Chloroform (67-66-3) is a colorless, volatile liquid with a sweet, ether-like odor, primarily used as a solvent in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for analytical separations and sample preparation. It is also employed in pharmaceutical and chemical synthesis due to its high purity and low UV absorbance. Industrially, it serves mainly as a feedstock for making the refrigerant HCFC-22 and fluoropolymers such as PTFE, and as an extraction solvent for fats, oils, resins and alkaloids. This product has a molecular formula of CHCl3 and a molecular weight of 119.38 g/mol. It is classified as a hazardous substance with the signal word "Danger" and must be stored at ambient conditions in a well-ventilated area, protected from light and moisture. Molekula supplies Chloroform 99.9% for HPLC from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
