Description

Cyclopentane is the lightest non-polar cycloalkane solvent used by the chemical industry. Its cyclical structure provides a higher solubility coefficient than branched or linear hydrocarbons, while its low molecular weight results in one of the lowest heat of vaporization values a among non-aromatic hydrocarbon solvents.

Features

• High solubility coefficient

• non polar

• low heat vaporization

Cyclopentane is used as green blowing agent and involved in the production of polyurethane insulating foam, which is used in refrigerators, freezers, water heaters, construction panels, insulated pipes and roofs. As a lubricant, it finds applications in computer hard drives and outer space equipment due to its low volatile nature. It is widely useful in the preparation of resin, adhesives and pharmaceutical intermediate. It is an additive in gasoline. Since it is a halogen free compound and has zero-ozone depletion potential, it replaces the conventionally used chloro fluoro carbon (CFC) in refrigeration and thermal insulation.

The price of EPS products in the Chinese market today is CNY10,122.8/MT, down -0.29% from the previous trading day

Pentane is the most common expansion agent in EPS production. Low concentration of pentane can be trapped during production, inside the closed cells of EPS. By the end of the production cycle, EPS products may still contain 1-2% of Pentane by weight.

What is EPS foam made of?
WHAT IS EPS? Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is a rigid, closed cell, thermoplastic foam material produced from solid beads of polystyrene, which is polymerised from styrene monomer and contains an expansion gas (pentane) dissolved within the polystyrene bead.

expanded polystyrene foam
The foam that you formerly knew as styrofoam is actually expanded polystyrene foam or EPS. This material is made from polystyrene, a plastic that’s often used to make clear products like food packaging or lab equipment.

What are the different types of polystyrene?

REGIONAL ANALYSIS:
The market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America,
and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to hold the largest share in market.
Rise in demand from industrial sector for solvent shall boost the regional market. Asia
Pacific is estimated to hold significant share attributed to large chemical manufacturing
base. High demand from industrial sector for manufacturing polystyrene foam, PU foam
and other products shall foster the market. Europe is expected to show considerable
growth due to the increasing demand for fuel. Increasing production of vehicles is further
rising the demand for fuel. This shall foster the market growth in Europe. Latin America
and Middle East & Africa shall exhibit sluggish growth by the end of forecast period.

N-PENTANE INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENTS
Junyuan Petroleum Group manufactures a wide range of solvents and fluids for industrial use. n-Pentane is one of the solvent available in different composition and is widely used in industrial sector.

Methods to Produce Isoprene by Dehydrogenation

There are two methods to produce isoprene by dehydrogenation: isopentane dehydrogenation and isopentene catalytic dehydrogenation. 1、 Isopentane dehydrogenation method The two-step catalytic dehydrogenation method of isopentane was first developed by the former Soviet Union and was industrialized in 1968. The raw material isopentene used in the isopentene dehydrogenation process is from catalytic cracking or straight-run gasoline. The process is mainly divided into three steps: first, the isopentane is dehydrogenated to isopentene, and a fluidized bed reactor similar to catalytic cracking is used, and the catalyst is spherical chromium-alumina oxide; Then isoprene is obtained by catalytic dehydrogenation of isoprene, and the plate-shaped calcium-nickel-phosphoric acid catalyst and adiabatic fixed-bed reactor are used; Finally, the dehydrogenation product is extracted and distilled with dimethylformamide or acetonitrile in two extractive distillation columns to obtain crude isoprene, and then the high-purity product is obtained after alkali treatment, hydrogenation and acetylene removal. In order to obtain the conversion rate beneficial to industrial production, the reaction must be carried out at high temperature (above 500~600 ℃), resulting in the increase of side reactions such as pyrolysis and isomerization. Therefore, although the raw materials of this method are cheap and easy to obtain, the cost and consumption quota are high, the process for preparing high-purity products is complex, and the development prospect is lacking. At present, only some enterprises in Russia and Eastern Europe apply this method to produce isoprene, with a total production capacity of about 300000 t/a. 2、 There are three isomers of isopentene by catalytic dehydrogenation of isopentene: 2-methyl-1-butene, 2-methyl-2-butene and 3-methyl-1-butene, of which 2-methyl-2-butene is the most suitable precursor for the synthesis of isoprene. In 1961, Shell Company of the United States built a 18000 t/a isoprene production unit using isoprene catalytic dehydrogenation method, and the production capacity of this method has reached 190000 t/a. The process flow is divided into three steps: extracting and separating isopentene from C5 fraction, a by-product of the catalytic cracking unit of the refinery; Isopentene was dehydrogenated at 600 ℃ in a fixed-bed adiabatic reactor using iron oxide, chromium oxide and carbonate catalysts; The dehydrogenation product is extracted, distilled and refined to obtain isoprene product with purity of 99.2%~99.7%. This method can use isopentene (10%~30%) with a wide range of mass fraction as raw material. Among the many methods for producing isoprene, extractive distillation has certain advantages in technology and economy. In economy, only alkenal method can be compared with extractive distillation, and the production cost of other methods is higher. Summary: From an economic point of view, the isoprene dehydrogenation technology developed by the former Soviet Union to produce isoprene has been declining and cannot be compared with the cracking C5 separation method. For the students participating in the chemical design competition, it is even more difficult to check the documents of the former Soviet Union decades ago. Even if they find them, they are still in Russian, and they can’t understand them. From a technical point of view, the reaction part is similar to the catalytic cracking unit, which is extremely complex, with many side reactions, more complex components and great difficulty in product separation. It is conceivable that such a huge workload and technical difficulty will defeat a large number of heroes.
