Product Overview
This 99.8% extra dry isopropanol is a high-purity solvent designed for demanding laboratory applications where moisture contamination could compromise results. The AcroSeal® packaging system ensures minimal exposure to atmospheric moisture, maintaining the solvent’s ultra-low water content (<0.005%) throughout storage and use. The product undergoes rigorous purification processes to eliminate trace impurities, making it particularly suitable for sensitive analytical techniques and molecular biology protocols. Its rapid evaporation rate and excellent solvency properties make it a preferred choice for critical cleaning applications in electronics and precision instrumentation. The solvent's consistent quality is verified through comprehensive quality control measures, with batch-specific certificates of analysis provided for each shipment. The extra dry grade is specifically formulated to prevent water-related interference in reactions, ensuring reproducible results in even the most sensitive applications.
FAQs
1. What makes this isopropanol “extra dry” compared to standard grades?
The extra dry designation indicates this isopropanol contains less than 0.005% water content, achieved through specialized drying processes and maintained via the AcroSeal® packaging system that prevents moisture ingress.
2. How does the AcroSeal® packaging maintain the product’s purity?
The AcroSeal® system uses a unique bottle and cap design with an integrated septum that creates a vapor-tight seal, preventing atmospheric moisture from entering while allowing controlled dispensing without exposing the entire contents.
3. Can this solvent be used for HPLC applications?
While this grade offers exceptional purity, for HPLC applications we recommend our dedicated HPLC-grade isopropanol which undergoes additional filtration processes to meet the specific requirements of chromatographic techniques.
4. What’s the typical shelf life when stored properly?
When stored in its original unopened AcroSeal® container at room temperature, this product maintains its specifications for at least 24 months from the date of manufacture.
5. How should I dispose of unused isopropanol?
Follow your institution’s chemical waste disposal protocols. This solvent should be collected in properly labeled hazardous waste containers and disposed of through authorized chemical waste management services.
