FAQs
What is the difference between HPLC-grade and regular dichloromethane?
HPLC-grade dichloromethane undergoes additional purification steps to remove impurities that could interfere with chromatographic analysis. It also includes stabilizers like amylene to prevent degradation, ensuring consistent performance in HPLC systems.
Can I use this dichloromethane for non-HPLC applications?
Yes, this high-purity solvent is suitable for other applications like solvent extraction, organic synthesis, and general lab use. However, for non-critical applications, a lower grade may be more cost-effective.
How should I store dichloromethane to maintain its quality?
Store it in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep it away from strong oxidizing agents and sources of ignition. Proper storage prevents evaporation and contamination.
Is this product available in smaller quantities for research use?
Yes, eqipped offers this dichloromethane in 1LT and 2.5LT pack sizes, making it suitable for both small-scale research and larger laboratory needs.
What safety precautions should I take when handling dichloromethane?
Always use it in a fume hood or well-ventilated area. Wear nitrile gloves, safety goggles, and a lab coat. Avoid inhalation and skin contact, as it can cause irritation and other health effects.
