“SHAIKH PETROLEUM” is one of the reliable names in the Oil & Petroleum Market in Bharuch Dist. Shaikh Petroleum is wholesale & Retail Suppliers of Light Diesel Oil & Furnace Oil C9 C10 & MTO.

Brief About Products: Light Diesel Oil Light Diesel Oil falls under class C category fuel having flash point above 66OC. It is a blend of distillate components and a small amount of residual components. It is marketed under BIS 1460-2000 specification for Diesel fuels.

Aromatic solvent C10 (also known as Solvesso 150; aromatic 150; A150; and kocosol 150) is a colourless, clear liquid with a mild aromatic odour. It is a member of the petroleum hydrocarbon family and consists predominately of C9-C11 aromatic hydrocarbons, predominately C10.

 C10 Solvent Uses :

C10 solvent is a high boiling point (181-205 °C) aromatic hydrocarbon solvent used mainly in paints and coatings, printing inks, and the agrochemical industry. It has a flash point and evaporation rate higher than that of Xylene and therefore imparts better flow and film formation making it useful in the paint and coatings industry. It also has no ethyl-benzene content and is therefore desired for environmentally friendly agrochemical and pesticide formulations.

C10 Solvent is a resin blend stock for foundries and has down hole applications in oilfields. It is also ideal for use in process additive fluids such as chloro-rubber formulations, synthetic resins, and oil-modified alkyds.
