Product Description
When precision matters in your lab, Petroleum Benzine ECD FID Suprasolv from Merck delivers unmatched purity for critical applications. This high-grade solvent is specifically formulated for electron capture detectors (ECD) and flame ionization detectors (FID), ensuring minimal interference in gas chromatography (GC) analysis. Whether you’re testing environmental samples, pesticide residues, or volatile organic compounds, this 1 LTR pack provides the consistency researchers demand.
What sets this benzine apart is its Suprasolv certification, guaranteeing ultra-low levels of impurities that could skew results. The narrow boiling range (typically 40-60°C) makes it ideal for extracting non-polar compounds without leaving behind unwanted residues. Students and educators will appreciate its reliability in teaching labs, while professional researchers trust it for reproducible data in compliance with international standards.
At eqipped, we understand that lab supplies aren’t just products—they’re tools that shape discoveries. That’s why we source only authentic Merck solvents, ensuring every batch meets the strict specifications your work requires. The 1 LTR packaging balances convenience with cost-efficiency, reducing the need for frequent reorders while maintaining freshness.

For environmental chemists, this benzine is particularly valuable in EPA Method 8081A for organochlorine pesticides and Method 8270D for semivolatile organic compounds. The ECD/FID dual-grade versatility means you can use one solvent for multiple detection techniques, streamlining your workflow. Its low sulfur and aromatic content further enhance baseline stability in chromatograms.
Safety note: While this is a high-purity solvent, petroleum benzine remains flammable and should be handled in a well-ventilated fume hood. Always use appropriate PPE and follow your institution’s chemical safety protocols. Store in a cool, dry place away from ignition sources.
FAQs
What makes Suprasolv grade benzine different from regular laboratory grade?
Suprasolv grade undergoes additional purification steps to remove trace impurities that could interfere with sensitive detectors like ECD and FID. This results in cleaner baselines and more accurate peak identification in GC analysis.
Can I use this benzine for both ECD and FID applications?
Yes, this product is specifically formulated as a dual-grade solvent for both electron capture and flame ionization detection, making it a versatile choice for labs running multiple GC methods.
What’s the typical shelf life for this product?
When stored properly in its original sealed container at room temperature, this benzine maintains its specifications for at least 24 months from the date of manufacture.
Is this the same as petroleum ether?
While often used interchangeably in some contexts, Petroleum Benzine ECD FID Suprasolv is a more tightly specified product with guaranteed purity levels for chromatographic applications, unlike generic petroleum ether.
How should I dispose of unused benzine?
Follow your local regulations for hazardous waste disposal. Most institutions require collection in approved solvent waste containers for professional hazardous waste handling.
