Direct supply from Shandong Saier Chemical's strategic manufacturing facility. Engineered for stability, optimal boiling ranges, and absolute compliance.
In the modern industrial chemistry landscape, heavy aromatic hydrocarbons—specifically those categorised under the C9 Hydrocarbon fraction—constitute the backbone of advanced coatings, specialty resins, agricultural emulsifiers, and printing technologies. Choosing a strategic, high-capacity C9 Hydrocarbon supplier is not merely a purchasing transaction; it is a critical alignment of supply chain stability, technical compliance, and formulation efficiency. As an industry leader founded in December 2004, Shandong Saier Chemical Technology Development Co., Ltd. offers a synthesis of deep chemical refining expertise and large-scale industrial capability to meet the requirements of international buyers.
C9 hydrocarbons are refined from the aromatic fractions generated during the pyrolysis of petroleum or catalytic reforming processes. The C9 fraction is a complex mixture of aromatic compounds containing nine carbon atoms, including trimethylbenzenes (such as 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene), methylethylbenzenes, indene, propylbenzene, and ortho/meta/para-ethyltoluenes.
Through state-of-the-art continuous fractionation, distillation, and solvent extraction technologies, Shandong Saier Chemical processes these streams into highly purified grades. These include Aromatic Solvent S100 (CAS No. 64742-95-6), S150, S150ND (Naphthalene Depleted), S180, and S200. The precise control of the boiling point range (typically between 150°C and 280°C) determines the evaporation rate, flash point, and solvency power (measured by Kauri-Butanol value), making our C9 and C10 based solvents critical for formulating top-tier industrial coatings and agricultural chemical delivery systems.
Established at the heart of Zibo City's industrial zone—No. 207, WeiLiu Road, Qilu Chemical Industrial Park, Linzi, Zibo City, Shandong Province—Shandong Saier Chemical entered the market with a robust registered capital of 60 million yuan. Since our genesis, we have leveraged the geographic and structural benefits of being situated in one of China’s most prestigious petrochemical zones.
In our early phases, we secured consistent feedstocks of crude C9/C10 aromatics directly from the nation's refining giants: Sinopec, PetroChina, ChemChina, Zhejiang Petrochemical, and Hengli Petrochemical. This premium feedstock securement guaranteed that our end-products maintained absolute batch consistency. Our initial product matrix focused heavily on high-boiling aromatic solvents (solvent naphtha, TOPSOL, KOCOSOL, Aromatic Hydrocarbons, and NAFTA DISOLVENTE SOLVESSO) alongside specialized heat transfer oils (such as L-QC320) and high-value intermediates like durene, PVC plasticizers, thiophene, 1,3-cyclohexanedione, MIPK, TMOF, TMOA, HPA, and TMG.
How Zibo’s petrochemical infrastructure translates to reliability, cost-efficiency, and scale for global enterprise procurement.
Our location in Zibo City provides direct pipeline access to upstream heavy aromatic feeds, minimizing logistics costs and stabilizing supply during market volatility.
Equipped with computerized automation systems, our columns perform multi-stage separation to isolate high-purity fractions with sharp boiling ranges.
To meet modern safety standards, Saier Chemical offers customized low-naphthalene variants (under 10ppm or 100ppm) for sensitive agrochemical and coating applications.
The chemical profile of C9 and heavier aromatic solvents dictates their application parameters. Each grade is defined by its flash point, evaporation rate, KB (Kauri-Butanol) value, and boiling range:
Aromatic Solvent S100 (CAS No. 64742-95-6): Composed mainly of C9 aromatics, S100 offers a boiling range of 150°C to 180°C and a flash point of >40°C. Known for high solvency, it is widely utilized in high-grade industrial stoving enamels, automotive paints, and agricultural formulations where rapid but controlled evaporation is key.
Aromatic Solvent S150 (CAS No. 64742-94-5): Formulated with C9-C11 hydrocarbon chains, this solvent has a boiling range of 180°C to 210°C and a flash point of >62°C. S150 is the industry standard for emulsifiable concentrates (EC) in crop protection, where its high flash point enhances safety while maintaining excellent solubility for active ingredients.
Aromatic Solvent S180 & S200: For high-temperature baking finishes and specialized heavy coatings, S180 and S200 (boiling ranges exceeding 220°C) provide excellent flow characteristics, leveling properties, and resistance to pinholing during thermal curing cycles.
Procurement professionals must look beyond pricing. True supply-chain integration requires alignment on technical standards. At Shandong Saier Chemical, quality assurance starts with raw material inspection via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to map aromatic profiles.
Our in-house labs test for density (ASTM D4052), distillation range (ASTM D86), flash point (ASTM D93), color (ASTM D1209, APHA), and total sulfur content. By adhering to international ISO 9001:2015 standards, we ensure that batches shipped to Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Southeast Asia match exact customer specifications.
