Mixed xylene, also called xylol or dimethylbenzene, is a fast-evaporating aromatic solvent with strong solvency for oils, waxes and resins. Companies looking for a mixed xylene supplier in UAE use it as a solvent and diluent in oilfield chemicals, cleaning and coatings.
Corofy supplies mixed xylene from the Jebel Ali Free Zone to oilfield service companies, chemical blenders, paint and coatings makers and industrial users across the UAE, the GCC and export markets. See our full range of oil & gas chemicals.
Mixed Xylene Overview
Mixed xylene is a blend of the xylene isomers (ortho, meta and para), often with some ethylbenzene. As an aromatic hydrocarbon it dissolves materials that aliphatic solvents struggle with, including paraffin and asphaltene deposits, many resins and polymer binders.
Its evaporation rate sits between toluene and heavier aromatic solvents such as Solvent Naphtha 100, which makes it a practical choice where the solvent needs to flash off within a reasonable time.

Applications of Mixed Xylene
Mixed xylene is one of the most widely used aromatic solvents in the field and the plant.
Oilfield Deposit Removal
- Solvent for dissolving paraffin and asphaltene deposits in wells, flowlines and tanks.
- Used as a carrier or diluent in oilfield chemical treatments.
Chemical Formulation
- Solvent base for corrosion inhibitor, demulsifier and other oilfield blends.
- Diluent for adjusting viscosity of concentrated products.
Coatings & Cleaning
- Thinner and solvent in paints, coatings and adhesives.
- Degreasing and equipment cleaning in industrial settings.
In the oilfield, xylene is often the first solvent tried when wax or asphaltene deposits restrict flow, either on its own as a soak or as part of a formulated treatment. In the plant, it is a standard thinner and cleaning solvent. Its familiarity, predictable behaviour and wide availability are the main reasons it remains a default choice.

Handling, Storage & Safety
Mixed xylene is a highly flammable liquid and its vapour is harmful if inhaled. Handle it only as set out in the Safety Data Sheet: keep away from heat, sparks and open flames, earth and bond containers during transfer, use suitable PPE and ensure good ventilation. Store drums tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated area approved for flammable liquids.
