Description | C13-15 Alkane is a mixture of straight-chain hydrocarbons that contains carbon atoms ranging from 13 to 15. These hydrocarbons are typically derived from petroleum sources and are commonly used as solvents and diluents in various industrial applications. C13-15 Alkane is a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint odor. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, and benzene. This mixture has a low volatility and low flammability, making it a suitable solvent for high solids coatings, adhesives, and sealants. Due to its low toxicity and non-reactive nature, C13-15 Alkane is often used as a replacement for more hazardous solvents such as xylene, toluene, and methyl ethyl ketone. It is also used as a carrier solvent in agricultural formulations, as well as a component in personal care and cosmetic products. |
