Xylene

Xylene (C₈H₁₀) refers to a group of aromatic hydrocarbons—primarily ortho‑, meta‑, and para‑xylene—used extensively as solvents and chemical intermediates. It is a clear, sweet‑smelling liquid derived from petroleum refining and coal carbonisation, and is a key component in paints, adhesives, and petrochemical synthesis.

Xylene is available in mixed isomer blends or high‑purity single isomers, depending on application. Mixed xylenes are ideal for general solvent use, while purified isomers are essential for polymer production, pharmaceutical synthesis, and spectroscopic analysis. Purity levels typically range from technical grade (≥95%) to reagent grade (≥99.5%), ensuring compatibility with both industrial and analytical workflows.
