#HEXANE
At night, Ukrainian drones struck the Saratov oil refinery, igniting a fire near the AVT-6 unit. One UAV reportedly failed to hit the pentane-hexane isomerization unit due to an anti-drone net.

💥 Satellite images of visible damage to the Saratov Oil Refinery.

The pentane-hexane isomerization unit, which produces high-quality AI-95 gasoline, was damaged.

The damage to the refinery is much more extensive.

Hexogen not hexane

Hexane is a relatively nontoxic light hydrocarbon frequently used as a solvent

Hexogen is better known as RDX, a primary component of plastic explosives like C-4

But it's not a chemical warfare agent at all

🇩🇪❗️Another drone with explosives found near Leipzig airport

It contained 50 grams of hexane, a powerful chemical warfare agent.

Another drone, according to investigators, may have collided with a DHL cargo plane that same night - damage was later found on its tail.

🔥 Update: The Saratov Oil Refinery was hit by a drone attack. A fire was recorded near the AVT-6 unit, which is responsible for primary oil processing.

One of the UAVs was unable to hit the pentane-hexane fraction isomerization unit due to a stretched anti-drone net,l.

2/This is an industrial unit that converts straight-run gasoline fractions (pentane-hexane) into a high-octane gasoline component using the low-temperature isomerization process.

anyway then i was born 8 years later and whatever kind of like aerosolized hexane or whatever was in those fumes my parents both inhaled a ton of gave me posters madness and that's why im on bluesky

7/ Addressing another concern, yes, seed oils are processed using hexane. And while trace amounts of hexane can remain, these levels are extremely low. Levels are much less than what we’re exposed to from air pollution. Cold-pressed oils are an option, but pricier & less shelf-stable.

Uuuuuuuugh fiiiiiiiiiiiiiine, just don't touch the seal surface unless you wanna know what two hours of hexane cleaning is like

N-Hexane has been demonstrated by dentists to be an excellent mouthwash.

I’m drinking methane, ethane, propane, butane, pentane, hexane, octane, and nonane, but never HEPTANE

if you ask me we should be giving MORE money to scientists who want to piddle around with teaching frogs to sniff out hexane or whatever. if you can dream it you can do it buddy

you know what? fuck you

This is hexane. A terribly explosive molecular worm. It’s like if benzene wasn’t a ring, but a string. I’d still rather work with the hex rather than the ‘zene. Ol’ Benny likes to become all sorts of wacky chemicals in the liver and is significantly more dangerous

DeRefinerization 02.08 📝✅

Saratov Oil Refinery was hit overnight. Preliminary data indicate impacts near the catalytic reforming units, the ELOU-AVT-6 crude distillation unit, and the pentane-hexane isomerization unit. One of the fires may involve the refinery's flare system.

Yes! Ethanol DOES have a lower oxidation rate than hexane. That's why its autoignition point is higher than hexane, and it's WHY IT'S USED TO LOWER THE REACTIVITY OF FUEL.

It's like, you have the high level chemistry correct and then wildly misapplied it to the core problem.

The compound was crystallized from hexane and chloroform, they said....
Collect good data, they said...
I don't want to see hexane with <20% occupancy, but I see it and have to refine it.

Did you ever record 17O #NMR spectra? This is just an example of the water spectrum (in hexane!). I'm always astonished by his beauty 😍

A Ukrainian drone explodes in the area which is labeled as Pentane-hexane fraction isomerization unit by some sources equipped with nets.
