FAQs

1. What is the shelf life of Nitrobenzene AR when stored properly?

Nitrobenzene AR maintains its stability for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and incompatible substances.

2. Can Nitrobenzene AR be used as a substitute for benzene in certain reactions?

While both are aromatic compounds, Nitrobenzene AR has distinct chemical properties due to its nitro group, making it unsuitable as a direct substitute for benzene in most standard reactions.

3. What precautions should be taken when handling Nitrobenzene AR?

Always use in a well-ventilated area with appropriate personal protective equipment including gloves, goggles, and lab coat due to its toxic and irritant properties.

4. How does the AR grade differ from technical grade Nitrobenzene?

AR grade offers higher purity with strictly controlled impurity levels, making it suitable for analytical applications, whereas technical grade contains more impurities and is typically used in industrial processes.
