Pure benzene

Pure benzene is the simplest aromatic hydrocarbon (C₆H₆) with a hexagonal ring containing three double bonds. Industrial grade (≥99.9%) features high volatility, strong solvency, and high reactivity. It is a fundamental feedstock in petrochemicals, but its use is strictly regulated due to carcinogenicity.

Product Parameters


Product Name (English)Pure benzene
CAS No.71-43-2
DescriptionA colorless, highly flammable, and volatile liquid with a sweet odor. Benzene is one of the most fundamental petrochemicals. It is used as a precursor for the synthesis of a wide range of chemicals, including styrene, cumene, cyclohexane, and others, which are used to produce plastics, resins, and synthetic fibers.
SpecificationsPurity > 99.9%.
Packaging180 KG/drum.

Basic Properties

  • Molecular Formula: C₆H₆

  • Appearance: Colorless liquid, sweet odor

  • Density (20°C): 0.878 g/cm³

  • Boiling Point :80.1°C

  • Melting Point: 5.5°C

  • Flash Point: -11°C (Extremely flammable)

  • Explosive Limits: 1.2–8.0% vol (in air)

  • Solubility: Slight in water; miscible with organics

  • Carcinogenicity: IARC Group 1 (Confirmed human carcinogen)

Main Applications


  1. Chemical Feedstock:

    • Ethylbenzene → Styrene (Polystyrene/ABS plastics)

    • Cyclohexane → Nylon 6/66

    • Cumene → Phenol/Acetone (Bisphenol A precursor)

  2. Solvent:

    • Selective reaction solvent (being replaced by toluene)

    • HPLC/GC analytical reagent

  3. Fuel Additive:

    • Octane booster in gasoline (phased out due to toxicity)

Safety Precautions


  • Health Hazards:

    • Acute: Dizziness, coma (narcotic effect)

    • Chronic:
      → Leukemia (especially AML)
      → Aplastic anemia (bone marrow failure)

    • Skin contact: Rapid penetration → dermatitis/burns

  • Physical Hazards:

    • Vapor density > air (spreads along ground)

    • Extreme static ignition risk (min. ignition energy 0.2 mJ)

  • Protection:

    • Engineering Controls:
      → Closed negative-pressure system + explosion-proof ventilation (<0.5 ppm)
      → Continuous benzene vapor monitors (alarm at 1 ppm)

    • PPE:
      → Supplied-air respirator (Level A) (mandatory for all operations)
      → Viton gloves + Type 1 certified suits

    • Restrictions: Pregnant/hematologic disease workers prohibited

  • Emergency:

    • Spill: Absorb with activated carbon, suppress vapor with foam

    • Inhalation: Immediate CPR + IV antidotes (NO epinephrine!)
