| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Aromatic petroleum naphthas (APN), coal tar, or pyrolysis
naphthas are manufactured in three boiling ranges.
Aromatic petroleum naphthas are processed from high-boiling
distillate fractions that contain mainly alkylbenzenes,
cumene, toluene, and xylene. These materials are used
as chemical rawmaterials, as degreasing agents, in varnishes,
lacquers, synthetic enamels, and lithography inks, and in
textile printing. Aromatic petroleum naphthas are also
used as solvents for herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides. | [Definition]
Naphtha (petroleum), light steam-cracked arom. is a complex combination of hydrocarbons produced by distillation of products from a steam-cracking process. It consists predominantly of aromatic hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C7 through C9 and boiling in the range of approximately 110.degree.C to 165.degree.C (230.degree.F to 329.degree.F). |
