What is PETROLEUM ETHER?
Definition
PETROLEUM ETHER is a complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained from the distillation of crude oil or natural gasoline. It consists predominantly of saturated hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C5 through C10 and boiling in the range of approximately 35.degree.C to 160.degree.C (95.degree.F to 320.degree.F).
Flammability and Explosibility
Extremely flammable
Agricultural Uses
Naphtha is used as a raw material for producing hydrogen required for the manufacture of nitrogen fertilizers. It is also one of the favored feedstocks for ammonia production. In addition to being a source of hydrogen, naphtha is a good solvent used for degreasing, extraction in plants, drycleaning, etc.
