Cyclohexanone
Cyclohexanone
The great majority of cyclohexanone is consumed in the production of precursors to Nylon 6,6 and Nylon 6. About half of the world's supply is converted to adipic acid, one of two precursors for nylon 6,6. For this application, the KA oil (see above) is oxidized with nitric acid. The other half of the cyclohexanone supply is converted to cyclohexanone oxime. In the presence of sulfuric acid catalyst, the oxime rearranges to caprolactam, a precursor to nylon 6,Cyclohexanone has many industrial uses, primarily as an industrial chemical and chemical intermediate in the production of specific target molecules. In fact, the consumption of cyclohexanone is linked almost entirely to the nylon industry with derivatives oxidised to produce adipic acid and caprolactam, which are precursors for nylon 6. Up to 70% of the world’s caprolactam is produced via cyclohexanone.Other cyclohexanone derivatives are used for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, dyes, herbicides, pesticides, plasticisers, and rubber chemicals. Additional industry uses of cyclohexanone include as an adhesive, fuel, paint and coating additive and laboratory chemical.Cyclohexanone is found in various consumer products including in adhesives, paints, automotive, cleaning and furnishing care products, electronics, and photo chemicals.Cyclohexanone is used as a solvent for lacquers, paints, resins, degreasers, spot removers, polymers, copolymers, waxes, crude rubber, cellulose acetate, the manufacturing of herbicides and anihistamines.
