Product Overview
Decane, 99% anhydrous, is a high-purity aliphatic hydrocarbon supplied in AcroSeal® packaging to ensure minimal moisture exposure and long-term stability. This solvent-grade decane is rigorously purified to meet stringent lab requirements, offering consistent performance in applications demanding low-water content. Its linear C10 structure provides predictable physical properties, including a boiling point of 174°C and low polarity, making it suitable for use as a non-reactive solvent or reference standard. The AcroSeal® technology preserves purity by preventing atmospheric contamination, while the anhydrous specification guarantees water content below 0.005%, critical for moisture-sensitive reactions. Compatible with most organic solvents, this decane variant is ideal for chromatographic calibration, extraction processes, or as a diluent in organic synthesis. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources to maintain integrity.
FAQs
1. What is the water content in this anhydrous decane?
The anhydrous grade ensures water content is below 0.005%, verified through Karl Fischer titration.
2. Can this decane be used for GC-MS calibration?
Yes, its 99% purity and low impurity profile make it suitable for GC-MS calibration as a hydrocarbon standard.
3. How does AcroSeal® packaging differ from regular bottles?
AcroSeal® uses a hermetic seal with a PTFE-lined cap to block moisture and air, extending shelf life compared to standard packaging.
4. Is this decane compatible with plastic labware?
It may soften certain plastics like polystyrene; use glass or HDPE containers for long-term storage.
5. What’s the shelf life of unopened anhydrous decane?
When stored under recommended conditions, unopened AcroSeal® bottles retain purity for up to 24 months.
