Product Overview
Acetic acid, 96% AnalaR NORMAPUR® analytical reagent, is a high-purity, glacial acetic acid designed for demanding laboratory applications. This reagent-grade solution meets stringent quality standards, ensuring minimal impurities and consistent performance in critical procedures. The 96% concentration provides a balance between reactivity and stability, making it suitable for titrations, solvent extractions, and organic synthesis. Its low water content reduces interference in sensitive reactions, while the AnalaR NORMAPUR® certification guarantees compliance with international analytical standards. The liquid form allows for easy dispensing and precise volume control, essential for reproducible results. Packaged in a durable container, it maintains purity during storage and handling. This acetic acid is particularly valued for its clarity, low residue, and compatibility with a wide range of laboratory glassware and equipment. Whether used as a solvent, catalyst, or reactant, its reliable composition supports accurate experimental outcomes.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of 96% acetic acid?
When stored properly in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, this acetic acid maintains its purity for up to 2 years from the date of manufacture.
2. Is this acetic acid compatible with plastic containers?
While short-term contact with HDPE or PP containers is acceptable, prolonged storage should use glass or PTFE-lined containers to prevent degradation.
3. Can this be used as a substitute for glacial acetic acid?
Yes, this 96% concentration is functionally equivalent to glacial acetic acid for most laboratory applications, though slight adjustments may be needed for highly sensitive protocols.
4. What precautions should be taken when handling this product?
Always use in a well-ventilated area with proper PPE (gloves, goggles, lab coat) due to its corrosive nature and strong vapor concentration.
5. How does the AnalaR NORMAPUR® grade differ from standard reagent grades?
AnalaR NORMAPUR® undergoes additional purification steps and stricter quality control, resulting in lower trace metal content and higher batch-to-batch consistency.
