description Product Description
Isooctane is widely used as a reference standard in determining the octane rating of fuels, particularly gasoline. Its high resistance to knocking makes it an essential component in fuel testing to ensure engine performance and efficiency. In the petroleum industry, it is blended with other hydrocarbons to improve the quality of gasoline, enhancing combustion and reducing engine knocking. Additionally, isooctane is utilized in laboratories as a solvent for various chemical reactions and analyses due to its stability and low reactivity. It also plays a role in the formulation of specialty fuels for high-performance engines, such as those used in aviation and racing.
