1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene
1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene is an aromatic chemical substance identified by its named ring and substituent structure.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene, a flammable colorless liquid with a strong odor, occurs naturally in coal tar and petroleum. It is a major component (typically 40%) of a petroleum refinery distillation fraction known as the C9 aromatic fraction (or simply the C9 fraction).
The full named identity, positional or stereochemical form, assay basis, impurity profile and supplied form define 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene. Material qualification and downstream formulation acceptance are distinct requirements; report segmentation is not a supplier specification.
The commercial boundary
Use the selected edition’s stated product level, geography, years and measurement basis. Materials, components, finished systems and services are separate commercial boundaries unless that edition explicitly combines them.
