Product Description
When precision matters in your lab experiments, n-Dodecane, 99%, anhydrous from Thermofisher delivers consistent results. This high-purity alkane is a staple in analytical chemistry, serving as a reliable solvent for chromatography, a calibration standard for GC-MS, and a non-polar medium for organic synthesis. The AcroSeal® packaging ensures minimal moisture contamination, preserving the anhydrous quality critical for sensitive applications.
Researchers and students alike trust this grade for its low impurity profile, making it ideal for trace analysis and solvent extraction protocols. Whether you’re working on environmental testing, petroleum analysis, or pharmaceutical research, this n-Dodecane meets the stringent requirements of modern laboratories. The 1L and 100mL pack sizes offer flexibility for both bulk users and small-scale experiments.
For labs demanding purity, eqipped brings you Thermofisher’s n-Dodecane with verified specifications and sealed integrity.
In educational settings, this solvent helps demonstrate principles of hydrophobicity and solvent polarity. Its high boiling point (216°C) makes it suitable for elevated temperature applications where lower alkanes might evaporate. The anhydrous nature eliminates water interference in reactions, a common challenge in organic chemistry labs.
When sourcing lab solvents, the supplier’s reliability matters as much as the product quality. eqipped ensures you receive genuine Thermofisher products with proper documentation, so you can focus on your research without supply chain worries. The AcroSeal® technology provides an additional layer of protection against atmospheric moisture during storage and handling.
FAQs
What is the purity level of this n-Dodecane?
This product is 99% pure, with the anhydrous specification indicating water content below 0.005%. The AcroSeal® packaging maintains this purity throughout storage.
Can I use this for GC-MS calibration?
Absolutely. The high purity and documented specifications make it suitable as a calibration standard for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry applications.
What’s the difference between anhydrous and regular n-Dodecane?
Anhydrous means it contains minimal water (typically <50ppm), crucial for moisture-sensitive reactions. Regular grades may contain higher water content that could interfere with certain analyses.
How should I store this chemical?
Store in a cool, dry place with the container tightly sealed. The AcroSeal® cap provides excellent moisture protection, but always keep it closed when not in use.
Is this suitable for undergraduate chemistry labs?
Yes, it’s commonly used in educational settings for demonstrating solvent properties and chromatography techniques. The 100mL size is particularly convenient for classroom use.
