Product Overview
BakerDRY™ ultralow water ether is a premium-grade solvent engineered for applications requiring minimal moisture interference. With a guaranteed water content of less than 0.005%, this anhydrous ether ensures reliable performance in critical reactions where trace water could compromise results. The solvent undergoes rigorous purification processes, including molecular sieve treatment, to achieve its ultralow moisture specification. Its high volatility and low viscosity make it particularly effective for rapid extractions and separations while maintaining sample integrity. The product is packaged in airtight containers with moisture-resistant seals to preserve its anhydrous properties during storage and handling. Compatible with most organic synthesis protocols, this ether variant eliminates the need for additional drying steps, saving valuable lab time. Its consistent purity profile and batch-to-batch reliability make it a preferred choice for researchers demanding reproducible results in moisture-sensitive applications.
FAQs
1. What is the maximum allowable water content in BakerDRY™ ultralow water ether?
The product is certified to contain less than 0.005% water by Karl Fischer titration, ensuring ultralow moisture levels for critical applications.
2. Can this ether be used directly without additional drying?
Yes, the solvent is pre-dried to anhydrous specifications and requires no further drying steps before use in moisture-sensitive procedures.
3. What type of container closure is used to maintain the low water content?
The product is sealed with a moisture-resistant cap and packaged in airtight containers to prevent atmospheric moisture ingress.
4. How does this compare to standard anhydrous ether in terms of shelf life?
The ultralow water specification and specialized packaging extend the effective shelf life significantly compared to conventional anhydrous ether.
5. Is this solvent compatible with Grignard reagent preparations?
The ultralow moisture content makes it particularly suitable for Grignard reactions where water would otherwise react with the organomagnesium compounds.
