Product Name – n-Pentane, 99+%, Extra Dry, AcroSeal®
Quantity/Pack Size – 1LT, 100ML
Form – Liquid
Grade – Extra Dry (99%+ purity)
Application – Solvent extraction, chromatography, low-moisture reactions
Product Overview
This n-Pentane (99%+ purity) is an ultra-dry, high-performance solvent designed for moisture-sensitive laboratory applications. The extra-dry grade ensures minimal water content (<10 ppm), making it ideal for reactions requiring anhydrous conditions. Packaged in AcroSeal® containers, it maintains purity through a secure, resealable system that prevents atmospheric contamination. The solvent's low boiling point (36°C) and excellent volatility make it particularly effective for rapid evaporation processes. As an aliphatic hydrocarbon, it offers superior compatibility with non-polar compounds while maintaining chemical stability under standard lab conditions. The product undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee consistent batch-to-batch performance, with GC analysis confirming the 99%+ purity level. The AcroSeal® packaging features a tamper-evident design and is compatible with standard lab dispensing systems. This formulation meets international purity standards for research-grade solvents, with documented traceability for quality assurance purposes.
FAQs
1. What is the maximum moisture content in this extra-dry n-Pentane?
The moisture content is maintained below 10 ppm, verified through Karl Fischer titration.
2. Can this be used with standard laboratory glassware?
Yes, it’s compatible with borosilicate glass and most common lab plastics like PTFE and HDPE.
3. What’s the difference between this and regular n-Pentane?
This extra-dry version undergoes molecular sieve treatment to remove trace moisture and oxygen.
4. How should I store opened containers?
Keep tightly sealed in a cool, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources and oxidizing agents.
5. What’s the typical shelf life when unopened?
When stored properly, the product maintains specifications for 24 months from the date of manufacture.
