Introduction to the properties of hexane

Hexane, also known as 2-methylpentane, is a colorless, transparent, and volatile liquid. Its melting point is -96.7℃, its boiling point is 60.4℃, and its relative molecular mass is 86.2 ℃. In chemical structure, the molecule of hexane contains a carbon-carbon double bond, which is easy to react. Hexane is less toxic to humans and is less likely to cause cancer and other health problems.

Introduction of hexane use

Hexane, as a green solvent, is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, printing, coating, cosmetics, household cleaners and other fields. It can replace the traditional flammable and toxic solvents, and has better environmental protection and safety performance. In the pharmaceutical field, hexane can be used as a solvent for drug crystals and plays an important role in the production of preparations. In addition, the cleaning effect of hexane is also very good in the fields of paint and household cleaners.

Third, the advantages of hexane (hexane sds)

1. Environmental safety: hexane has good biodegradability and recyclability, and will not cause pollution to the environment.

2. Strong ability: hexane is chemically active and can dissolve a variety of organic substances.

3. Cheap price: Compared with other solvents, hexane is cheaper and can save costs.

4. Good cleaning effect: The use of alkane cleaning effect is better, can completely remove dirt.

Fourth, whether hexane is a green solvent

Although hexane is not 100% harmless, it has better environmental properties than traditional solvents. Hexane is non-flammable, not easy to cause explosion, has relatively strong solubility, harmless to health and other characteristics are in line with the standard of green solvents. Therefore, hexane should be considered as a green solvent based on environmental and health considerations.

Hexane, as an environmentally friendly solvent, has been widely used and favored by people. The advantages of its physical and chemical properties make hexane a green solvent to replace traditional harmful solvents. The use of hexane has made a positive contribution to environmental protection and is one of the important measures for green production in the future.
