Test Kit For Water-62
Nitrite Test Reagent TK - 5
Part No: RXSOL-62-5507-007
Hexane is a solvent widely used as an industrial cleaner and degreaser and is an ingredient in many consumer products.
Hexane is used to extract edible oils from seeds and vegetables, as a special-use solvent, and as a cleaning agent. Acute (short-term) inhalation exposure of humans to high levels of hexane causes mild central nervous system (CNS) effects, including dizziness, giddiness, slight nausea, and headache.
Application
Hexan most commonly used in labs, food processing (oil extraction), printing, and shoemaking etc
Dosage
N-hexane is a clear colorless liquids with a petroleum-like odor. Flash points -9 °F. Less dense than water and insoluble in water. Vapors heavier than air.
