What is the identity and CAS of Cyclohexanone?

Cyclohexanone, also called Cyclohexyl ketone or Anone, is identified by CAS 108-94-1 and molecular formula C6H10O. The CAS number alone does not define assay, water, acidity, distillation range, color or purity.

What is Cyclohexanone used for?

Cyclohexanone is a cyclic ketone used as an industrial solvent and as a chemical intermediate for nylon precursors, caprolactam, adipic acid, coatings and fine-chemical synthesis. Solvent and intermediate grades are not automatically equivalent.

Which test values should be compared for Cyclohexanone?

Compare GC assay, water, acidity, color, density, refractive index and distillation range. For intermediate use, also review limits for cyclohexanol, cyclohexene or other process-related impurities by the agreed analytical methods.

How should Cyclohexanone be stored and transported?

Cyclohexanone is a flammable liquid, commonly transported as UN 1915, Hazard Class 3, Packing Group III. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, open flames, strong oxidizers and incompatible materials.

What are typical physical properties of Cyclohexanone?

Cyclohexanone is normally a colorless to slightly yellow liquid with a characteristic ketone odor. Reported values include a melting point around -47 degrees Celsius, boiling point around 155 degrees Celsius, density near 0.947 g/mL and a closed-cup flash point near 43-44 degrees Celsius.

Cyclohexanone CAS 108-94-1

Cyclohexanone, CAS 108-94-1, is also known as cyclohexyl ketone or anone. It is a cyclic ketone used as an industrial solvent and chemical-synthesis intermediate, including caprolactam and nylon production. Confirm whether solvent or intermediate use drives the required specification, then state quantity, packaging, destination and document needs in the RFQ.
