Di Chloromethane for UV
Dichloromethane for UV is a high-purity, low-absorbance solvent designed for ultraviolet (UV) and spectrophotometric applications in pharmaceutical and analytical laboratories, providing clear optical measurements for non-polar and moderately polar compounds.
🏭⚗️ Production
It is purified through fractional distillation and filtration to remove moisture, peroxides, and UV-absorbing impurities, then packaged under inert conditions to maintain chemical stability and optical clarity.
🔬 Properties
Dichloromethane is a clear, colorless, volatile liquid with a slightly sweet odor, non-polar to moderately polar, with a boiling point of ~39.6 °C and a density of ~1.33 g/mL. It shows minimal UV absorbance above 235 nm, making it suitable for UV–Vis spectroscopy.
🧪 Applications
Used as a solvent for calibration standards, reference solutions, and assay samples, it dissolves non-polar and moderately polar APIs and excipients, and is suitable for extraction, purification, dissolution studies, and chromatographic separations in pharmaceutical analysis.
⚠️ Safety
Dichloromethane is harmful if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin and may affect the CNS, liver, and kidneys. Handle in a fume hood with gloves, goggles, and protective clothing, store in a cool, ventilated area, and dispose of waste according to hazardous laboratory protocols.
