Kenya Chemical is one of the leading Heptane Exporters, Manufacturers, Suppliers, and Producers in Nairobi, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi, Congo, South Africa, South Sudan, Zambia, Nigeria, Namibia, Ghana, Malawi Nairobi Kenya.
Heptane or n-heptane is the straight-chain alkane with the chemical formula H3C(CH2)5CH3 or C7H16 and is one of the main components of gasoline (petrol). When used as a test fuel component in anti-knock test engines, a 100% heptane fuel is the zero point of the octane rating scale (the 100 point is 100% iso-octane). Octane number equates to the anti-knock qualities of a comparison mixture of heptane and isooctane which is expressed as the percentage of isooctane in heptane and is listed on pumps for gasoline (petrol) dispensed globally.
Product Name: Heptane
CAS No: 142/82/5
Molecular Formular: C7H16
Molecular Weight: 100.2
Heptane (and its many isomers) is widely used in laboratories as a non-polar solvent. As a liquid, it is ideal for transport and storage. In the grease spot test, heptane is used to dissolve an oil spot to show the previous presence of organic compounds on a stained paper. This is done by shaking the stained paper in a heptane solution for about half a minute.
Aqueous bromine may be distinguished from aqueous iodine by its appearance after extraction into heptane. In water, both bromine and iodine appear brown. However, iodine turns purple when dissolved in heptane, whereas the bromine solution remains brown.
Heptane is commercially available as mixed isomers for use in paints and coatings, as the rubber cement solvent "Bestine", the outdoor stove fuel "Powerful" by Primus, as pure n-heptane for research and development and pharmaceutical manufacturing and as a minor component of gasoline.
1. Mainly used as a standard for determining octane number, and also as an anesthetic, solvent, and raw material for organic synthesis
2. Used as analytical reagent and solvent
3. Extraction solvent.
4. Used as analytical reagent, gasoline engine knock test standard, chromatographic analysis reference substance, solvent. This product can stimulate the respiratory tract and has an anesthetic effect at high concentrations. It is flammable, and the limit concentration of the explosive mixture in the air is 1.0-6.0% (volume).
5. Biochemical research, protein sequence analysis. Determination of ozone and triglycerides. Analysis of pesticide residues. Spectral and fluorescence analysis. Standard fuel for testing the anti-knock performance of gasoline.
Application Chemical raw materials; Aliphatic hydrocarbons
Usage
N-heptane is a typical non-polar solvent. It is often used as a standard for determining octane number, anesthetics, organic synthesis raw materials, etc. It is also widely used in medicine, pesticides, rubber synthesis, chemical fiber synthesis, reagents, electronic cleaning, and other industries. N-octane is used as a solvent and chromatographic analysis standard substance, also used in organic synthesis.
