Cyclohexanone is a high-solvency cyclic ketone and a critical chemical intermediate in the production of synthetic fibers like Nylon 6 and Nylon 6,6. Our 99.5% Purity Grade ensures high conversion rates and minimal impurities in chemical synthesis.

This colorless, oily liquid possesses a characteristic peppermint-like odor and is an excellent solvent for a wide variety of natural and synthetic resins. It is particularly valued for its high boiling point and controlled evaporation in industrial coating systems.

In the CASE sector, it functions as a powerful solvent for PVC and vinyl copolymers, facilitating strong bonds in adhesives and surface treatments. Our product is strictly monitored for moisture and acidity, making it reliable for sensitive manufacturing processes.

Cyclohexanone
  • Adipic Acid Production: Serves as a primary raw material in the synthesis of adipic acid and caprolactam for the global nylon industry.
  • PVC Adhesives: Used as a key solvent in pipe cements and vinyl adhesives due to its ability to partially dissolve and bond PVC surfaces.
  • Insecticide Formulation: Functions as a solvent carrier in agricultural chemical formulations to improve active ingredient stability.

Classified as a Flammable Liquid and Harmful if Inhaled. Causes serious eye damage and skin irritation; mandate the use of organic vapor respirators, chemical goggles, and nitrile gloves.
