Key Applications
This high-purity hexane mixture finds use in numerous laboratory applications including:
Chromatography – as a mobile phase in gas chromatography and thin-layer chromatography
Extraction processes – for isolating compounds from plant materials and other samples
General laboratory cleaning – for degreasing and cleaning glassware
Sample preparation – in various analytical techniques
Solvent for reactions – in organic synthesis procedures
Safety and Handling
While hexanes are essential laboratory solvents, proper handling is crucial. Always use in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including gloves and safety goggles. Store in a cool, dry place away from ignition sources.
This product is highly flammable and should be kept away from open flames and heat sources. In case of skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water. For eye contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention.
Why This Product Stands Out
The Emparta® ACS grade designation means this hexane mixture meets or exceeds the purity standards set by the American Chemical Society. Unlike technical grade solvents, this product undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure minimal impurities that could interfere with your analyses.
Merck’s reputation for quality reagents means you can trust the consistency from batch to batch. The 2.5-liter size provides excellent value for laboratories with regular hexane needs while maintaining product freshness.
When you buy hexanes online from eqipped, you’re getting genuine Merck products with proper documentation and certification, ensuring traceability for your quality systems.
Technical Details
