Cyclopentane is used in the manufacture of synthetic resins and rubber adhesives and also as a blowing agent in the manufacture of polyurethane insulating foam, as found in many domestic appliances such as refrigerators and freezers, replacing environmentally damaging alternatives such as CFC-11 and HCFC-141b. More advanced technologies, such as computer hard drives and outerspace equipment employ multiply alkylated cyclopentane (MAC) lubricants because of their extremely low volatility.


Cyclopentane is is a highly flammable alicyclic hydrocarbon. Read the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before use. Dangerous or hazardous reactions do not take place under normal conditions.
