Xylene refers to a group of three isomeric aromatic hydrocarbon compounds: ortho-xylene, meta-xylene, and para-xylene. It is a colorless, flammable liquid with a sweet odor. Xylene is primarily used as a solvent in various industrial processes, including the production of paints, coatings, adhesives, and rubber. It can also be found in small amounts in gasoline and other petroleum products.

Butanol 99.4%
Butanol, also known as butyl alcohol, is a type of alcohol with four carbon atoms in its molecular structure. There are four isomeric forms of butanol, which differ based on the location of the hydroxyl (-OH) group on the carbon chain. These isomers are:
- n-Butanol (1-butanol): The "n" stands for "normal," indicating that the carbon chain is linear. It is often used as a solvent and in the production of plastics, coatings, and pharmaceuticals.
- Isobutanol (2-methyl-1-propanol): This isomer has a branched structure, with a methyl group (-CH3) attached to the second carbon atom. Isobutanol has applications as a solvent, in the production of various chemicals, and as a fuel additive.
- Sec-butanol (2-butanol): It has a branched structure, with the hydroxyl group attached to the second carbon atom. It's used as a solvent and in the manufacture of perfumes and pharmaceuticals.
- Tert-butanol (2-methyl-2-propanol): This isomer is highly branched, with the hydroxyl group attached to a carbon atom that is itself attached to three other carbon atoms. Tert-butanol is used primarily as a solvent and as a chemical intermediate.
Dichloromethane 270kg
Dichloromethane, also known as methylene chloride, is a volatile organic compound and a colorless, sweet-smelling chemical compound with the chemical formula CH2Cl2. It is a widely used solvent in various industrial applications and laboratory processes. Dichloromethane is characterized by its ability to dissolve a wide range of organic and inorganic substances, making it valuable in tasks such as paint stripping, degreasing, and as a solvent in chemical reactions.
