Aromatic Oil
Dow Aromatics fuel oil blending component products are mixtures of (mainly unsaturated) C9 to C15 components. They originate from the high temperature cracking of petroleum fractions and are separated out of pyrolysis gasoline (pygas) by distillation during the production of benzene.
Applications
Aromatic Oil can be blended into bunker fuel or fluxant. Aromatic Oil may also be used as a source for naphthalene or mixtures of naphthalene and methylnaphthalene for concrete plasticizers, phthalic anhydride and insecticides..
