The global n-hexane market size reached USD 2,721.0 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 3,570.4 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 2.91% during 2025-2033. The widespread product adoption as a solvent for industrial and chemical products, significant growth in the pharmaceutical industry, and increasing product demand in the food sector as an oil extraction agent are some of the major factors propelling the market.

N-hexane (C6H14) is a volatile aliphatic hydrocarbon that is obtained as a byproduct of crude oil refining and natural gas processing. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature with a mild, gasoline-like odor. It is commonly used in extraction processes, such as oil extraction from seeds and vegetables and cleaning and degreasing. N-hexane is also used as a component in solvent blends for various applications, including paint thinners and ink formulations. It exhibits a low melting point, high flammability, and miscibility with other hydrocarbons and organic solvents. As a result, N-hexane finds extensive applications across the oil extraction, pharmaceuticals, and electronics manufacturing industries.
