Hexane is an organic chemical material that is applied in the variety of industries. Hexane isomers that include hexane, 2-methylpentene, 3- methylpentene, 2,3, dimethylbutane, 2,2-methylbutane are largely unreactive, and are frequently used as an inert solvent in organic reactions because they are very non-polar. They are also common constituents of gasoline. The acute toxicity of hexane is relatively low, although it is a mild anesthetic. This hexane msds is stable, incompatible with oxidizing agents that include chlorine, florine, msgnesium sulphate, which readily forms explosives with air. Pure n-hexane is used in laboratories. Most of the n-hexane used in industry is mixed with similar chemicals called solvents. The major use for solvents containing n-hexane is to extract vegetable oils from crops such as soybeans. These solvents are also used as cleaning agents in the printing, textile, furniture, and shoemaking industries. Certain kinds of special glues used in the roofing and shoe and leather industries also contain n-hexane. Several consumer products contain n-hexane, such as gasoline, quick-drying glues used in various hobbies, and rubber cement.
