Product Overview
CHLOROFORM SPECIALLY DRIED 99.8% AR is a high-purity, analytical-grade solvent designed for precision laboratory applications. This specially dried variant ensures minimal moisture content, making it ideal for processes where water interference could compromise results. With a purity level of 99.8%, it meets stringent quality standards for analytical and research-grade use. The solvent’s low reactivity and excellent dissolving properties make it a preferred choice for extractions, purifications, and as a medium in chromatography. Its stability and consistent composition ensure reliable performance in critical lab procedures. The AR grade designation guarantees adherence to strict purity benchmarks, providing researchers with confidence in their experimental outcomes. Proper handling and storage are essential to maintain its integrity, as it is sensitive to light and air exposure. This chloroform variant is a staple in laboratories requiring high-quality solvents for accurate and reproducible results.
FAQs
1. What is the difference between specially dried chloroform and regular chloroform?
Specially dried chloroform undergoes additional processing to remove trace moisture, making it more suitable for applications where water content could interfere with reactions or analyses.
2. Is this chloroform suitable for use in UV-Vis spectroscopy?
Yes, the high purity and low moisture content of this AR-grade chloroform make it appropriate for UV-Vis spectroscopy, provided proper handling protocols are followed.
3. Can this chloroform be used with plastic containers?
Chloroform can degrade certain plastics, so it is recommended to store and use it in glass containers to prevent contamination or container failure.
4. What is the shelf life of this chloroform?
When stored in a cool, dark place in a tightly sealed glass container, this chloroform can retain its purity for up to 12 months. Always check for signs of degradation before use.
5. Are there any stabilizers added to this chloroform?
This chloroform is typically supplied without added stabilizers, which makes it suitable for applications where stabilizers could interfere with results. However, it is advisable to verify the specific batch details for confirmation.
