Dichloromethane for GC is a high-purity, anhydrous solvent widely used as a mobile phase, sample diluent, and extraction solvent in gas chromatography (GC) applications in pharmaceutical, chemical, and analytical laboratories.
🏭⚗️ Production
The solvent is produced by high-purity distillation under strictly controlled conditions to remove water and impurities. It is then packaged in sealed, moisture-resistant containers to preserve its chemical integrity and ensure consistent performance in regulated laboratory and industrial environments.
🔬 Properties
Dichloromethane is a clear, colorless liquid with a low boiling point and moderate density. It is highly volatile, has good solubility for many organic compounds, and is slightly soluble in water. The solvent is chemically stable under normal conditions but can react with strong bases and oxidizing agents. Its low polarity and volatility make it ideal for GC sample preparation, injection, and separation processes.
🧪 Applications
In pharmaceutical and analytical laboratories, dichloromethane is used as a diluent for GC standards and samples. It is applied in sample extraction, cleanup procedures, and preparative steps before injection into GC systems. Additionally, it is used to dissolve analytes that require a non-polar, volatile solvent to achieve accurate and reproducible chromatographic results.
⚠️ Safety
Dichloromethane is highly volatile, flammable, and can be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. It should be handled in a well-ventilated fume hood with gloves, protective eyewear, and lab coats. Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a cool, dry place, away from heat and strong oxidizers. Waste and empty containers must be disposed of according to laboratory hazardous waste regulations.
