Normal paraffins (n-paraffins) are linear, aliphatic hydrocarbons of C9-C17 chain lengths that are usually separated from kerosene or gas oil fractions of crude oil using molecular sieves. The major end use for n-paraffins is as a raw material for producing olefins or monochloroparaffins to manufacture LAB. N-paraffins are idyllic to be used in rubber solutions, adhesives, tyres manufacturing, wood treatment products, household cleaners, aerosol formulations and detergents. This range of odorless paraffins having low aromatic content is suitable for formulating quick drying lacquers, varnishes and paints as diluents. The n-paraffins are low toxic, biodegradable and highly pure due to which these find extensive applications in various domains.
