Benzine for spice Re-x

[Phlux-]

seems it works just as well as heptane but costs like R13 per 750ml compared to the 250R or so for heptane.

noois! - and pix to come soon.

Well, it should work, shouldn't it? Hope it is benzine and not benzene! The latter would not work and its' also quite toxic!

In The Netherlands we have something called 'Wasbenzine' (washing benzine, really used for cleaning cloths in the past hence the name) and that is pretty much heptane that is slightly 'contaminated' with naphta and sometimes other hydrocarbons. I prefer wasbezine for my extractions since it evaps way faster than naphta. Just make sure you do an evap test beforehand to make sure it evaps clean, you should also check the MSDS to make sure it contains no bad stuff.


Kind regards,

so far it seems to be working perhaps even better than heptane.

benzine is fine.
