Application


  • Oil produced from Ghana Shea Nut crop for prospective industrial applications.: This study investigates the potential industrial uses of shea nut oil, focusing on its extraction and purification processes, which heavily utilize hexane as a solvent. The research emphasizes the application in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, reflecting the industrial versatility of hexane in extracting valuable natural products (Alale et al., 2024).

  • Bio-guided isolation of a new sesquiterpene from Artemisia cina with anthelmintic activity against Haemonchus contortus L3 infective larvae.: Demonstrates the use of hexane in the bio-guided isolation of bioactive compounds. This research provides a blueprint for natural product extraction methodologies in parasitology and pharmacognosy (Arango-De la Pava et al., 2024).

  • Enhancing the selectivity for light olefins through catalytic cracking of n-hexane by phosphorus doping on lanthanum-modified ZSM-5.: This study explores the catalytic roles of hexane in refining processes, particularly in enhancing the selectivity of light olefins, which are crucial in the petrochemical industry (Ali et al., 2024).
