Trimethylcyclohexanone CAS 873-94-9
Product introduction
High-purity Trimethylcyclohexanone (CAS 873-94-9), a premium high solvency solvent and fine chemical intermediate, delivers stable performance for industrial synthesis, coatings, and fragrance manufacturing.
Product overview
Trimethylcyclohexanone (CAS 873-94-9, molecular formula C₉H₁₆O) is a colorless to pale yellow high solvency solvent, categorized as a high-performance organic chemical and ketone product. Renowned for its high solvency, low volatility, and chemical inertness, it serves as a critical industrial solvent and fine chemical intermediate across coatings, fragrances, pharmaceutical synthesis, and polymer additive industries.
Features: Trusted Across Diverse Industries
Trimethylcyclohexanone stands out for its high purity (≥99%) and strict impurity control, achieved through advanced vacuum distillation and rectification processes. This exceptional purity eliminates reactive contaminants, ensuring consistent chemical behavior even under elevated temperatures (up to 150°C) and prolonged storage. The high solvency solvent molecular structure-with three methyl groups attached to a cyclohexanone ring-confers balanced polarity and non-polarity, enabling it to dissolve both polar resins and non-polar polymers effectively, this is a high-quality organic intermediate.
Advantages: Trusted Across Diverse Industries
This balanced solvency is a key advantage over conventional solvents. Unlike low-boiling solvents that evaporate rapidly or toxic solvents with harsh reactivity, Trimethylcyclohexanone offers a moderate boiling point (175–180°C) and low vapor pressure. It resists degradation during high-temperature processing, reducing solvent loss and minimizing harmful emissions. Its non-corrosive nature also protects production equipment, extending machinery lifespan and lowering maintenance costs.
Evidence: Proven Value in Modern Chemical Manufacturing
Authoritative third-party testing confirms Trimethylcyclohexanone's consistent quality: purity levels remain above 99%, moisture content below 0.1%, and residual impurities under 0.05%. this is a high-quality, high solvency solvent. Long-term supply records from Shandong Xima Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. verify its reliability-bulk shipments to Asia, Europe, and the Middle East have maintained zero quality complaints over three years. Major fragrance and pharmaceutical manufacturers regularly specify Trimethylcyclohexanone in their production processes, citing its stable performance and consistent batch-to-batch uniformity as key reasons for adoption.
