Product Description:Petroleum Ether 40-60°C
Petroleum Ether 40–60 °C is a high-purity, low-boiling hydrocarbon solvent widely used in organic chemistry, analytical laboratories, and industrial processes. It is a colorless, highly volatile liquid consisting mainly of aliphatic hydrocarbons. With a boiling range between 40–60 °C, this fraction of petroleum ether is ideal for applications that require efficient dissolution, extraction, or purification under mild conditions. Its low polarity and fast evaporation rate make it a preferred solvent in chemical synthesis, sample preparation, chromatography, and industrial cleaning.
