FAQs

1. What is the shelf life of 1,2-Dichloroethane when stored properly?

When stored in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, away from moisture and light, the shelf life is typically 24 months from the date of manufacture.

2. Is this product compatible with plastic labware?

1,2-Dichloroethane can dissolve certain plastics, so it is recommended to use glass or PTFE-coated containers for storage and handling.

3. Are there any safer alternatives for general solvent applications?

For less critical applications, dichloromethane or chloroform may be considered, but they have different solubility profiles and safety considerations.

4. How should I dispose of unused or expired 1,2-Dichloroethane?

Follow local hazardous waste disposal regulations; incineration in a licensed facility is the recommended method for safe disposal.

5. Can this product be used for HPLC applications?

While primarily designed for spectroscopy, its high purity makes it suitable for some HPLC applications, but compatibility should be verified with your specific method.
