Product Overview
N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) 99.8% Extra Dry is a high-purity, anhydrous solvent designed for critical laboratory applications where moisture contamination must be minimized. This AcroSeal®-packaged DMF undergoes rigorous purification processes to achieve its exceptional 99.8% purity level, making it particularly suitable for reactions that are highly sensitive to water content. The Extra Dry grade ensures consistent performance in peptide synthesis, organic transformations, and other moisture-intolerant processes. Its low water content (typically <50 ppm) and sealed packaging prevent atmospheric moisture absorption during storage. The solvent's high boiling point (153°C) and excellent solvating power for both polar and nonpolar compounds make it a versatile choice for a wide range of chemical reactions. The AcroSeal® packaging system provides an additional layer of protection against contamination while allowing convenient dispensing. This grade of DMF is particularly valued in research settings where reproducibility and reaction purity are paramount concerns.
FAQs
1. What is the water content specification for this Extra Dry DMF?
The water content is typically maintained below 50 ppm (0.005%) in this Extra Dry grade of N,N-Dimethylformamide.
2. Can this DMF be used for peptide synthesis applications?
Yes, the high purity and low moisture content make this DMF particularly suitable for peptide coupling reactions where water can interfere with yield and purity.
3. How does the AcroSeal® packaging benefit this product?
The AcroSeal® system provides an airtight seal that prevents moisture absorption during storage and allows for clean, controlled dispensing without exposing the entire contents to air.
4. What is the typical shelf life of this Extra Dry DMF?
When stored properly in its original sealed container at room temperature, this product maintains its specifications for at least 24 months from the date of manufacture.
5. Are there any special storage requirements for this solvent?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and incompatible materials. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption.
