About Benzene
Benzene is a volatile aromatic hydrocarbon produced primarily through crude oil refining and coal tar distillation. Major industrial applications include synthesis of styrene, phenol, cyclohexane, and various chemical intermediates essential to plastics, resins, and pharmaceuticals. Internationally traded benzene is typically supplied as 99.9% purity liquid in ISO tanks or drums, with some specialty grades reaching 99.95% for sensitive applications. Principal producers and exporters include the Middle East, China, Western Europe, and the United States, with Asia representing the largest consumption region. Buyers should verify supplier compliance with ASTM D2359 or equivalent purity specifications and confirm proper handling protocols, as benzene's high volatility and toxicity require specialized storage and transportation infrastructure.
