Ethylbenzene is used as a solvent for rubber adhesives, varnishes, resins, paints and coatings. It acts as an intermediate in the preparation of styrene. It is also used as a fuel additive. It is added to gasoline as an anti-knock agent, thereby reducing engine knocking and increase the octane rating. In addition to this, it is used in natural gas recovery process.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
