description Product Description
n-Pentane is widely used as a solvent in various industries due to its ability to dissolve oils, fats, and waxes effectively. It is commonly employed in the production of polystyrene foam, where it acts as a blowing agent to create lightweight and insulating materials. In laboratories, it serves as a non-polar solvent for chemical reactions and extractions. Additionally, n-Pentane is utilized in the manufacturing of low-temperature thermometers and as a fuel component in some blends. Its low boiling point makes it suitable for applications requiring rapid evaporation, such as in cleaning agents and adhesives.
