Product Description:
Petroleum ether is widely used as a solvent in laboratories and industrial processes due to its ability to dissolve non-polar substances. It is commonly employed in the extraction of oils, fats, and waxes from natural sources, making it a key component in the preparation of essential oils and plant extracts. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is utilized for the purification and crystallization of drugs. Additionally, it serves as a cleaning agent for removing grease and residues from machinery and equipment. Its low boiling point makes it suitable for use in chromatography as a mobile phase for separating compounds. In the manufacturing of adhesives, paints, and coatings, petroleum ether acts as a thinning agent to achieve the desired consistency. However, its highly flammable nature requires careful handling and storage.
