Product Properties
Cyclohexanone is a colorless, clear liquid with soil smell; its impure product appears as light yellow color. It is miscible with several other solvents. easily soluble in ethanol and ether. The lower exposure limit is 1.1% and the upper exposure limit is 9.4%.
Cyclohexanone is a water-white to slightly yellow liquid with a peppermint-like or acetone-like odor. The Odor Threshold is 0.12 0.24 ppm in air.
Cyclohexanone is clear, colorless to pale yellow, oily liquid with a peppermint-like odor. Experimentally determined detection and recognition odor threshold concentrations were identical: 480 μg/m3 (120 ppmv) (Hellman and Small, 1974).
Cyclohexanone is an important building block for the synthesis of a variety of organic compounds. Majority of the cyclohexanone synthesized is utilized as an intermediate in the synthesis of nylon.
Used as a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) solvent, cyclohexanone caused contact dermatitis in a woman manufacturing PVC fluidotherapy bags. Cyclohexanone probably does not cross react with cyclohexanone resin. A cyclohexanone-derived resin used in paints and varnishes caused contact dermatitis in painters.
Application
Cyclohexanone is mostly captively consumed, either isolated or as a mixture, in the production of nylon intermediates (adipic acid and Caprolactam). Around 4% is consumed in markets other than nylon, such as solvents for paints, dyes and pesticides. Cyclohexanone is also used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, films, soaps and coatings.
Cyclohexanone is an important chemical raw material, being the major intermediates of making nylon, caprolactam and adipic acid. It is also an important industrial solvent, for example, for paints, especially for those containing nitrocellulose, vinyl chloride polymers and their copolymers or methacrylate polymer paints. Used as an excellent solvent for pesticides such as organophosphate insecticide. It is used as a solvent for dyes, viscous solvents for piston aviation lubricants, solvents for greases, waxes and rubbers. Also used as leveling agent for dyeing and fading silk; degreasing agents for polishing metal; wood coloring paint; also used for cyclohexanone stripping, decontamination and spot removal.
