N-Pentane
Other name: Pentane, Skellysolve A, Hydrocarbons, C5-rich, Pentanen, Pentani, Tetrafume, Tetrakil. CAS №: 109-66-0 Molecular formula:C5H12 N-Pentane is a pentane isomer with straight chain normal structure. It is a clear, colorless solution with a mild and gasoline-like odor. N-pentane is a low-boiling solvent, which greatly increases the safety demands to work with it. N-pentane is often used to produce: • lighter fluid, • blowtorch fuels, • petroleum products, • propellants. N-pentane can be used as a foaming and desorption agent. Physical properties
