99% Pure Cyclohexanone Solvent is available for immediate supply with a verified purity of 99% and is suitable for both industrial and pharmaceutical applications. This high-purity product (CAS 108-94-1) is widely recognized for its role as an advanced solvent in specialty adhesive and sealant formulation processes. Its well-defined physicochemical properties make it particularly valuable for environments requiring precise consistency and reliable performance in chemical synthesis and manufacturing. For bulk pricing or supply inquiries, professional buyers can reference this specific application.
Cyclohexanone is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H10O and a molecular weight of 98.15 g/mol. Structurally, it is a saturated cyclic ketone featuring a six-membered ring and a singular carbonyl functional group, which imparts significant utility in nucleophilic addition reactions or as an intermediate in condensation processes. Due to its moderate polarity and solubility profile, cyclohexanone is favored as a solvent in the formulation of adhesives and sealants, enabling consistent dispersion of resin components and controlled evaporation rates. In continuous manufacturing or flow chemistry settings, its predictable reactivity and narrow boiling range (154–156°C) allow for scalable, reproducible processes, making it a cornerstone material in specialty chemical production workflows.
The physical and technical specifications of 99% Pure Cyclohexanone include a density of 0.9478 g/cm³ at 20°C, a boiling point of 154 to 156°C, and a melting point registered at –47°C. The product’s high assay purity (99% minimum) ensures minimal interference from by-products, while the residual water content is strictly controlled beneath 0.1%, optimizing integration into moisture-sensitive formulations. The flash point sits at 44°C, which supports safe handling protocols, and the partition coefficient (logP) of 0.81 is indicative of moderate hydrophobicity, balancing solubility requirements for diverse formulation matrices.
The primary use for this grade of cyclohexanone is as a process solvent in specialty adhesive and sealant production. Owing to its excellent miscibility with resins, polymers, and plasticizers, it is particularly advantageous for the formulation of polyurethane and acrylic systems where rheology and set time must be carefully managed. Beyond its core application, cyclohexanone serves as an effective solvent in the production of high-performance coatings, faciliates extraction procedures in fine chemical synthesis, acts as an intermediate in the manufacture of nylon-6 and nylon-66 precursors, and finds use in select pharmaceutical synthesis steps where controlled ketone reactivity is required. These supplementary uses are especially relevant for operations leveraging continuous manufacturing, where consistent solvent performance is critical to product quality and throughput.
For supply chain and quality assurance, 99% Pure Cyclohexanone is shipped in 25-kilogram high-density polyethylene drums, with each container nitrogen-purged to maintain product integrity during storage and transport. Optimal storage conditions require a cool, well-ventilated warehouse, with recommended temperatures maintained below 30°C to ensure the solvent’s chemical stability. Under these specifications, the product exhibits a shelf life exceeding 24 months from manufacture, with complete Certificate of Analysis (COA) documentation provided for every batch, supporting compliance and traceability for regulated and high-value manufacturing processes.
