Product Description

o-Xylene (ortho-xylene, C₆H₄(CH₃)₂) is an aromatic hydrocarbon commonly used as a solvent in various industrial, chemical, and laboratory applications. It is one of the three isomers of xylene (along with m-xylene and p-xylene) and is characterized by two methyl groups attached to adjacent positions on the benzene ring. O-Xylene is a colorless, flammable liquid with a sweet odor, and it is highly effective as a solvent for oils, resins, and various organic compounds. It is commonly used in the production of chemicals, coatings, adhesives, and as a solvent in analytical and laboratory settings. Available in high-purity forms, O-Xylene ensures reliable and consistent performance in a wide range of applications.
