Description

Application
trans-Decahydronaphthalene is used as a high-boiling solvent reaction medium heat-transfer fluid and laboratory reference compound in chemical research and industrial processes.

Purpose
Its purpose is to provide a chemically stable non-polar solvent for high-temperature reactions extraction processes and heat-transfer applications.

General Description
trans-Decahydronaphthalene is a colorless saturated bicyclic hydrocarbon and one of the two stereoisomers of decahydronaphthalene (decalin) known for its low reactivity good thermal stability and excellent solvent properties.
