    Cyclohexane CAS 110-82-7

    Cyclohexane is a saturated cyclic hydrocarbon used as a fundamental chemical raw material in industrial processing systems. Commonly referred to as hexahydrobenzene or cyclohexyl hydride, this compound is characterized by its non‑polar structure and chemical stability, making it suitable for use in extraction, reaction media, and controlled processing environments. Identified by CAS 110-82-7, it is typically applied as a chemical process solvent, where low reactivity and consistent physical properties are required for downstream chemical operations.
    For industrial supply, this product is available with competitive factory pricing, customized specifications, complete documentation including MSDS, TDS, COA, and supports bulk supply requirements.

    Application Areas

    Industrial raw materials: mainly used for the production of nylon precursors such as adipic acid and caprolactam.
    Solvent and extractant: used as solvents for rubber, coatings, and varnishes, and diluents for adhesives. Used for oil extraction, chromatographic analysis of standard substances, and organic synthesis.
    Other uses: Widely used in industrial coatings, adhesives, organic synthesis and other fields

    Storage conditions

    Environmental requirements: Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse, away from sources of fire and heat. The storage temperature should not exceed 30 ℃, and the container should be kept sealed.
    Isolation storage: Store separately from oxidants and prohibit mixing storage.
    Safety facilities: Explosion proof lighting and ventilation equipment are used. Equip with leak emergency response equipment and firefighting equipment.

    Safety precautions

    Fire and explosion risks: Avoid contact with fire sources and prevent static electricity accumulation during transportation.
    Health hazards: Long term exposure may cause damage to the central nervous system (headaches, dizziness, etc.) and skin and eye irritation. Wear protective equipment (such as gas masks and oil resistant gloves) during operation.
    Emergency measures: ventilation and emergency treatment shall be taken immediately in case of leakage, and foam and carbon dioxide fire extinguishers shall be used in case of fire. Empty containers may contain harmful substances that need to be properly disposed of

    FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

    • Q:

      Are cyclohexane and hexahydrobenzene the same chemical substance?

      A: Yes. Cyclohexane and hexahydrobenzene are alternative names for the same compound and correspond to a single CAS registry entry.
    • Q:

      Is cyclohexane intended for industrial solvent use rather than laboratory-only applications?

      A: Cyclohexane is commonly supplied for industrial processing, where it functions as a solvent or process medium rather than being limited to laboratory research use.
