N-pentane CAS 109-66-0
Sinochem is a major N-pentane supplier. Meanwhile, our firm staffs a group of experts devoted to your development of China N-pentane.
n-Pentane is an aliphatic hydrocarbon that is flammable and has a low flash point and autoignition temperature. It can burn in the air to produce carbon dioxide and water. Its structure is simple and n-pentane is reactive with most common organic compounds.
- Colorless liquid with a faint mint aroma.
- Soluble in a variety of organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, acetone, benzene and chloroform.
- Highly flammable, its vapor can form an explosive mixture with air.
- It is very easy to burn and explode when exposed to open flames and high heat.
- It can react violently with oxidants and even cause combustion

Package: 125KGS/drum or 625kgs/drum or bulk product in ISO TANK
Storage: Store in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep it away from fire and heat sources, and make sure the temperature stays below 29℃. Always keep the container sealed. Don’t store it with oxidizers, and avoid mixing them. Use explosion-proof lights and make sure there’s good ventilation. Avoid using tools or equipment that could create sparks. Finally, make sure the storage area has emergency spill kits and proper containment materials.
Safety Protection: Workers should take good protection. High concentrations can cause mild irritation of the eyes and respiratory mucosa and anesthesia, or even loss of consciousness. In case of fire, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, and sand can be used to extinguish the fire. Water is ineffective. In addition, the working environment should have good ventilation conditions.
