n-Hexane(Cat No.:M068641)is a straight-chain alkane with the chemical formula C₆H₁₄, appearing as a colorless, volatile liquid with a mild gasoline-like odor. It is highly flammable and insoluble in water but miscible with many organic solvents. Widely used as a solvent in industrial applications, particularly in rubber manufacturing, adhesives, leather processing, and oil extraction, n-hexane is valued for its low boiling point and effective dissolving power. However, prolonged exposure can cause neurotoxic effects, making proper ventilation and protective equipment essential during use. It is also a component of petroleum-derived fuels and laboratory reagents.
