Product Overview
Decane BAKER™ is a high-purity, straight-chain alkane solvent designed for demanding laboratory applications. As a non-polar, colorless liquid with a boiling point of 174°C, it offers excellent stability and low volatility, making it ideal for precise analytical and synthetic workflows. This reagent-grade decane undergoes rigorous purification to eliminate impurities, ensuring consistent performance in chromatography, extractions, and organic reactions. Its hydrophobic nature allows for effective separation of non-polar compounds, while its inert properties minimize unwanted side reactions. The solvent’s high flash point enhances safety during handling, and its compatibility with most organic solvents enables versatile use in multi-step protocols. Packaged in a 500 ml amber glass bottle, it is protected from light-induced degradation, preserving its purity over extended storage. Whether used as a mobile phase in GC or as a reaction medium, Decane BAKER™ delivers reliable results with minimal batch-to-batch variation, backed by stringent quality control standards.
FAQs
1. What is the boiling point of Decane BAKER™?
The boiling point of Decane BAKER™ is 174°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications.
2. Is this decane compatible with plastic containers?
Decane may degrade certain plastics over time. Use glass or HDPE containers for long-term storage.
