene (EPS) is a white foam plastic material produced from solid beads of polystyrene. It is primarily used for packaging, insulation, etc. It is a closed-cell, rigid foam material produced from:
Styrene – which forms the cellular structure
Pentane – which is used as a blowing agent
Polystyrene is produced from crude oil refinery product styrene. For manufacturing expanded polystyrene, the polystyrene beads are impregnated with the foaming agent pentane. Polystyrene granulate is prefoamed at temperatures above 90°C. Both styrene and pentane are hydrocarbon compounds and are obtained from petroleum and natural gas byproducts.
EPS is very lightweight with very low thermal conductivity, low moisture absorption and excellent cushioning properties. One of the serious limitations of polystyrene foam is its rather low maximum operating temperature ~80°C. Its physical properties do not change within its service temperature range (i.e. up to 167°F/75°C) for long-term temperature exposure.
Its chemical resistance is nearly equivalent to the material upon which it is based – polystyrene.
EPS is 98% air and it is recyclable.

What is the chemical name of Pentane?
General pentane (hereafter, pentane) is a colorless, volatile and flammable liquid with a sweet or gasoline-like odor. Pentane consists of three isomers: n-Pentane (the most important isomer), isopentane, and neopentane. n-Pentane is a constituent of crude oil and a component of the condensate from natural gas production.

Is pentane a blowing agent?
Blowing agent Pentane is a hydrocarbon solvent coming directly from the natural gas and crude oil. Pentane as blowing agent in (PUR) insulation foam : N-Pentane (CAS : 78-78-4).

What is the average cost of foam insulation?
The national average cost to fully insulate a home with spray foam is $10,000 to $30,000. Most homeowners spend around $20,000 on a mixture of open and closed cell insulation 6 inches thick in an existing 2,000 sq.ft. home. This project’s low cost is around $6,000 for 4 inches of open cell foam covering the attic floor.
