What is MCH solvent?
MCH solvent is methylcyclohexane CAS 108-87-2. Methy! Cyclohexane is a saturated aicyclic hydrocarbon consisting of a cyclohexane ring with a single methyl group attached, commonly used asan industrial solvent and in organic synthesis.
Methyl Cyclohexane is valued for its low polarity, high volatility, and inert chemical nature, making it suitable for use in coatings, adhesives, and fuel formulations. MCH solvent is also used as a reference compound in petrochemical analysis and octane number studies due to its wel-characterized combustion behavior.

What is MCH solvent used for?
- Industrial Solvents: Methyl Cyclohexane (MCH) is used as a thinner for alkyd resins, acrylic coatings, and industrial adhesives; removes oil stains from metal surfaces (e.g., automotive parts, mechanical components).
- Extraction & Separation: Food-grade MCH extracts plant oils (e.g., soybean oil, essential oils).
- Chemical Synthesis: Intermediate for producing cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, methylcyclohexanol, and other fine chemicals; used as a reaction medium in organic synthesis.
- Other Fields: Fuel additive (improves gasoline octane number); laboratory reagent (solvent for chromatography); plasticizer diluent in PVC processing.
