Petroleum toluene
(methylbenzene, toluene)
(methylbenzene, toluene)
The octane number of toluene is 115.7 - that is, it (as well as benzene and xylene) is an excellent high-octane additive in gasoline. It is used more often than many additives due to its prevalence and low cost.
It is used in the production and application of epoxy, vinyl, acrylic, nitrocellulose, chlorinated rubber paints and varnishes. It is used as a solvent for many polymers in chemical synthesis and is part of various commercial solvents for varnishes and paints. Also serves for the secondary clarification of gasoline and as an additive in the manufacture of engine oils.

Toluene is used as a raw material for organic synthesis, a solvent in the paint and varnish industry, and as a main component it is a part of mixed solvents
The most common use of toluene is as a solvent and thinner for a wide variety of chemicals.
Toluene perfectly dissolves cellulose ethers, polystyrene, acrylate and vinyl polymers. When heated, it dissolves polyethylene.
Toluene is not as toxic as benzene, which is why it is so widespread. It can be used for production of nitrotoluenes, benzyl chlorides, benzoic acid.
Mixes up unlimitedly with hydrocarbons, many alcohols and ethers.
