Looking for an extraction solvent that leaves little to no residue and minimizes impurities that can contaminate your extracts and tinctures? Look no further than our high-quality Ethyl Alcohol 70% proof. What is Ethyl Alcohol?  Ethyl alcohol, also known as ethanol or grain alcohol among other things is a colorless liquid that’s typically the base ingredient in alcoholic beverages including wine, beer, and brandy. Due to its effortless capability to dissolve in water and other organic compounds, this ethyl can be applied in a variety of industries including cosmetic, personal care, and extraction.  A 70% concentration of ethyl alcohol is extremely effective in the processing application. Ethanol is effective in killing microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Ethyl alcohol at concentrations of 70%–80%  can be a potent virucidal agent. That’s why it’s a common component for hand sanitizer brands. In addition, ethyl can be safely applied as a solvent for many products including essential oils,  concentrate, and tinctures.  Produce better quality extract by reducing mystery oils. Ensure safer processing with supreme cleaning agents.

Chemical Synthesis: Heptane can be used as a reactant or solvent in chemical synthesis processes to produce various organic compounds. It's important to note that heptane should be handled with care, especially in industrial and laboratory settings, due to its flammability and potential health hazards. Proper safety measures and ventilation are essential when working with this solvent. How Is Heptane Produced? Heptane is primarily produced through the refining of crude oil, a process that separates hydrocarbons of different chain lengths. Here's a simplified overview of the production process: Crude Oil Refining: The production of heptane begins with the refining of crude oil, which contains a mixture of hydrocarbons with varying chain lengths and properties. Fractional Distillation: In the refining process, crude oil is heated and subjected to fractional distillation. This process separates the crude oil into various fractions based on boiling points. Heptane falls within a specific range of boiling points and is separated from other hydrocarbons during this distillation process. Fraction Separation: Once the appropriate fraction is obtained, further separation may be necessary to isolate pure heptane. This can involve additional distillation or purification techniques to remove impurities and other hydrocarbons. Quality Control: The resulting heptane undergoes quality control measures to ensure that it meets the required specifications and purity standards for its intended applications. Quality control may include testing for impurities, moisture content, and other properties. Packaging and Distribution: After quality control, heptane is packaged into containers suitable for its intended use and distribution to various industries and customers. It's worth noting that heptane can also be produced synthetically through chemical processes, such as the hydrogenation of hexene or the cracking of longer hydrocarbon chains. However, the primary source of heptane for industrial and commercial applications is typically derived from crude oil refining due to its cost-effectiveness and abundance. What Are The Hazards Of Heptane? Heptane, a highly flammable hydrocarbon, poses several hazards that individuals and workers should be aware of when handling or working with it. Here are some of the key hazards associated with heptane: Flammability: Heptane is extremely flammable and can ignite easily in the presence of open flames, sparks, or heat sources. It has a wide flammable range and can form explosive mixtures with air. Adequate ventilation and proper storage precautions are essential to prevent fires and explosions. Vapor Inhalation: Inhaling heptane vapors can lead to health risks, including dizziness, headaches, nausea, and respiratory irritation. Prolonged exposure to high concentrations of heptane vapor can result in more severe health effects, such as central nervous system depression and damage to the respiratory system. Skin Contact: Heptane can cause skin irritation and may lead to dermatitis or chemical burns upon prolonged or repeated contact. It can also defat the skin, removing protective oils and potentially resulting in dryness and cracking. Eye Contact: Contact with heptane can cause eye irritation, redness, and discomfort. Proper eye protection, such as safety goggles or a face shield, should be worn when handling heptane to prevent eye exposure. Ingestion: Swallowing heptane can be harmful and should be avoided. Ingestion of heptane may lead to gastrointestinal distress, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Environmental Impact: Spills or improper disposal of heptane can have negative environmental consequences. Heptane is volatile and can contribute to air pollution. It may also contaminate soil and water if not handled and disposed of properly. Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs): Regulatory authorities, such as OSHA in the United States, have established occupational exposure limits for heptane to protect workers. Adhering to these limits and implementing proper safety measures in the workplace is essential to mitigate exposure risks. It's crucial to handle heptane with caution, follow safety protocols, and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with this solvent. Additionally, safe storage, handling, and disposal practices are essential to minimize the associated hazards and ensure workplace safety. How Can I Safely Use Heptane?

