I-N-hexane iyinhlanganisela ye-organic enefomula ethi C6H14, eyingxenye ye-straight chain saturated fatty hydrocarbons, etholiwe.kusukela ekuqhekekeni nasekuhlukaniseni uwoyela ongahluziwe, uketshezi olungenambala olunephunga elincanyana elihlukile. Iyaguquguquka, cishe ayincibilikiemanzini, encibilika ku-chloroform, ether, ethanol [1]. Ikakhulukazi esetshenziswa njenge-solvent, njenge-solvent yamafutha yemifino, i-propylenei-polymerization solvent, i-raber ne-solvent kapende, i-pigment thinner. [2] Isetshenziselwa ukukhipha uwoyela kubhontshisi wesoya, i-rice bran,i-cottonseed namanye amafutha adliwayo nezinongo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-isomerization ye-n-hexane ingenye yezinqubo ezibalulekile
ukukhiqiza izingxenye ze-harmonic ze-octane ephezulu kaphethiloli.
