Product Overview
Triethyl borate (97% purity) is a colorless, moisture-sensitive liquid widely used as a boron source in organic synthesis and as a catalyst in esterification reactions. Its high reactivity with water makes it essential for anhydrous conditions, ensuring reliable results in sensitive applications. The AcroSeal® packaging guarantees minimal exposure to moisture, preserving the reagent’s integrity during storage and handling. This grade is particularly valued for its consistent performance in laboratory settings where precision and purity are critical. The liquid form allows for easy dispensing and integration into reaction mixtures, while the sealed packaging reduces contamination risks. Whether used in small-scale experiments or larger preparative work, this triethyl borate variant maintains stability and effectiveness, making it a staple in advanced chemical processes.
FAQs
1. Is triethyl borate compatible with glassware?
Yes, it can be stored and handled in standard borosilicate glassware, but ensure the glass is dry to prevent hydrolysis.
2. What is the shelf life of this product?
When stored unopened in its original AcroSeal® packaging, it remains stable for up to 2 years under cool, dry conditions.
3. Can it replace trimethyl borate in reactions?
While similar, triethyl borate has a higher boiling point and may require adjusted reaction conditions compared to trimethyl borate.
4. How should spills be handled?
Absorb with inert material (e.g., sand) and neutralize with dilute acid before disposal, following lab safety protocols.
5. Is this product sourced from India?
Check the batch label for origin details, as sourcing may vary; all products meet international purity standards.
