Product Overview
2-Pentanone (99%+ purity) is a high-grade solvent purified through redistillation to ensure minimal impurities and consistent performance in laboratory applications. Packaged in AcrOSeal® containers, it offers enhanced chemical stability and reduced risk of contamination during storage. This clear, colorless liquid features a characteristic ketone odor and is miscible with most organic solvents, making it versatile for extractions, chromatography, and organic synthesis. Its low moisture content and controlled evaporation rate ensure reliable results in sensitive procedures. The AcrOSeal® packaging includes a tamper-evident seal and leak-proof design for safe handling. Compatible with standard glassware and most plastic labware, this solvent maintains its integrity across a wide temperature range. Ideal for researchers requiring reproducible outcomes, this redistilled 2-pentanone meets stringent purity standards for demanding laboratory protocols.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this 2-Pentanone when stored properly?
When stored in its original AcrOSeal® container at room temperature away from direct sunlight, this 2-Pentanone maintains its specified purity for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture.
2. Can this solvent be used with plastic labware?
It is compatible with most common plastic labware including polypropylene and PTFE, but prolonged exposure may cause swelling in some plastics like polystyrene. Always verify compatibility for your specific application.
3. How does the AcrOSeal® packaging differ from standard bottles?
The AcrOSeal® packaging features a multi-layer barrier system that reduces solvent evaporation and contamination, along with a tamper-evident seal to ensure product integrity during shipping and storage.
4. What is the typical moisture content in this redistilled 2-Pentanone?
This product undergoes rigorous drying during the redistillation process, resulting in a maximum moisture content of 0.05% as verified by Karl Fischer titration.
5. Are there any special disposal requirements for this solvent?
As a flammable liquid, it should be disposed of according to local regulations for organic solvents, typically through licensed chemical waste disposal services or incineration facilities.
