Cyclopentane and cyclopentane 70 are used mainly in the foam blowing industry, and are particularly suitable for insulating foams used, for example, in home refrigeration appliances, although they also be used as aerosol propellants. Cyclopentane 70 is mixture of 70% cyclopentane and 30% isopentane, and differs from the pure cyclopentane grade mainly in its vapour pressure.

Ineos's codibutylene is a mixture of C8 isoolefins with a lower content of the highly branched isomers found in our diisobutylene and diisobutylene HP grades

Although lacking the isomeric purity of the diisobutylene grades, with a C 8 isoolefins content of better than 98%, and virtually zero sulphur and aromatics content, codibutylene is suitable for a range of chemical intermediate applications. These include the production of isononyl alcohol and acid for plasticisers and solvent components, and octylphenols.

Diisobutylene (diisobutene) is a mixture of C 8 isoolefins consisting of at least 90% 2,4,4-trimethylpentene-1/2 (split approximately 70/20) About 8% are other C₈ isometric olefins.

Diisobutylene is an intermediate for a range of chemical products. These include isononyl alcohol, acid and esters, octylphenol, and sulphur additives for fuels and pesticides. It is also used as a co-monomer in the production of polymeric elastomers. Hydrogenation of diisobutylene yields isooctane100, a high purity trimethylpentane mixture which is used in solvent extraction and as a reference fuel.

Diisobutylene HP is a high purity C 8 isoolefin grade resulting from a pre-treatment of the isobutylene feedstock. Typically, the 2,4,4-trimethylpentene-1/2 content is 95% (split approximately 77/18). About 5% are other C 8 isometric olefins.

Diisobutylene HP is an intermediate for a range of chemical products which require a high proportion of the more reactive 2,4,4-trimethylpentene-1/2 isomers to produce the required product quality. Examples include chain stoppers for polycarbonate resins, UV stabilisers and rubber chemicals.

Isooctane 100 is a mixture of C 8 isoparaffins which contains virtually no aromatics or sulphur compounds. At least 90% of the product consists of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane.

A major use is as a reference fuel, used in the development of new petrol (gasoline) blends. The fuel ‘octane' number, familiar from the garage forecourt, is based on the 2,2,4-trimethylpentane standard.

Isododecane is a mixture of highly branched C12 isoparaffins, mainly the 2,2,4,6,6-pentamethylheptane isomer (typically c.a. 85%). Due to it's synthetic origins, Isododecane is virtually free of aromatics, sulphur containing molecules and polar compounds, which makes it particularly suitable for all applications in which stringent demands are made regarding purity.

Isohexadecane is a mixture of highly branched C 16 isoparaffins with a small proportion of C₁₂ and C₂₀ paraffins of similar structure.The main use of isohexadecane is in high quality cosmetic and personal care products, where very low toxicity and skin irritation, and a lack of colour and odour are essential properties. Isohexadecane forms particularly robust emulsions (creams), which is an important feature for the product formulator. To the consumer, the non-greasy silky feel that isohexadecane products leave on the skin is particularly appreciated. Foundation creams, sun care creams, lip creams, deodorants and antiperspirant sticks, make up removers and hair conditioners are amongst the products that have been formulated with isohexadecane.

Tetraisobutane 90 is the industrial grade of the Ineos isohexadecane recommended for applications that do not have the exacting requirements demanded by consumer products. It is mixture of highly branched C 16 isoparaffins with a small proportion of C 12 and C 20 paraffins, consisting mainly of 2,2,4,4,6,8,8 heptamethylnonane. Due to its synthetic origins, tetraisobutane 90 is virtually free of aromatics, sulphur containing molecules and polar compounds.

Isoeicosane is a mixture of highly branched C₂₀ isoparaffins with not more than 10 % C₁₆ isoparaffins.

EC alkane 180/245 is a special blend of Isoparaffins produced solely as a fuel for ‘Japanese furnaces'; domestic heating units popular for holiday homes in Southern Europe. Gentle, easily controlled burning characteristics coupled with ultra low odour are essential properties for this product.
