Hydrotreated kerosene

Hydrotreated kerosene (CAS 64742-47-8) is a refined petroleum fraction produced by catalytic hydrotreatment to remove sulfur, nitrogen, and aromatic compounds.

Where is Hydrotreated kerosene used?

• Industrial solvent, cleaning and carrier applications: cleaner, low-odor hydrocarbon stream
• Metalworking and industrial maintenance: degreasing solvent and parts-cleaning fluid that removes oils, greases and machining residues
• Household and industrial cleaning: hydrocarbon carrier in spray degreasers and hard-surface cleaners
• Aerosol formulations: low aromatic content
• Oil and gas: diluent and process solvent in drilling and production operations
• Specialty lubricant blending: reduced sulfur content makes it a base fluid where contamination thresholds are tightly controlled

Good to know: Offers tighter compositional control than standard kerosene grades and lacks the aggressive odor profile of untreated distillates. Dearomatized and low-sulfur variants meet specific formulation or regulatory requirements.
