Safety and Handling
Important Risk Note: Carbon tetrachloride is a hazardous chemical. Always use in a well-ventilated area with proper personal protective equipment (PPE). Avoid inhalation, skin contact, and ingestion. Store in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances.
For detailed safety information, refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provided with your order. eqipped prioritizes safe chemical handling and provides all necessary documentation with your purchase.
Why This Product Stands Out
The Emplura® grade from Merck represents the highest purity level available for carbon tetrachloride. Unlike technical grades, this product undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure:
- Low water content for consistent results
- Minimal residual impurities
- Batch-to-batch consistency
- Full traceability and certification
When you buy carbon tetrachloride from eqipped, you’re getting more than just a chemical – you’re getting a solution backed by Merck’s reputation for quality and our commitment to customer support.
Storage and Shelf Life
Store unopened containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, use within 12 months for optimal performance. Always keep containers tightly sealed when not in use to prevent contamination or evaporation.
Compatibility Information
Carbon tetrachloride is compatible with most plastics but may degrade some rubber materials. It’s immiscible with water but soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and ether. Always test compatibility with your specific application before full-scale use.
Ordering Information

FAQs
What is the purity level of this carbon tetrachloride?
This Emplura® grade product meets analytical reagent specifications, typically with purity levels exceeding 99.5%. Exact specifications are available in the certificate of analysis provided with each batch.
Can I use this for GC-MS analysis?
While carbon tetrachloride can be used in some spectroscopic applications, we recommend consulting your instrument’s guidelines as some modern GC-MS systems may have restrictions on halogenated solvents.
What safety precautions should I take when handling?
Always work in a fume hood, wear nitrile gloves, safety goggles, and a lab coat. The vapor is heavier than air and can accumulate in low areas, so ensure proper ventilation.
How does this compare to technical grade carbon tetrachloride?
The Emplura® grade has significantly fewer impurities, making it suitable for analytical applications where technical grade would introduce interference. The price difference reflects this higher purity level.
What’s the typical delivery time for this product?
Most orders ship within 1-2 business days. Delivery times vary by location but typically range from 3-7 days for major Indian cities. eqipped offers express shipping options for urgent requirements.
