Cyclohexane (CAS No. 110-82-7) is a colorless, non-polar, and highly flammable liquid with a distinctive, sweet odor. This cyclic alkane is primarily derived from benzene through hydrogenation or directly from petroleum fractions. Its stable ring structure makes it an invaluable solvent and an intermediate in various chemical syntheses.
How is cyclohexane used in industry?
Nylon Production:
Cyclohexane serves as a critical precursor in the production of nylon 6 and nylon 66, two of the most widely used synthetic polymers. It undergoes conversion to adipic acid and caprolactam, which then polymerize to form the strong, versatile nylon fibers found in clothing, carpets, and engineering plastics.
Solvent Powerhouse:
Cyclohexane's non-polar nature makes it an effective solvent for a variety of materials. It readily dissolves fats, oils, waxes, resins, and bitumen, finding applications in:
Paint and Varnish Removal: Commercial paint removers often utilize cyclohexane to dissolve paint layers for easier removal.
Essential Oil Extraction: The non-polar nature of cyclohexane allows it to effectively extract essential oils from plant materials.
Adhesives and Coatings: Cyclohexane plays a role in the manufacturing process of certain adhesives and coatings, aiding in their application and performance.
