Xylene – High Purity Solvent Xylene is a powerful aromatic solvent widely used across manufacturing, coatings, adhesives, printing, automotive, and laboratory applications. Our high‑purity Xylene provides strong solvency power, controlled evaporation, and reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. Xylene (a mixture of ortho‑, meta‑, and para‑isomers) is a clear, highly volatile aromatic hydrocarbon with excellent solvency for resins, polymers, oils, and hydrophobic materials. It is commonly used in coatings formulation, adhesive production, degreasing, and precision cleaning processes. Versatile Applications: Suitable for dissolving resins, thinning coatings, cleaning equipment, and supporting a wide range of industrial and laboratory processes. Key Features High Purity Grade – Suitable for professional and commercial use Strong Solvency Power – Dissolves oils, greases, resins, rubber, adhesives, and inks Moderate Evaporation Rate – Ideal for coatings, printing, and controlled drying applications Low Residue – Leaves surfaces clean and ready for finishing or bonding Low Odour – Lower odour Versatile Compatibility – Suitable for metals, glass, ceramics, and many industrial plastics Common Uses Thinning and dissolving paints, coatings, and varnishes Specimin processing Adhesive and resin formulation Rubber and polymer processing Cleaning and degreasing tools and industrial equipment Printing ink manufacturing Chemical synthesis and extraction Automotive and industrial maintenance Product Specifications Chemical Name: Xylene (Dimethylbenzene) Formula: C₈H₁₀ Appearance: Clear, colourless liquid Odour: Sweet, aromatic hydrocarbon odour Boiling Point: ~137–144°C (depending on isomer mix) Flash Point: ~25–30°C (Flammable) Safety & Handling Xylene is a flammable liquid and vapour . Use only in well‑ventilated areas away from ignition sources. Avoid breathing vapours and minimise skin contact. Wear appropriate PPE including gloves, eye protection, and re…
