Cyclohexanone

Cyclohexanone is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H10O. It is a colorless transparent liquid. The impurities are light yellow. As the storage time increases, impurities are generated and the color changes. It is water white to grayish yellow and has a strong pungent odor.

Cyclohexanone is an important chemical raw material and a major intermediate for the manufacture of nylon, caprolactam and adipic acid. It is also an important industrial solvent, such as paints, especially those containing nitrocellulose, vinyl chloride polymers and their copolymers or methacrylate polymers. It is an excellent solvent for pesticides such as organophosphorus insecticides and many similar pesticides, used as a solvent for dyes, as a viscous solvent for piston-type aviation lubricants, and a solvent for fats, waxes and rubbers. It is also used as a leveling agent for dyeing and matte silk, a degreasing agent for polishing metals, and a wood coloring paint. It is used as a high-boiling point solvent for cosmetics such as nail polish. It is usually formulated into a mixed solvent with low-boiling point solvents and medium-boiling point solvents to obtain a suitable evaporation rate and viscosity.
