Product Overview

ANILINE 99.5% AR is a high-purity analytical reagent-grade chemical designed for precise laboratory applications. This colorless to pale yellow liquid exhibits a characteristic aromatic odor and is widely recognized for its role as a key intermediate in organic synthesis. With a minimum assay of 99.5%, it ensures reliable and reproducible results in chemical reactions, particularly in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and rubber processing chemicals. The AR grade designation guarantees low impurity levels, making it suitable for sensitive analytical procedures and research applications. Aniline’s reactivity with acids and oxidizing agents necessitates careful handling, and its solubility in organic solvents further enhances its versatility in laboratory settings. Proper storage in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and incompatible substances is essential to maintain its stability and purity over time.

FAQs

1. What is the shelf life of Aniline 99.5% AR when stored properly?

When stored in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place away from light and moisture, Aniline 99.5% AR typically retains its stability for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture. Always check the label for the exact expiry date.

2. Is Aniline 99.5% AR compatible with glass containers for storage?

Yes, Aniline 99.5% AR can be safely stored in glass containers, preferably amber-colored bottles to minimize exposure to light. Ensure the container is airtight to prevent oxidation and contamination.

3. Can this grade of aniline be used for HPLC or GC analysis?

Aniline 99.5% AR is suitable for general analytical applications, but for HPLC or GC analysis, a higher purity grade (such as HPLC or GC grade) is recommended to avoid interference from potential trace impurities.

4. What precautions should be taken while handling Aniline 99.5% AR?

Aniline is toxic and can be absorbed through the skin. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, goggles, and a lab coat. Work in a fume hood to avoid inhalation, and ensure proper ventilation in the workspace.

5. Are there any alternatives to Aniline 99.5% AR for similar applications?

Depending on the specific application, alternatives like N-methylaniline or substituted anilines may be considered, but they may alter reaction outcomes. For analytical purposes, no direct substitute offers the exact properties of aniline, so compatibility should be verified before substitution.
