HEXENE-N

Chemical Formula: C?H??
Molecular Weight: 84.16 g/mol

Description:
N-Hexene, also known as 1-Hexene, is a clear, colorless liquid with a mild, pleasant odor. It is an alpha-olefin hydrocarbon primarily obtained by the oligomerization of ethylene. N-Hexene is widely used as a comonomer in the production of polyethylene, as a solvent, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It is flammable and should be handled with proper safety precautions.

Applications:

  • Polymer Industry: Used as a comonomer in the production of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE).

  • Chemical Intermediate: Raw material for manufacturing plasticizers, surfactants, and synthetic lubricants.

  • Solvent: Used in coatings, adhesives, and extraction processes.

  • Laboratory Use: Employed as a reagent and standard hydrocarbon for analytical purposes.
