Hexane，it appears as colorless volatile liquid, being insoluble in water, soluble in ethanol and easily soluble in ether, chloroform, ketones and other organic solvents.

It can be applied to solvent, extraction, organic synthesis, such as for the cleaning in the electronics industry, as extractant in the pharmaceutical industry and the extraction agent of edible vegetable oil.

Used as extraction solvent.

It is mainly used as solvents, such as vegetable oil extraction solvent, propylene polymerization solvent, rubber and paint solvents, pigment diluents. It is used for the extraction of oil fat contained in soybean, rice bran, cottonseed and spices. It is also a high-octane fuel.

It can be used for determination of moisture in the methanol. It can be used for UV spectrum analysis, pesticide residue analysis, high performance liquid chromatography analysis (HPLC). It can be used as standard for Gas Chromatographic Analysis. Used for biochemical studies, and protein sequencing, determination of mineral refractive index as well as organic synthesis. It can also used as substitute of mercury in a thermometer.

For analysis reagents and solvents.
