Xylene 100, a naturally occurring chemical, is extracted from coal and tar. Its chemical structure can be arranged in three different ways, allowing for the selection of one type by purification. This product is a 100% pure solution of one type of these three isomers, called para-xylene. This xylene is purified to para-xylene by thermal processing which is the most effective method of obtaining pure para-xylene.

Xylene 100, a naturally occurring chemical, is a clear and colourless liquid that is highly flammable. It must be stored in metal containers as it corrodes and degrades plastic over time. Xylene is more reactive at higher temperatures, so it is best stored at ambient or below 0°C. These measures are important to hold so that the quality of xylene is maintained. This is necessary for xylene to function as a chemical feedstock in industrial processes.

Para-xylene, also known as p-xylene is an essential chemical used to manufacture polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics. PET plastic is the standard semi-hard material used to make containers and fittings in industry. P-xylene is an integral component in the manufacture of polyester fibre used for insulation and heating. Our xylene, a clear and colourless liquid, is manufactured to suit the specific needs of plastic and insulative products in industry.
