CAS 108-94-1 Cyclohexanone was first synthesised in 1867 by the German chemist August Wilhelm Hofmann through the oxidation of cyclohexane. Commercial-scale production of cyclohexanone began in the early 20^(th) century and has grown significantly, especially due to its role in nylon production after World War II.
Currently, cyclohexanone (CAS No. 108-94-1) is widely used as a solvent and chemical intermediate in various industries.
Product Introduction
Cyclohexanone is the organic compound with the formula (CH2)5CO. The molecule consists of six-carbon cyclic molecule with a ketone functional group. This colorless oil has an odor reminiscent of that of acetone. Over time, samples of cyclohexanone assume a yellow color.
CYC is slightly soluble in water and miscible with common organic solvents. Billions of kilograms are produced annually, mainly as a precursor to nylon.
CAS No. 108-94-1 Cyclohexanone Applications
Nylon production
Cyclohexanone chemical is a key intermediate in the production of nylon 6 and nylon 66, which are synthesised from adipic acid and caprolactam.
It is used to create polyamide fibres, resins and plastics for textiles, automotive parts and packaging materials.
Solvent applications:
Paints and coatings: It is used as a solvent in the formulation of paints, varnishes and coatings to enhance flow and application properties.
Adhesives: It acts as a solvent in the manufacture of strong-bonding adhesives for industrial and consumer products.
Dyes and pigments: Used as a solvent in dye and pigment formulations to improve solubility and application performance.
Resins and polymers: Cyclohexanone (CAS No. 108-94-1) dissolves various resins and polymers, making it suitable for specialised coatings and films.
Chemical intermediate:
It is a precursor for chemical synthesis, including the production of herbicides, insecticides and other agrochemicals.
