What Is Naphtha?

 

  • A light distillate fraction obtained from refining crude oil.
  • Appears as a clear to pale yellow liquid.
  • Highly flammable and has a strong petroleum-like odor.

 

  Light naphtha ( as we focus on offer always ) is a volatile, flammable, light hydrocarbon liquid distilled from crude oil or natural gas condensates. It is widely used in petrochemical, fuel, and industrial applications.

Main Purposes of Light Naphtha

Industry Purpose / Application Why It’s Used
1. Petrochemical Feedstock for steam crackers To produce ethylene, propylene, butadiene – raw materials for plastics
2. Fuel blending Blended into gasoline (petrol) Increases octane rating and enhances volatility
3. Solvent production Base for making white spirit, cleaning solvents Used in paints, degreasers, adhesives
4. Aromatics production Used in catalytic reformers to make benzene, toluene, xylene (BTX) Raw material for dyes, detergents, plastics
5. Agriculture Solvent/carrier in pesticides and herbicides Helps dissolve active ingredients for spray application
6. Industrial cleaning Used as industrial degreasing agent Cuts through oil and grease in mechanical environments
7. Resin & rubber Used as a diluent or plasticizer Helps flow and flexibility in synthetic rubber/resins
8. Paint & coatings Thinner for paints, lacquers, varnishes Improves spreadability and drying
     

Types of Naphtha

Type Description Common Uses
Light Naphtha Lower boiling point (30–90°C), more volatile Petrochemical feedstock, gasoline blending
Heavy Naphtha Higher boiling point (90–200°C), less volatile Catalytic reforming, gasoline blending
Natural Naphtha Derived from natural gas condensate Used in ethylene production and solvents
Coal Tar Naphtha From coal tar distillation Used in some industrial chemicals
