1-Hexene
Chemical Formula: C6H12
CAS No. 592-41-6
Is an organic compound and an alpha olefin. It is widely used as a Comonomer in production of Polyethylene (HDPE & LLDPE).
1-Hexene is considered dangerous because in liquid and vapor form it is highly flammable and may be fatal if swallowed and enters airways.
Isododecan
Chemical Name: 2,2,4,6,6-Pentamethylheptane
CAS No. 31807-55-3
Isododecane is an ultra-pure, highly branched alkane, which is used extensively in radical catalysed polymerization reactions. It is the solvent / dispersant of choice for Europe’s major producers of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) in both autoclave and tubular processes.
Isododecane is used both as a carrier for peroxide catalysts, and a catalyst injection dispersant in the polymerization reaction itself. High activity peroxide catalysts used in the production of PVC and in cross-linked unsaturated polyester are also frequently dissolved in Isododecane. Isododecane is also a common ingredient found in many different types of beauty products. This colorless liquid is often added to cosmetics and other personal care products to keep them soft and to help them glide easily on the skin.
