Naphtha (petroleum), light steam-cracked, hydrogenated; Low boiling point hydrogen treated naphtha [A complex combination of hydrocarbons produced from the separation and subsequent Hydrogenation of the products of a steam-cracking process to produce ethylene. It consists predominantly of saturated and unsaturated paraffins, cyclic paraffins and cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C4 through C10 and boiling in the range of approximately 50o C to 200o C (122 °F to 392 °F). The proportion of benzene hydrocarbons may vary up to 30 wt. % and the stream may also contain small amounts ofsulfur and oxygenated compounds.]
