Cyclopentane (also called C pentane) is a highly flammable alicyclic hydrocarbon with chemical formula C5H10 and CAS number 287-92-3, consisting of a ring of five carbon atoms each bonded with two hydrogen atoms above and below the plane. It occurs as a colorless liquid with a petrol-like odor. Its melting point is −94 °C and its boiling point is 49 °C. Cyclopentane is in the class of cycloalkanes, being alkanes that have one or more rings of carbon atoms. It is formed by cracking cyclohexane in the presence of alumina at a high temperature and pressure.
Industrial usage
Cyclopentane is used in the manufacture of synthetic resins and rubber adhesives and also as a blowing agent in the manufacture of polyurethane insulating foam and is found in many domestic appliances such as refrigerators and freezers as a refrigerant, replacing alternatives such as CFC-11 and HCFC-141b.
Multiply alkylated cyclopentane (MAC) lubricants have low volatility and are used in some specialty applications.
Used as chromatographic analysis standard substance, solvent, motor fuel, azeotropic distillation agent.
Used as a solvent for solution polymerization such as polyisoprene rubber and a solvent for cellulose ether, replacing Freon as a foaming agent for refrigerators, freezers, and other rigid PU foams, and chromatographic analysis standard materials.
Cyclopentane Usage
(1) It can be used as a solvent for solution polymerization of polyisoprene rubber and cellulose ether. It can be used as a substitute for Freon as insulation materials in refrigerators and freezers as well as foaming agents for other hard PU foams, and chromatographic analysis standards.
(2) Used as a standard substance for chromatographic analysis, solvents, engine fuels, azeotropic distillation agents.
Cyclopentane Chemical Properties
colorless liquid with a petrol-like smell
Cyclopentane Uses
1. Cyclopentane is a petroleum product. It is formed from high-temperature catalytic cracking of cyclohexane or by reduction of cyclopentadiene. It occurs in petroleum ether fractions and in many commercial solvents. It is used as a solvent for paint, in the extraction of wax and fat, and in the shoe industry.
2. As a laboratory reagent; in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals; found in solvents and in petroleum ether; propellant pressurizing agent.
