CAS: 110-54-3 Chemical Formula: C6H14
Hexane (chemical formula C6H14) is a common straight-chain alkane, a colorless, transparent liquid with a faint gasoline-like odor. Due to its low boiling point, high volatility, and good chemical inertness, it is widely used as an extractant, organic solvent, and industrial cleaning solvent. Hexane plays a vital role in oil extraction, chemical synthesis, electronics manufacturing, and the pharmaceutical industry, and is also an irreplaceable basic material in many factory production processes.
