BPCL

SBP Solvent consists of volatile fraction derived from petroleum and is composed essentially of paraffinic, naphthenic and aromatic hydrocarbons in varying proportions. It falls under Class A category of petroleum products.

Application

• Tyre Industry in temporary binding of layers of rubber/rubberized fabrics. The application of SBP, between each layer, results in thickening of the surfaces and satisfactory adhesion until the layers are eventually welded together by vulcanization
• As thinner for varnish, paint and printing ink formulations when quick drying is required
• As diluents for lacquers, enamels, high-grade leather dopes and as a solvent for processing polishes, cleaning and water proofing compounds
• This product is available from BPCL Refineries and other storage depots.

USPs: as per latest specifications

PESO class: A - class

M/s Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited are pioneers in manufacturing and marketing of Hexane for edible and essential oil extraction units all over the country. With the commissioning of the state of the art Isomerization unit at Mumbai Refinery, BPCL is proud to showcase a “World Class Product” - Hexane, which far exceeds the requirements of Food Grade Hexane. The NHT / ISOM unit at Mumbai Refinery is licensed from M/s GTC Technology, USA.

Application

Hexane is used as a Solvent in the extraction of Edible /vegetable oils such as Cottonseed, Groundnut, Mustard, Rapeseed, Sesame, Linseed, Rice Bran, Soybean, Sunflower etc. BPCL’s Food Grade Hexane is also used for manufacture of most delicate perfumes and solvent based adhesives, sealing etc.

USPs:

• Virtual absence of aromatics, with Benzene content typically < 3 ppm, makes it an ideal carrier / solvent without carcinogenic impurities.
• Higher n-Hexane content enables quick settling of Batch, enhances the reaction and prevents unreacted metal getting carried away as wastage.
• Very narrow boiling range facilitates virtually complete recovery of solvent.

• Virtual absence of aromatics, with Benzene content typically < 3 ppm, makes it an ideal carrier / solvent without carcinogenic impurities.
• Higher n-Hexane content enables quick settling of Batch, enhances the reaction and prevents unreacted metal getting carried away as wastage.
• Very narrow boiling range facilitates virtually complete recovery of solvent.
• Higher n-Hexane & negligible Sulphur content typically <2 ppm.
