CAS 110-54-3: Hexane

Description:Hexane is a colorless, flammable liquid hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C6H14, belonging to the alkane family. It is characterized by its low viscosity and relatively low boiling point, which makes it a useful solvent in various industrial applications, including extraction processes and as a cleaning agent. Hexane is non-polar, which allows it to dissolve non-polar substances effectively, making it valuable in laboratories and manufacturing. Its molecular structure consists of a straight-chain of six carbon atoms, with hydrogen atoms filling the remaining valences. Hexane is known for its relatively low toxicity compared to other organic solvents, but it can still pose health risks, including neurological effects with prolonged exposure. Additionally, it has a distinct odor, often described as similar to gasoline. Due to its flammability, hexane must be handled with care, adhering to safety protocols to prevent fire hazards. Its applications extend to the food industry, where it is used in the extraction of edible oils, highlighting its versatility as a chemical solvent.
