Petroleum Ether (99% w/w), ACS Grade
Manufacturer: VWR International
Description
The ACS (American Chemical Society) grade designation with ≥99.0% GC purity represents the highest quality standards for petroleum ether, ensuring consistent performance across organic synthesis and analytical applications. The 35-60°C boiling range enables precise control of evaporation rates in laboratory procedures, while the low water content (≤0.020%) and minimal residue (≤0.001%) ensure compatibility with sensitive analytical applications. The formulation comprises C5 and C6 isomers including n-pentane and 2-methyl pentane, delivering consistent solvent properties.
