Product Overview
Toluene CMOS is a high-purity, reagent-grade solvent widely used in laboratory settings for its excellent solvency properties and low moisture content. This colorless liquid is a derivative of benzene, offering a balanced combination of volatility and stability, making it ideal for organic synthesis, extraction processes, and cleaning applications. Its consistent purity ensures reliable results in analytical procedures, including chromatography and spectroscopy. The solvent is free from impurities that could interfere with sensitive reactions, ensuring reproducibility in experimental workflows. Toluene CMOS is also valued for its ability to dissolve a wide range of organic compounds, making it a versatile choice for researchers and technicians. Proper handling and storage are essential, as it is flammable and should be kept away from ignition sources. The reagent-grade classification guarantees compliance with stringent quality standards, making it suitable for demanding laboratory applications where precision is critical. Whether used as a reaction medium or for equipment cleaning, this solvent delivers performance without compromising safety or efficiency.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of Toluene CMOS when stored properly?
When stored in a tightly sealed container away from direct sunlight and moisture, Toluene CMOS maintains its stability for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture.
2. Is Toluene CMOS compatible with plastic containers for storage?
Toluene CMOS can degrade certain plastics over time. It is recommended to store it in glass or HDPE containers to prevent contamination or container failure.
3. Can Toluene CMOS be used as a substitute for xylene in histological applications?
While both are aromatic solvents, Toluene CMOS has different solvency properties and evaporation rates. It is not a direct substitute for xylene in tissue processing without protocol adjustments.
4. What safety precautions should be taken while handling Toluene CMOS?
Use in a well-ventilated area or fume hood, wear nitrile gloves, safety goggles, and a lab coat. Avoid inhalation and skin contact, as it is flammable and may cause irritation.
5. Does Toluene CMOS leave residues after evaporation?
High-purity Toluene CMOS evaporates cleanly without leaving significant residues, making it suitable for applications requiring minimal contamination, such as sample preparation.
