Description
Xylene (CAS 1330-20-7 ), also known as xylol, is an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent sourced as a mixed isomer blend used across coatings, adhesives, and chemical manufacturing. It dissolves a broad range of resins, oils, and polymers that resist less aggressive solvents, making it a preferred carrier in high-performance formulations for industrial applications. Demand is consistent across industrial cleaning, printing, and automotive sectors where solvent strength and evaporation rate are critical sourcing criteria for manufacturers and distributors. In coatings and paints, xylene thins alkyd, epoxy, and polyurethane resins to achieve correct application viscosity for industrial and architectural finishes and protective surface layers. Rubber compounders use it to dissolve and process natural and synthetic rubber during adhesive and sealant manufacturing. Printing ink producers rely on it as a carrier solvent. In automotive refinishing and industrial cleaning, it cuts through grease, wax, and cured coatings to prepare metal and plastic surfaces before treatment or final finishing processes. Xylene is supplied as a clear liquid in drum, IBC, and bulk tanker quantities. It is available in mixed xylenes as the standard commercial form with high purity specifications. Industrial-grade and solvent-grade designations are the most commonly traded specifications across global markets, typically ranging from 98% to 99%+ purity for various uses.
