D140

D140 refers to a specific blend of aliphatic and cyclic hydrocarbons, typically consisting of C14-C18 paraffins and naphthenes. Here's a detailed explanation:

What is D140?

• D140: A chemical blend containing saturated hydrocarbons (alkanes), branched hydrocarbons (isoalkanes), and cyclic compounds, with carbon chains ranging from C14 to C18.

Main Components:

1. Alkanes:

• Definition: Saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula CₙH₂ₙ₊₂.

• Properties: Alkanes are stable and non-reactive under normal conditions, making them ideal for use in fuels, solvents, and industrial applications.

2. Isoalkanes:

• Definition: Branched, saturated hydrocarbons, offering different properties than straight-chain alkanes.

• Properties: Isoalkanes typically have better characteristics for fuels and lubricants, including higher octane ratings and improved fluidity.

3. Cyclic Compounds:

• Definition: Saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbons forming ring structures (naphthenes).

• Properties: These compounds contribute unique solvent and reactivity properties, improving the overall performance of the D140 mixture in various industrial processes.

Properties:

• Physical State: D140 is typically a colorless or light yellow liquid with a mild odor.

• Boiling Point: It has a moderate boiling point, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Applications:

• Solvents: D140 is commonly used in paints, coatings, and cleaning agents due to its excellent solvent properties.

• Lubricants: It is a common component in grease and industrial lubricants, enhancing performance.

• Chemical Industry: D140 is utilized as a raw material in the synthesis of various chemicals.

Health and Safety:

• Like many chemical compounds, it's important to follow safety precautions when handling D140, as it can be irritating to the skin and respiratory system. Use of appropriate protective equipment is recommended.

 

D140 can be supplied in Bulk, IBC, Drums.
