Petroleum Spirit, 60–80 °C, AnalaR NORMAPUR® is a high-purity solvent with 99.0% or higher purity, used in a wide range of organic chemistry, analytical, and industrial applications. This volatile liquid is primarily used as a solvent in extraction, purification, and chemical synthesis. It is especially effective in chromatography, spectroscopy, and sample preparation for the identification and analysis of various compounds.
Petroleum spirit (also known as gasoline or petroleum ether) is often used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and environmental industries for solvent extraction and sample dissolution in laboratory procedures. With its low boiling range (60–80°C) and high purity, it provides optimal performance in critical applications where minimal contamination is crucial.
Key Features:
-
High Purity:
- 99.0% or higher purity, ensuring minimal impurities for reliable and accurate results in solvent extraction and analytical chemistry.
-
Low Flash Point:
- With a flash point of -40°C, it is highly flammable and should be handled with care in well-ventilated areas and away from sources of ignition.
-
Versatile Applications:
- Ideal for solvent extraction, chromatography, cleaning, degreasing, and as a solvent in chemical reactions in laboratories and industrial settings.
-
Minimal Impurities:
- Low water content (≤100 ppm), low sulphur compounds, and minimal heavy metals make this product suitable for high-precision and sensitive applications.
-
Compliant with Industry Standards:
- Conforms to ACS, Ph.Eur., and REACH standards, ensuring it meets regulatory and quality control requirements for laboratory chemicals.
Applications:
- Organic Synthesis: Used in the synthesis of organic compounds, such as acetates, esters, and other chemical intermediates.
- Solvent Extraction: Ideal for the extraction of natural products, pharmaceuticals, and biological compounds.
- Chromatography: Used in HPLC, GC, and TLC applications as a mobile phase solvent.
- Analytical Chemistry: Used in sample preparation, solvent purification, and chemical analysis of compounds.
- Pharmaceutical Industry: Employed for extraction and solvent dissolution of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other drug substances.
Storage:
- Store at ambient temperature in a cool, dry place to maintain stability and avoid degradation of the solvent.
