What Is The Difference between N-Pentane and ISO-Pentane? n-Pentane and isopentane are two different structural isomers of pentane, each with distinct molecular arrangements. Here are the key differences between n-pentane and isopentane: Structural Arrangement: n-Pentane (Normal Pentane): n-Pentane has a linear, straight-chain structure with five carbon atoms connected in a continuous, unbranched chain. It is sometimes referred to as "normal" pentane due to its unbranched structure. Isopentane (2-Methylbutane): Isopentane has a branched-chain structure with one methyl (CH3) group branching off from the second carbon atom (C2) of the main carbon chain. This branching gives it its common name, "isopentane." Physical Properties: n-Pentane: n-Pentane is a clear, colorless liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. It has a higher boiling point than isopentane and is less volatile. Isopentane: Isopentane is also a clear, colorless liquid at room temperature, but it has a lower boiling point compared to n-pentane. It is more volatile and evaporates more easily. Boiling Points: n-Pentane: The boiling point of n-pentane is approximately 36.1 degrees Celsius (97 degrees Fahrenheit). Isopentane: The boiling point of isopentane is lower, at approximately -11.7 degrees Celsius (11 degrees Fahrenheit). This lower boiling point makes it more suitable for certain applications. Applications: n-Pentane: n-Pentane is used as a laboratory solvent, in the formulation of industrial solvents, and as a component in gasoline and other fuels. Its relatively higher boiling point makes it less volatile and suitable for some applications where slow evaporation is desired.

Store Properly: Store hexane containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Keep containers tightly sealed when not in use. Use Minimal Amounts: Use the smallest amount of hexane necessary to complete your task. Minimizing the quantity of hexane used reduces potential exposure. Emergency Equipment: Have access to emergency equipment, such as eye wash stations and safety showers, in case of accidental exposure. Know the location of fire extinguishers and fire alarm systems. Training: Ensure that personnel working with hexane are trained in its safe handling, storage, and disposal. Training should cover hazard recognition, first aid procedures, and emergency response protocols. Spill Response: In case of a hexane spill, follow your organization's spill response procedures. This may include containing the spill, using absorbent materials to soak up the liquid, and disposing of contaminated materials properly. Dispose of Hexane Waste Properly: Dispose of hexane waste in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Hexane waste should be collected and disposed of as hazardous waste. Regular Maintenance: Inspect equipment and storage containers regularly to ensure they are in good condition and free from leaks or damage. Medical Monitoring: If workers are regularly exposed to hexane, consider implementing a medical monitoring program to track their health and detect early signs of exposure-related issues. It's essential to familiarize yourself with the specific safety guidelines and procedures established by your organization or regulatory authorities when working with hexane, as they may vary depending on the application and concentration of hexane being used. Always prioritize safety and take appropriate precautions to protect yourself and others from potential hazards associated with hexane.

37 Degree MJIC Union
BVV™ 37° MJIC Union BVV™ brand stainless steel parts are made with precision 304 Grade Stainless Steel and are clean and free from burrs or debris. These fittings are 37° JIC threads and will create a seal by compressing the flared end against an opposite female/male flared connection. JIC connections do not require thread sealant because they seal off the flared surface of the fitting JIC Fittings are also not the same size as NPT fittings but do have the same size nomenclature. When connecting JIC fittings to one another it is recommended by BVV™ to use 2 wrenches - 1 to tighten the fitting and 1 to hold back against the force applied to create resistance and ensure a better seal. A MJIC Union allows the user to connect multiple JIC hoses together to their system and use it as a splitter or any other type of extractor accessory with Female JIC ends. This MJIC Union also allows the user to attach different sized Female JIC connectors together.

BVV™ Filtration Media CRC Starter Bundle
BVV™ Filtration Media CRC Starter Bundle This is the BVV recommended starter bundle for anyone venturing in to closed loop Color Remediation and desiring to make a clear and cleaner end product. This bundle works well with any of our Inline CRC hardware kits. (Seen here: ICRC300) BVV recommends a Pressure Flow through this bundle @ 30PSI. What's Included in the Bundle? BVV™ Silica Gel 60A - BVV™ Chromatographic Silica Gel is as premium as it gets. We recommend this for our Top layer of the CRC to grab fats, waxes and color bodies. It wont take the place of full dewaxing but it does a darn good job on its own. We recommend 30-50g of Silica per lb. biomass as the top layer of your filtration stack depending on the age of your material and the diameter of your filtration column. Pure-Flo® B80 Natural Bentonite for Bleaching - Pure-Flo® B80 will remove chlorophyll, color bodies, fats, waxes. Its natural neutral pH will help retain terpene flavonoids and clarify and remove dark colors from your oils. B80 is the most commonly used CRC media in extraction. We recommend you use 100g of bentonite Clay per lb. biomass above a layer of Activated Alumina. BVV™ Activated Alumina - BVV™ Activated Alumina is granular media excellent for grabbing water and waxes. We recommend Activated Alumina as the bottom layer of your filtration stack to absorb moisture at 30-50g per lb. biomass depending on the diameter of your filtration column.

We only recommend and warranty GlassVac® chambers for resin infusion and wood stabilization.The lid may be cleaned with any solvent or cleaning agent. See FAQ at the top for product safety warnings. Pump Warranty Information: Customers using solvents such as stabilization resins (MinWax™, Gator Venom™ etc.), alcohol and other polar solvents must use the vacuum pumps in conjunction with a cold trap for evacuations in excess of 5 minutes. (Exludes Cactus Juice™) If the consumer is using the pump for prolonged periods of time exceeding 5 minutes we require that a cold trap is used or the pump warranty is void. These stabilization resins have the ability to break down the internal components of the pump that are plastic resulting in a seized motor voiding all warranties. When evacuation exceeds 5 minutes these solvents begin to vaporize and then re-condense in the vacuum pump reservoir. Once enough solvent re-condenses in the pump displacing the oil the plastic internal components may begin to warp, melt or seize. The use of a cold trap will condense the vapors prior to making their way to the vacuum pump preventing pump damage due to excessive use. Furthermore, Minwax Wood Hardener™ is not to be used with any vacuum pumps, EVER. (A seized motor will result within the first use.) To prevent these issues from happening to your process, change the Oil after each vacuum pump use, Even if the use time is only 5min.

We only recommend and warranty GlassVac® chambers for resin infusion and wood stabilization.The lid may be cleaned with any solvent or cleaning agent. See FAQ at the top for product safety warnings. Pump Warranty Information: Customers using solvents such as stabilization resins (MinWax™, Gator Venom™ etc.), alcohol and other polar solvents must use the vacuum pumps in conjunction with a cold trap for evacuations in excess of 5 minutes. (Exludes Cactus Juice™) If the consumer is using the pump for prolonged periods of time exceeding 5 minutes we require that a cold trap is used or the pump warranty is void. These stabilization resins have the ability to break down the internal components of the pump that are plastic resulting in a seized motor voiding all warranties. When evacuation exceeds 5 minutes these solvents begin to vaporize and then re-condense in the vacuum pump reservoir. Once enough solvent re-condenses in the pump displacing the oil the plastic internal components may begin to warp, melt or seize. The use of a cold trap will condense the vapors prior to making their way to the vacuum pump preventing pump damage due to excessive use. Furthermore, Minwax Wood Hardener™ is not to be used with any vacuum pumps, EVER. (A seized motor will result within the first use.) To prevent these issues from happening to your process, change the Oil after each vacuum pump use, Even if the use time is only 5min.
