Product Overview
This 99.7% pure methanol is a high-performance solvent specifically formulated for UV spectroscopy applications, ensuring minimal interference in absorbance measurements. With its exceptional purity level, it eliminates background noise and delivers consistent results in sensitive analytical techniques. The solvent undergoes rigorous distillation and filtration processes to remove impurities like aldehydes, ketones, and water, making it suitable for demanding laboratory procedures. Its low UV cutoff (typically <210 nm) ensures optimal transparency across the ultraviolet spectrum, while the controlled manufacturing process guarantees batch-to-batch consistency. The solvent’s anhydrous nature prevents moisture-related degradation of samples, and its compatibility with most organic compounds makes it versatile for various extraction and dilution protocols. Packaged in amber glass bottles to prevent photodegradation, this methanol maintains its stability during storage and transportation. The high evaporation rate and miscibility with water and organic solvents further enhance its utility in laboratory workflows.
