Naphtha (petroleum), heavy alkylate

Naphtha (petroleum), heavy alkylate (CAS 64741-65-7) is a high-boiling petroleum-derived hydrocarbon fraction produced through the alkylation of refinery streams.

Where is Naphtha (petroleum), heavy alkylate used?

• Industrial cleaning: non-polar solvent and degreasing carrier for heavy oils, greases and hydrocarbon residues on metal surfaces and equipment
• Lubricant formulation: diluent or process solvent in blending operations requiring controlled evaporation and hydrocarbon compatibility
• Oil and gas: pipeline maintenance fluids and equipment cleaning where high-boiling aliphatic solvents outperform lighter fractions in residue removal
• Home care: heavy-duty degreasers and solvent-based cleaning concentrates targeting stubborn hydrocarbon soils

Good to know: Buyers should confirm distillation range and aromatic content specifications with suppliers, as these parameters vary by refinery source.

Commercial specifications

• Bulk tanker, IBC and drum formats
