Dec 30, 2025 Leave a message

CAS 109-66-0 n-Pentane is an aliphatic hydrocarbon, flammable, with a low flash point and auto-ignition temperature. It burns in air to produce carbon dioxide and water. Its structure is simple, and n-pentane is reactive with most common organic compounds.

 

What is an example of a pentane product?

Polystyrene (both EPS and XPS) are excellent examples. In order to create foams, manufacturers need some sort of blowing agent. Pentane is that agent. Pentane is the primary blowing agent for manufacturing polystyrene beads and granules.

 

  • EPS Insulation Boards (used in building walls, roofs, and foundations).
  • EPS Packaging (e.g., protective packaging for electronics, foam coolers/boxes).
  • EPS Geofoam (used in civil engineering for lightweight fill).

What is the difference between pentane and N-pentane?

Pentane is an alkane with the chemical formula C5H12. The three structural isomers of pentane are n-pentane, isopentane, and neopentane. Although these three similar compounds are often sold as a mixture of the three, the isomers have different boiling and melting points. It is important to note that the IUPAC name for pentane is n-pentane. To avoid confusion when purchasing pentane, check the SDS or technical data sheet to ensure that you are ordering the correct isomer or mixture.
