n-Heptane 99% (Glass Distilled)

n-Heptane 99% is a high-purity form of n-Heptane that contains at least 99% of the straight-chain hydrocarbon compound n-Heptane. It is a clear, colourless, and flammable liquid with a chemical formula of C7H16 and a molecular weight of 100.21 g/mol.

n-Heptane 99% is commonly used as a reference standard in laboratory settings, particularly in the field of analytical chemistry. It is used to calibrate and test analytical instruments such as gas chromatographs, which are used to separate and identify the individual components of complex mixtures.

n-Heptane 99% is also used as a solvent in a variety of industrial applications, particularly in the production of rubber and other polymers. Its high purity and low levels of impurities make it particularly useful in applications where a high degree of chemical purity is required.

However, it is important to note that n-Heptane 99% is a flammable and volatile substance, and proper safety precautions should be taken when handling and storing it. It is also important to avoid exposure to the vapours of n-Heptane 99%, as they can be harmful if inhaled.

• Reference standard in laboratory settings, particularly in analytical chemistry.

• Calibration of gas chromatographs and other analytical instruments used to separate and identify the individual components of complex mixtures.

• Solvent in the production of rubber and other polymers, where a high degree of chemical purity is required.

• Used as a fuel in some high-performance engines and racing cars due to its high octane rating.

• n-Heptane 99% is also used as a standard component in gasoline, as it has a similar boiling point and volatility to other components of gasoline.

• Used as a laboratory reagent for organic synthesis and other chemical reactions.

• Cleaning agent in industrial settings, particularly for electronic components and machinery.
