Cyclohexane

Hexanaphthene (High Purity)

A colorless, flammable liquid with a distinctive detergent-like odor. It is a cycloalkane primarily used as a non-polar solvent and as a raw material for the industrial production of Adipic Acid and Caprolactam, the precursors to Nylon.

CAS Number 110-82-7
H.S. Code 29021100
Appearance Clear Liquid

Product Overview

Cyclohexane is a cycloalkane with the molecular formula C₆H₁₂. It is produced by the hydrogenation of benzene. Due to its unique chemical properties, it is used as a non-polar solvent for the chemical industry and also as a raw material for the industrial production of adipic acid and caprolactam, both of which are intermediates used in the production of nylon.

Ruvon International supplies high-purity (99.9%) Cyclohexane sourced from leading petrochemical complexes. Our material has extremely low benzene and sulphur content, making it ideal for sensitive catalytic processes.

The "Nylon Link"

Cyclohexane is the starting point for the polyamide industry. Approximately 90% of global cyclohexane production is consumed in the manufacture of Nylon 6 and Nylon 6,6. It undergoes oxidation to produce Cyclohexanone and Cyclohexanol (KA Oil), which are then further processed into Caprolactam (for Nylon 6) and Adipic Acid (for Nylon 6,6). Ruvon's high-purity grade ensures maximum yield in these catalytic oxidation processes.

Safety & Handling Protocols

Highly Flammable & Irritant

Cyclohexane is highly flammable and vapors may form explosive mixtures with air.

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location, away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Ground containers to prevent static.
  • PPE: Wear chemical resistant gloves (Nitrile), safety goggles, and protective clothing.
  • Health: Inhalation can cause dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Aspiration hazard if swallowed.
