Product Overview

This acetone 1% w/v solution is a high-purity laboratory reagent designed for precision applications. Formulated with 1% acetone in a stable aqueous base, it serves as an effective solvent for organic compounds, residue removal, and experimental procedures. The solution maintains consistent concentration, ensuring reliable results in analytical and preparative workflows. Its low volatility at this dilution makes it safer for controlled environments while retaining acetone’s key solvent properties. The reagent-grade quality guarantees minimal impurities, reducing interference in sensitive applications. Packaged in a durable 1000 ml container, it offers convenient handling for routine lab operations. The solution’s balanced composition makes it particularly useful where full-strength acetone would be overly aggressive, providing a gentler alternative without compromising efficacy.

FAQs

1. What is the shelf life of this acetone solution?

When stored properly in its original sealed container at room temperature, this 1% acetone solution maintains its specified properties for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture.

2. Can this solution be used with plastic containers?

The 1% concentration makes it generally safe for short-term contact with most lab-grade plastics like HDPE and PP, but prolonged exposure may still cause some degradation. Always verify compatibility with your specific container material.

3. What’s the difference between this and pure acetone?

This 1% solution contains acetone diluted in water, offering milder solvent action compared to pure acetone. It’s less volatile, less flammable, and provides more controlled dissolution rates for sensitive applications.

4. How should I dispose of this solution?

Follow standard laboratory protocols for aqueous organic waste disposal. Neutralize if required by local regulations before disposal through approved chemical waste channels.

5. Is this solution sterile?

While the solution is prepared under clean conditions, it is not certified sterile. For applications requiring sterility, you would need to sterilize it using appropriate laboratory methods like filtration.