Labeling: Clearly label heptane containers with appropriate hazard warnings and information to identify the contents. Emergency Equipment: Maintain access to safety equipment, including emergency eyewashes, safety showers, and fire extinguishers, in the workspace. Training: Ensure that personnel handling heptane receive proper training on its hazards, safe handling procedures, and emergency response protocols. Avoiding Skin Contact: Minimize skin contact with heptane. In case of contact, wash the affected area immediately with soap and water. Use barrier creams or protective clothing as an additional precaution. Eye Protection: Wear safety goggles or a face shield to protect your eyes from splashes or accidental exposure. No Smoking or Eating: Prohibit smoking, eating, or drinking in areas where heptane is present, as ingestion or inhalation of heptane can be harmful. Disposal: Follow proper waste disposal procedures for heptane and other hazardous materials. Dispose of waste in accordance with local regulations. Emergency Response: Establish and communicate emergency response procedures for heptane-related incidents, including fire, spills, and exposure incidents. Regular Inspections: Conduct regular inspections of equipment, storage areas, and safety measures to ensure they remain in good condition. It's essential to adhere to safety guidelines, have safety protocols in place, and prioritize the well-being of personnel when working with heptane. Always consult safety data sheets (SDS) and regulatory guidelines specific to heptane in your region for additional safety information and requirements. What Is The Boiling Point Of Heptane? The boiling point of heptane is approximately 98 degrees Celsius or 208 degrees Fahrenheit. Is Heptane Miscable With Water? Heptane is not miscible with water. It is considered hydrophobic, which means it does not mix well with water and tends to form separate layers when combined. What Is The Flash Point Of Heptane?  The flash point of heptane, specifically n-heptane, is approximately -4 degrees Celsius (24.8 degrees Fahrenheit). This is the temperature at which it can produce enough vapor to ignite briefly if exposed to an open flame or spark. Heptane is considered highly flammable and should be handled with caution in environments where there is a risk of ignition.

(Excludes 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.

(Exludes Cactus Juice™) f 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.

N-Pentane, also known as normal pentane, is a straight-chain alkane hydrocarbon with the molecular formula C5H12. It is one of the isomers of pentane, a hydrocarbon that consists of five carbon atoms bonded together in a linear, unbranched chain. n-Pentane is called "normal" because its carbon atoms are arranged in a continuous, straight chain, without any branching. What Are The Properties Of N-Pentane? Here are some of the key properties of n-pentane: Physical State: At room temperature and standard atmospheric pressure, n-pentane is a colorless, clear, and highly flammable liquid. Odor: It has a gasoline-like or organic solvent-like odor. Boiling Point: The boiling point of n-pentane is approximately 36.1 degrees Celsius (97 degrees Fahrenheit). This relatively low boiling point makes it useful in various applications. Density: The density of n-pentane at room temperature is about 0.626 grams per milliliter (g/mL). It is less dense than water, which has a density of 1 g/mL. Solubility: n-Pentane is sparingly soluble in water, which means it does not readily mix with water. This is because it is a nonpolar compound, and water is a polar solvent. However, it is highly soluble in nonpolar solvents and organic compounds. Flammability: n-Pentane is highly flammable and poses a fire hazard. It has a low flash point and can easily ignite when exposed to an open flame or heat source. Vapor Pressure: It has a relatively high vapor pressure at room temperature, meaning it readily evaporates into the air. Chemical Structure: As a straight-chain alkane, n-pentane consists of five carbon atoms bonded together in a linear fashion, with 12 hydrogen atoms bonded to these carbons. Molar Mass: The molar mass of n-pentane is approximately 72.15 grams per mole (g/mol). Reactivity: n-Pentane is relatively unreactive under normal conditions and does not readily undergo chemical reactions with common reagents. Uses: It is used as a laboratory solvent, industrial solvent, component in fuel blends, foam blowing agent, and as a chemical reagent in various applications. Safety Precautions: Due to its high flammability, proper safety precautions should be taken when handling n-pentane. It should be stored away from open flames, sparks, and heat sources. Environmental Impact: Like other hydrocarbons, the combustion of n-pentane releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change. n-Pentane is commonly employed in laboratory and industrial settings as a solvent, and its physical and chemical properties make it suitable for various applications. However, its flammability requires careful handling and storage to prevent accidents. 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. Isopentane: Isopentane is commonly used as a refrigerant and as a component in aerosol propellants, blowing agents for foam production, and as a solvent. Its lower boiling point and greater volatility make it useful in these applications. In summary, n-pentane and isopentane differ in their molecular structures, physical properties, boiling points, and applications. The choice between the two depends on the specific requirements of a given application, with n-pentane being less volatile and isopentane being more volatile. What Is The Structure Of N-Pentane? Pentane is an alkane with the chemical formula C5H12. It is a colorless, flammable liquid that is commonly used as a solvent and a fuel.

It is a natural component of crude oil, and the separation and purification of pentane from crude oil involve various refining techniques. Here's an overview of how pentane is produced: Fractional Distillation: Crude oil is first subjected to fractional distillation in an oil refinery. This process separates the crude oil into different fractions based on their boiling points. Pentane, along with other hydrocarbons of similar boiling points, is separated from the crude oil in this initial distillation step. Fraction Separation: The fraction obtained in the distillation containing pentane and similar hydrocarbons is further separated in subsequent distillation columns. These columns are designed to separate hydrocarbons with similar boiling points, and pentane is separated from other hydrocarbons through a series of distillation steps. Purification: After the initial separation, the pentane fraction may still contain impurities and other hydrocarbons. To obtain high-purity pentane, additional purification steps are often employed. One common method is solvent extraction, where selective solvents are used to remove impurities. Adsorption and molecular sieves may also be used for purification. Final Processing: The purified pentane may undergo additional processing steps to meet specific product specifications or requirements. For example, it may be dried to remove any remaining water content. Packaging and Distribution: Once purified and processed, pentane is typically packaged into containers suitable for transportation and distribution. It may be distributed to various industries where it is used for its specific applications. Overall, the production of pentane is part of the larger petroleum refining process, and its availability depends on the composition of the crude oil and the specific refining techniques employed by the refinery.

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

    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.
