CAS number 93762-80-2
Pentamer is a branched olefin produced by the polymerization of propylene. Pentamer is also referred to as propylene pentamer. It is preferred name for branched C15 olefin.
Pentamer is used for solvent applications and or carrier fluids (e.g. drilling fluids) and as a supplement or replacement for tetramer. Other applications are the production of alkylphenols, alkenylsucinnic anhydride, mercaptans, alcohols and for alkylation of benzene. Pentamer can be used as a synthetic base oil, a refrigeration fluid and as an intermediate for further reaction (e.g. sulphonation).

CAS number 97593-01-6
Propylene Trimer, also known as Nonene, is a chemical compound derived from the polymerization of propylene. It has a chemical formula of C9H18 and is characterized by a molecular structure with nine carbon atoms. Nonene is typically produced through the process of oligomerization of propylene, resulting in the formation of larger molecules. The most commonly obtained product is the isomer 1-Nonene, which plays a crucial role in various industrial applications.
Production Process:
Nonene is generally produced by oligomerizing propylene, a gaseous hydrocarbon, using a suitable catalyst and specific reaction conditions. This process involves:
- Oligomerization: Propylene is chemically combined (oligomerized) to form larger molecules, with the isomer 1-Nonene being the most common target. Catalysts such as solid phosphoric acid or other transition metal compounds are often used to facilitate this reaction.
Applications:
Nonene, particularly the isomer 1-Nonene, finds applications in various industrial sectors, including:
-
Production of Linear Alkylbenzenes (LAB): Isomer 1-Nonene is a key component in the production of linear alkylbenzenes (LAB), which are used in the manufacture of biodegradable detergents and household cleaning products.
