EDM 3 LLC Methanol ACS Grade 100% Chemistry Reagent is a basic alcohol that's frequently utilized in lab and industrial settings. The American Chemical Society (ACS) has established standards for high-purity reagents, such as ACS grade methanol, which are suitable for use in high-precision applications like analytical chemistry. Because of its guaranteed 100% purity, this grade is appropriate for demanding applications where impurities could taint the outcome.

Features:

• The Methanol is ACS Grade, ensuring it meets rigorous purity standards suitable for analytical and research applications.
• This reagent is 100% pure methanol, free from contaminants that could interfere with experimental results.
• Each batch of Methanol ACS Grade 100% undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistency in purity and performance.
• Available in both 1-gallon and 16 oz sizes, the  methanol caters to different laboratory needs, providing flexibility in usage and storage.

Applications:

• Analytical Chemistry:
  • Solvent: Methanol is frequently used as a solvent in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC).
  • Reagent: In chemical synthesis and various reactions, methanol acts as a key reagent due to its high purity and reactivity.
• Laboratory Use:
  • Sample Preparation: Used to prepare samples for analytical procedures.
  • Extraction Solvent: Employed in the extraction of compounds from various matrices.
• Industrial Applications:
  • Chemical Synthesis: A precursor for the production of formaldehyde, acetic acid, and various chemicals.
  • Fuel: Utilized in the manufacture of biodiesel and as a fuel additive.

Safety and Handling:

• Personal Protective Equipment ((PPE): Use gloves, safety goggles, and lab coats when handling methanol.
• Ventilation: Work in a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood to avoid inhalation.
• Storage: Store methanol in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition.

Important Note:

Because methanol ACS Grade is flammable and hazardous, it is regulated. It needs to be handled per the instructions on the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws.
