Product Description

n-Heptane is a colorless liquid hydrocarbon with a characteristic odor. It is a straight-chain alkane and is one of the main components of gasoline. n-Heptane is typically produced from the fractional distillation of petroleum or crude oil refining processes. It is widely used as a solvent in various industrial applications due to its low toxicity, low reactivity, and relatively high volatility. n-Heptane is commonly employed as a standard reference material in laboratory testing and calibration procedures, particularly in the field of chromatography. It is also used as a solvent for oil extraction, cleaning agent for electronic components, and in the manufacture of rubber and adhesives. Additionally, n-Heptane serves as a fuel for research engines and in the automotive industry for testing engine performance and emissions.

However, it should be handled with care as it is flammable and can form explosive mixtures with air. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, should be observed when working with n-Heptane
