n-Hexane 99% for HPLC is a solvent primarily used in analytical chromatography, particularly high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), to separate and analyze compounds with high precision. More broadly, hexane serves as a solvent for extracting vegetable oils from oilseeds, a reaction medium for olefin polymerization and pharmaceutical manufacture, and a component of adhesives and paint diluents. It is also employed in laboratory settings for extraction and as a reference standard. This product has a CAS number of 110-54-3, with the molecular formula C6H14 and a molecular weight of 86.18. It is stored at ambient conditions and carries a signal word of "Danger" due to its flammable and hazardous nature.
