Product Overview

This 99%+ extra dry butanol is a high-purity solvent designed for critical laboratory applications where moisture contamination must be minimized. The AcroSeal® packaging ensures long-term stability by preventing atmospheric moisture absorption, making it ideal for sensitive chemical processes. With a boiling point of 117°C and excellent solvency properties, it serves as an effective medium for organic synthesis, chromatography, and extraction procedures. The extra dry grade guarantees water content below 50 ppm, providing consistent results in analytical and preparative workflows. Its low UV absorbance and minimal impurity profile make it particularly suitable for spectroscopic applications. The solvent’s balanced polarity allows for selective solubility in both polar and non-polar compounds, offering versatility across different experimental setups. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to maintain the specified purity level, ensuring reliable performance in your laboratory protocols.

FAQs

1. What makes this butanol “extra dry” compared to regular grades?

Extra dry butanol undergoes specialized drying processes to reduce water content below 50 ppm, unlike standard grades which typically contain 100-500 ppm water. This makes it suitable for moisture-sensitive reactions where even trace water can affect outcomes.

2. Can this butanol be used with plastic containers for storage?

While butanol is compatible with many plastics, we recommend using glass containers for long-term storage to prevent potential leaching or container degradation. The original AcroSeal® packaging is designed for optimal chemical stability.

3. What’s the typical shelf life of this product when unopened?

When stored properly in its original sealed packaging at room temperature, this extra dry butanol maintains its specifications for at least 24 months from the date of manufacture.

4. How does the AcroSeal® packaging benefit this solvent?

The AcroSeal® technology creates a moisture barrier that prevents atmospheric water vapor from entering the container, preserving the extra dry quality throughout the product’s shelf life.

5. Are there any special disposal requirements for this chemical?

As with all laboratory solvents, this butanol should be disposed of according to local chemical waste regulations. It should not be poured down drains or mixed with other waste streams without proper treatment.
