FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of tert-AMYL ALCOHOL 99.5% AR?
When stored in a tightly sealed container away from direct sunlight and moisture, this product typically retains its specifications for 24 months from the date of manufacture.
2. Can this solvent be used with plastic containers?
tert-AMYL ALCOHOL may degrade certain plastics over time. Use glass or HDPE containers for long-term storage to prevent leaching or container failure.
3. How does this compare to tert-BUTYL ALCOHOL?
While both are branched alcohols, tert-AMYL ALCOHOL has a higher boiling point (102°C vs 82°C) and different solubility characteristics, making it more suitable for specific extraction processes.
4. What precautions should be taken during handling?
Use in a well-ventilated area with proper PPE (gloves, goggles). Avoid inhalation and skin contact as it may cause irritation. Keep away from ignition sources.
5. Is this product sourced from Indian manufacturers?
Our tert-AMYL ALCOHOL 99.5% AR is procured from ISO-certified suppliers, with batches tested for consistency against international standards.
