FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of di-n-butyl phthalate AR when stored properly?
When stored in its original sealed container at room temperature away from moisture and direct sunlight, di-n-butyl phthalate AR maintains its specified purity for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture.
2. Can this product be used as a direct substitute for other phthalate plasticizers?
While it shares similar properties with other phthalate plasticizers, substitution depends on the specific application requirements. Always verify compatibility with your protocol, as minor variations in molecular structure may affect performance.
3. What safety precautions should be taken when handling this chemical?
Use standard laboratory safety measures including gloves, goggles, and proper ventilation. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of vapors. In case of accidental exposure, rinse affected areas immediately with water and seek medical advice.
4. How does the AR grade differ from technical or industrial grades?
The AR grade undergoes rigorous purification processes to achieve higher purity levels (typically 99%+), with stricter controls on impurities compared to technical grades. This makes it more suitable for analytical and research applications where precision is critical.
5. Is this product compatible with common laboratory solvents?
Di-n-butyl phthalate AR is generally miscible with most organic solvents like ethanol, acetone, and toluene, but may have limited solubility in water. Always perform small-scale compatibility tests before full integration into your procedures.
