The global N-Hexane market size is predicted to grow from US$ 914 million in 2025 to US$ 1115 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2025 to 2031.
n-Hexane is a colorless, flammable liquid alkane with the chemical formula CāHāā. It is a straight-chain hydrocarbon and one of the components of gasoline.
n-Hexane is widely used as a solvent in various industrial applications, including the extraction of vegetable oils, cleaning agents, and in the formulation of adhesives and coatings. Due to its low boiling point and volatility, it is effective in processes requiring rapid evaporation. However, exposure to n-Hexane can pose health risks, particularly to the nervous system, which has led to regulations on its use.
The most common production method of n-Hexane involves the distillation of crude oil, where it is separated into various hydrocarbon fractions. n-Hexane is typically found in the C5-C6 fraction of the distillate. This fraction is further refined through processes like fractional distillation, where n-Hexane is separated from other hydrocarbons based on differences in boiling points.
Market Drivers for n-Hexane:
Industrial Demand: n-Hexane is widely used as a solvent in the extraction of vegetable oils, particularly in the food industry. The growing demand for edible oils, especially in developing countries, is driving the need for n-Hexane in extraction processes.
Growth in Adhesives and Coatings: The increasing use of n-Hexane in the production of adhesives, coatings, and sealants across various industriesāsuch as automotive, construction, and consumer goodsācontributes significantly to market growth.
Pharmaceutical Applications: n-Hexane is utilized in the pharmaceutical industry for drug formulation and as a solvent in laboratory processes, which supports its demand as research and development activities expand.
