BAB, branched alkyl benzene, (also called branched dodecylbenzene DDB) is a petrochemical produced through alkylation of benzene by propylene tetramer. It is a clear and limpid non corrosive liquid, with a high oxidative and thermal stability. Its hydrolysis stability is also very high. BAB is used in surfactant industry, plasticizer, solvent and base stock for metal working fluids like cutting oil, metal lamination, chemical intermediate synthesis, chemical additives. The combination of BAB superior thermal and lubricant

Pentanols – 99% (Isoamyl Alcohol)

Isoamyl Alcohol (at a minimum purity of 99%), is a mixture of isomers 3-methyl, 1-butanol and 2-methyl , 1-butanol, with a preponderance of the first (aproximately 85%). The raw material used by PETROM in the production of Isoamyl Alcohol is fusel oil, which in turn is a byproduct of the distilling of ethyl alcohol (ethanol).

Applications: The main applications of Isoamyl Alcohol are:

– the manufacturing of paints and varnishes, to produce isoamyl acetate;

– the manufacturing of plasticizers for the production of DIAP (DiisoAmyl phthalate);

– the manufacturing of perfumes, for the recovery of oils and essences;

– the synthesis of fragrances and aromas;

– the production of isoamyl salicylate, applied widely in soaps and cosmetic fragrances;

– the purification of phosphoric acid, acting as an extraction solvent.

– the production of Xanthates (mining industry)
