FAQs
What is Trimethyl Chlorosilane used for?
TMCS is primarily used as a derivatization reagent in GC-MS to increase the volatility of polar compounds, making them easier to analyze.
Is TMCS safe to handle?
TMCS is corrosive and reacts violently with water. Always wear gloves, goggles, and a lab coat when handling it. Work in a fume hood to avoid inhalation.
What is the shelf life of TMCS?
When stored properly in a tightly sealed container, TMCS has a shelf life of 12–24 months. Avoid exposure to moisture to prevent degradation.
Can I buy TMCS in smaller quantities?
Yes, eqipped offers TMCS in 250 ml bottles for small-scale experiments, along with 1000 ml options for larger projects.
