Specialty solvents beyond traditional alcohols, ketones, and hydrocarbons serve critical roles in laboratory analysis, industrial processing, and specialized cleaning applications. This collection features petroleum-based solvents and other niche compounds that offer unique properties like specific boiling ranges, low residue characteristics, and compatibility with sensitive materials.

Common Applications

• Laboratory Extraction: Petroleum ether for lipid extraction, chromatography mobile phases, and sample preparation
• Electronics Manufacturing: Low-residue cleaning of circuit boards, sensors, and precision components
• Fuel Applications: Clean-burning kerosene for heating, lighting, and specialty equipment
• Industrial Degreasing: Removal of oils, waxes, and organic residues from metal parts
• Chemical Synthesis: Reaction media and purification processes in pharmaceutical and fine chemical production
• Analytical Testing: Sample preparation and analytical method development

Available Grades and Forms

We stock both Technical and ACS Reagent grades to meet industrial and analytical requirements. Our industrial solvents guide helps you select the right grade for your application. Petroleum ether is available with consistent boiling ranges (30-60°C, 40-60°C), while kerosene meets K1 specifications for clean-burning applications. All solvents undergo rigorous quality testing for purity and performance consistency.

Pack Sizes Available

Choose from quart bottles for laboratory use, gallon containers for regular operations, 5-gallon pails for moderate volume needs, or 55-gallon drums for industrial applications. Larger tote quantities available upon request.

Proper storage is essential for these solvents - our safety storage guide covers requirements for flammable materials.
