1. What are the primary applications of Toluene Rectified SQ in a laboratory setting?
Toluene Rectified SQ is primarily used as an organic solvent for various applications, including chemical synthesis, extraction processes, and as a mobile phase in chromatography. It is also suitable for dissolving resins, paints, and other organic compounds in research.
2. What grade does “SQ” signify for this Toluene product?
“SQ” in Toluene Rectified SQ typically indicates a Standard Quality grade, meaning it meets specific purity standards and is suitable for general laboratory and research applications where consistent performance and purity are required.
3. How should Toluene Rectified SQ be safely stored to maintain its quality?
Toluene Rectified SQ should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat, and ignition sources. Containers must be tightly sealed to prevent evaporation and contamination. It is essential to store it separately from strong oxidizers and acids.
4. Is Toluene Rectified SQ suitable for sensitive analytical techniques?
While Toluene Rectified SQ offers good purity, for highly sensitive analytical techniques such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or gas chromatography (GC) where trace impurities can interfere, a higher, specialized grade like ‘HPLC Grade’ or ‘GC Grade’ toluene might be preferred. However, for many standard analytical applications, Rectified SQ is sufficient.
5. Are there any specific safety precautions to observe when handling Toluene?
Yes, Toluene is a flammable liquid with harmful vapors. Always handle it in a fume hood or well-ventilated area. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and a lab coat. Avoid inhalation, skin contact, and ingestion. Keep away from open flames and sparks.
