Product Overview
Dimethylformamide (DMF) anhydrous solvent is a high-purity, polar aprotic solvent designed for critical laboratory applications where moisture content must be minimized. With a guaranteed water content of ≤50 ppm, this anhydrous-grade DMF ensures optimal performance in moisture-sensitive reactions, including peptide synthesis, polymerization, and organometallic chemistry. Its low volatility and high solvency power make it ideal for dissolving a wide range of organic and inorganic compounds without compromising reaction integrity. The solvent undergoes rigorous purification processes to eliminate trace impurities, ensuring consistent results in analytical techniques like HPLC, GC, and spectroscopy. Its stability under varying temperature conditions further enhances its reliability in long-duration experiments. The 250 ml pack size provides a convenient volume for both small-scale and bulk applications, reducing the need for frequent replenishment while maintaining freshness. Compatible with most laboratory glassware and equipment, this DMF variant is a staple in research and industrial labs demanding precision and reproducibility.
FAQs
1. What is the maximum allowable water content in this DMF solvent?
The solvent is certified to contain ≤50 ppm (parts per million) of water, ensuring anhydrous conditions for sensitive applications.
2. Can this DMF be used for high-temperature reactions?
Yes, it remains stable at elevated temperatures, but always verify compatibility with your specific reaction conditions and reagents.
3. How should this anhydrous DMF be stored to maintain its purity?
Store in a tightly sealed container under inert gas (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and direct sunlight.
4. Is this DMF compatible with standard laboratory glassware?
It is compatible with most borosilicate glass and PTFE-lined containers, but avoid prolonged contact with plastics or rubber seals.
5. What alternatives exist if anhydrous DMF is unavailable?
For less moisture-sensitive applications, reagent-grade DMF (with higher water content) or DMSO may be considered, though performance may vary.
