Product Overview
Naphthalene balls are a versatile laboratory reagent widely used in various scientific applications. These high-purity balls are composed of naphthalene, a white crystalline solid with a distinctive odor, known for its sublimation properties. The laboratory-grade quality ensures minimal impurities, making it suitable for precise experiments and research. Naphthalene balls are commonly employed in organic synthesis, as a moth repellent, and in certain chemical reactions due to their unique structure. The product is packaged in a convenient 500 gm pack, providing an adequate quantity for multiple uses. Its stability under standard lab conditions makes it a reliable choice for researchers and educators. Always handle with care, following standard lab safety protocols, as naphthalene can be flammable and should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
FAQs
