Pentanes are some of the primary blowing agents used in the production of polystyrene foam and other foams. Usually, a mixture of n-, i-, and increasingly cyclopentane is used for this purpose. Acid-catalyzed isomerization gives isopentane, which is used in producing high-octane fuels.

The possibility of phthalic anhydride production by n-pentane partial oxidation is of interest. n-Pentane as a raw material costs less than o-xylene which is the raw material commercially used today to produce phthalic anhydride.
