VWR® Cyclohexanone (≥99.0%) is a high-purity analytical reagent supplied as a clear, colorless liquid with a faint odor reminiscent of acetone. Cyclohexanone is a cyclic ketone widely used as a solvent, intermediate, and reference material in chemical synthesis, polymer production, and analytical applications.
This reagent-grade product is ideal for laboratories requiring reliable purity, controlled specifications, and reproducibility. Its common uses include solvent applications in coatings, plastics, and resins, as well as a key intermediate in the synthesis of adipic acid and nylon-6 precursors.
Key Features
- High Purity: ≥99.0% assay (analytical grade).
- Low Impurities: Water ≤0.2%; cyclohexanol ≤0.5%.
- Defined Physical Properties: Narrow boiling range and refractive index.
- Versatile Solvent: Effective in polymer, resin, and coating systems.
- Intermediate Use: Precursor in adipic acid and caprolactam (nylon) synthesis.
- Convenient Packaging: Supplied in 1 L glass bottles.
Applications
- Analytical Chemistry: Reference solvent and calibration material.
- Industrial Chemistry: Intermediate for nylon-6 and adipic acid production.
- Coatings & Polymers: Solvent for resins, plastics, lacquers, and dyes.
- Organic Synthesis: Reagent and medium for cyclic ketone chemistry.
- Research & Development: General laboratory solvent and analytical reagent.
