Product Overview
Sodium hydroxide, 30% LR, is a high-purity liquid reagent designed for critical laboratory applications. This strong alkaline solution is widely used in titration procedures, pH adjustment, and organic synthesis due to its reliable reactivity and consistent concentration. The LR grade ensures minimal impurities, making it suitable for precise analytical work where accuracy is paramount. Its liquid form allows for easy handling and precise volume measurements, reducing the risk of contamination or dosage errors. The 30% concentration provides an optimal balance between reactivity and safety, minimizing the need for excessive dilution while maintaining effectiveness. This reagent is compatible with most standard lab glassware and equipment, though proper safety precautions should be followed due to its corrosive nature. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances like acids and organic materials. The solution is stable under recommended storage conditions, ensuring long-term usability without degradation. For researchers and lab professionals seeking a dependable sodium hydroxide solution, this LR-grade product delivers consistent performance across a wide range of chemical processes.
FAQs
1.
What is the shelf life of 30% Sodium Hydroxide LR solution?
The solution remains stable for 2-3 years when stored in a tightly sealed container under recommended conditions. 2.
Is this sodium hydroxide solution compatible with plastic containers?
It can degrade certain plastics over time, so HDPE or PTFE containers are recommended for long-term storage. 3.
What safety precautions should be taken when handling this solution?
Always wear chemical-resistant gloves, goggles, and a lab coat. Work in a fume hood due to potential fume release. 4.
Can this solution be diluted for lower concentration applications?
Yes, it can be carefully diluted with deionized water to achieve desired lower concentrations. 5.
What is the difference between LR grade and AR grade sodium hydroxide?
LR grade has slightly higher impurity tolerance than AR grade, making it suitable for general lab use rather than analytical applications.
