The 95% isohexane standard refers to the standard that the purity of isohexane reaches 95%. Isohexane is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H14, also known as n-hexane. It is a colorless liquid, often used as a solvent, with a low boiling point and flash point. The 95% isohexane standard means that the content of impurities in the isohexane solvent does not exceed 5%. This standard ensures the purity and quality of the isohexane solvent, and ensures its reliability and safety in chemical experiments, industrial production and other applications.
Isohexane is an anhydrous transparent liquid, a volatile liquid, and an industrial cleaning solvent. It is incompatible with water.
Uses of isohexane: Isohexane is an industrial cleaning agent with a low flash point. It is an indispensable solvent in the industrial field. It is generally used to clean hardware materials and remove oil stains on the surface of precision machinery. It can also be used as a diluent. Compared with other solvents, its odor is relatively small.
1. Cleaning industry
Isohexane belongs to the alkane solvent oil. Through the hydrogenation refining process, it has the characteristics of low aromaticity, low distillation, narrow process, colorless and non-toxic. In the cleaning agent industry, isohexane is mainly used for cleaning precision instruments, such as circuit boards, mobile phones and other electronic products, and can also be used as clothing cleaning agents. Isohexane will not be absorbed into the human body through the respiratory tract, skin and gastrointestinal tract to cause dizziness and anesthesia.
2. Aerosol use
Aerosol is an aerosol-type product produced in the modern fine chemical industry. It is small in size, easy to carry, simple to use, and the sprayed material is very fine and evenly distributed, which can give full play to the application effect. Among them, the raw materials for making aerosols contain isohexane.
3. Gas chromatography analysis
The gas chromatograph uses a high-efficiency physical separation technology. It is used in analytical chemistry and combined with appropriate detection methods to become a chromatographic analysis method. The separation principle of chromatography is to use the different affinity of the various substances to be separated in the two phases, such as the distribution coefficient, adsorption capacity, etc. to separate. Among them, the standard used to detect gas chromatography analysis contains isohexane.
4. Paint industry
Isohexane has good performance, good solubility, good safety and other characteristics. Therefore, it is widely used in the paint industry, mainly as an extraction diluent.
