Product Overview
Sulfuric acid, 96% Finyte® is a highly concentrated, reagent-grade acid designed for demanding laboratory applications. Known for its strong dehydrating and oxidizing properties, this high-purity sulfuric acid ensures consistent performance in analytical procedures, chemical synthesis, and titration processes. The Finyte® grade guarantees minimal impurities, making it suitable for precise experimental requirements where accuracy is critical. Its concentrated form (96%) provides a robust solution for reactions requiring a strong mineral acid, while its stability under standard lab conditions ensures reliable long-term storage. The acid is packaged in a secure, leak-proof container to maintain purity and safety during handling. Whether used as a catalyst, dehydrating agent, or in quantitative analysis, this sulfuric acid delivers reproducible results, adhering to strict quality control standards for research-grade chemicals.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of 96% sulfuric acid when stored properly?
When stored in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight, 96% sulfuric acid remains stable for up to 2 years without significant degradation.
2. Is this sulfuric acid compatible with glass labware?
Yes, but prolonged exposure may etch or corrode glass. Use borosilicate glass or PTFE-coated containers for long-term storage or reactions to minimize damage.
3. Can this acid be diluted for lower concentration applications?
Yes, it can be carefully diluted with deionized water to achieve lower concentrations. Always add acid to water slowly to prevent violent exothermic reactions.
4. What safety precautions are recommended when handling 96% sulfuric acid?
Wear acid-resistant gloves, goggles, and a lab coat. Work under a fume hood, and have a neutralizer like sodium bicarbonate readily available in case of spills.
5. Are there alternatives to Finyte® grade sulfuric acid for general lab use?
AR (Analytical Reagent) or LR (Laboratory Reagent) grades are common alternatives, though they may contain slightly higher impurity levels compared to Finyte®.
