• Uses: Pentadecane is produced by isolation of n-paraffins (C9–C17) from kerosene and gas oil fractions of crude oil by selective adsorption and fractional distillation. It is used in organic synthesis and as solvent. n-Pentadecane is used in preparation method of Graphene/Alkane composite coating for Aluminum Alloy plate belt. Pentadecane is a linear alkane with high latent heat (~168 kJ/kg) and low melting point. These properties make it an ideal candidate as a phase change material (PCM) for cooling applications.
