FAQs
1. What is the typical shelf life of DOUBLEHexane?
When stored correctly in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources and incompatible materials, DOUBLEHexane typically maintains its purity and efficacy for at least 2-3 years from the date of manufacture. Always check the label for the specific expiry date.
2. Is this Hexane suitable for spectroscopic analysis?
While this is an AR grade product with 95.0% purity, for highly sensitive spectroscopic applications requiring minimal interference, a higher purity grade such as HPLC or spectroscopic grade Hexane might be more appropriate. This grade is generally excellent for general analytical and extraction work.
3. How should DOUBLEHexane be safely stored?
Store DOUBLEHexane in its original tightly sealed container in a cool, well-ventilated, flame-proof area, away from direct sunlight, heat, sparks, and open flames. Ensure good ventilation to prevent vapor accumulation, and keep it separate from oxidizing agents.
4. Can this Hexane be used as a substitute for n-Hexane?
DOUBLEHexane is a fraction primarily composed of C6 hydrocarbons, including n-Hexane. For applications where a specific isomer of hexane is not critical, and a boiling range of 65-70°C is acceptable, it can often serve as a suitable alternative to pure n-Hexane, particularly for general solvent or extraction purposes.
5. What is the difference between ‘Fraction from Petroleum’ and ‘pure’ Hexane?
‘Fraction from Petroleum’ means the Hexane is obtained through the distillation of crude oil, resulting in a mixture primarily of C6 hydrocarbons with a specific boiling range. ‘Pure’ Hexane, like n-Hexane, usually refers to a single, isolated isomer with a higher purity specification, often synthesized or further refined to remove other isomers and impurities.
