Product Overview
Methylcyclohexane Reference Standard is a high-purity solvent specifically designed for analytical applications where precision and reliability are critical. This reference-grade chemical is meticulously purified to meet stringent quality standards, ensuring consistent performance in chromatography, calibration, and other analytical techniques. Its low impurity profile minimizes interference, making it ideal for use as a reference material in quantitative analysis. The compound’s stable chemical structure and high boiling point (100-102°C) provide excellent reproducibility in laboratory settings. As a non-polar solvent, it is particularly effective in gas chromatography (GC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) applications. The reference standard is supplied in a sealed, amber glass bottle to prevent degradation from light exposure, preserving its integrity over extended storage periods. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control testing, including GC-MS analysis, to verify purity and confirm the absence of contaminants. This ensures researchers and analysts can rely on accurate, repeatable results in their experiments. The product is compatible with most standard laboratory equipment and can be used directly without further purification.
FAQs
1. What is the purity level of this Methylcyclohexane Reference Standard?
This reference standard is certified to have a minimum purity of 99.5%, verified through gas chromatography and mass spectrometry analysis.
2. Can this product be used for GC-MS calibration?
Yes, it is specifically suitable for GC-MS calibration due to its high purity and consistent composition, which ensures reliable instrument performance.
3. How should this reference standard be stored for long-term use?
Store the sealed bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. The amber glass packaging helps protect it from light-induced degradation.
4. Is this Methylcyclohexane compatible with plastic labware?
While it is generally safe with most lab-grade plastics, prolonged exposure may cause swelling or degradation in some polymers. Use glass or PTFE-lined containers for long-term storage.
5. Are there any known impurities in this reference standard?
The product undergoes strict quality control to minimize impurities, with typical contaminants (if any) limited to trace levels below 0.5%, as documented in the certificate of analysis.
