Product Description

Acetone AR Grade is a high-purity solvent supplied by Alkemist KSA, specifically manufactured and tested for analytical and laboratory applications. As a leading wholesale dealer, we provide this Analytical Reagent (AR) grade acetone, which meets stringent purity standards to ensure reliable and reproducible results in sensitive laboratory procedures, including chromatography and spectroscopy.

Laboratory & Industrial Applications

  • Analytical Laboratories: Used for cleaning laboratory glassware, as a solvent for sample preparation, and in various analytical tests.
  • Chromatography: A common solvent for High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Gas Chromatography (GC) due to its high purity and miscibility.
  • Pharmaceuticals: Employed as a solvent in the manufacturing and purification of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients.
  • Precision Cleaning: Ideal for cleaning delicate optical and electronic components where minimal residue is critical.

Safety & Handling Information

DANGER: HIGHLY FLAMMABLE & IRRITANT. Acetone is extremely flammable; keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Vapors can cause drowsiness and dizziness. It can cause serious eye irritation. Always use in a fume hood or well-ventilated area with proper personal protective equipment (PPE). Request the MSDS for full safety details.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

AR (Analytical Reagent) Grade acetone has a much higher purity (typically ≥99.8%) and lower levels of impurities like water and non-volatile residue compared to industrial grade. This high purity is essential for laboratory work to ensure that the solvent itself does not interfere with the results of an analysis.

In many analytical techniques, such as Karl Fischer titration or certain types of chromatography, the presence of water can interfere with the reaction or separation process, leading to inaccurate results. A low water content ensures the solvent is suitable for these moisture-sensitive applications.

Yes, you can, and it will be a very effective cleaner. However, due to its higher purity and cost, it is typically reserved for applications where that level of purity is required, such as cleaning sensitive laboratory equipment or for use in analytical procedures.

The primary hazards (flammability, irritation) are the same for both grades as they are both highly concentrated acetone. The safety precautions for handling, storage, and personal protective equipment (PPE) are identical.

This specification guarantees that when the acetone evaporates, it leaves behind a negligible amount of non-volatile material (typically measured in parts per million). This is critical for applications like cleaning optics or preparing samples for analysis, where any residue could contaminate the sample or obscure results.
