What is Hexane? Hexane is an organic solvent with the molecular formula C6H14. It is a colourless liquid with a mild odor and is highly flammable. Due to its low polarity, it is effective at dissolving nonpolar substances, such as oils, fats, and waxes. Hexane is frequently used in the extraction of vegetable oils, as well as in the cleaning and degreasing of machinery and equipment.
