Description
Naphtha is obtained in petroleum refineries as one of the intermediate products from the distillation of Crude Oil. It is a liquid intermediate between the light gases in the crude oil and the heavier liquid Kerosene. Naphthas are volatile, flammable and have a specific gravity of about 0.7. The generic name Naphtha describes a range of different refinery intermediate products used in different applications. To further complicate the matter, similar naphtha types are often referred to by different names.
