Gneebio is a premier global supplier of p-Xylene, also known as P-Xylene or 1,4-Dimethylbenzene. As a critically important aromatic hydrocarbon, our Para-xylene is produced to the highest purity standards, ensuring consistent quality and a reliable, large-volume supply for the global polyester industry and other key sectors.
p-Xylene (CAS 106-42-3): Chemical Properties
- Appearance: Colorless liquid
- Odor: Sweet, aromatic
- Density: 0.861 g/cm³ at 20°C
- Melting Point: 13.2°C (55.8°F)
- Boiling Point: 138.4°C (281.1°F)
- Solubility: Practically insoluble in water (0.2 mg/mL at 20°C), but soluble in ethanol, ether, acetone, and chloroform
These characteristics make it a versatile solvent and raw material, supplied by a trusted p-Xylene supplier in China.
p-Xylene (CAS 106-42-3): Applications
p-Xylene's unique structure makes it an indispensable compound, primarily dominating the polyester value chain:
Terephthalic Acid (PTA) & Dimethyl Terephthalate (DMT) Production:
This is the overwhelmingly largest application. p-Xylene is oxidized to produce PTA or esterified to DMT, both of which are key monomers for polyester.
Polyester Fibers & Films:
PTA and DMT are used to manufacture polyethylene terephthalate (PET) polymers, which are then spun into polyester fibers for textiles and industrial applications, and cast into films for packaging and other uses.
PET Resins & Plastic Bottles:
PET is widely used for producing lightweight, recyclable plastic bottles for beverages, as well as containers for food and other consumer goods.
Solvent:
While its primary use is as a feedstock, p-Xylene can also serve as a solvent in specialized applications, similar to other xylene isomers.
As a reliable Para-xylene manufacturer and supplier, we provide CAS 106-42-3 with strict quality control, stable large-volume supply, and comprehensive export documentation for international buyers.
