tert-Butanol HPLC grade is a high-purity branched-chain alcohol (CAS 75-65-0) used as a solvent in analytical chromatography, particularly HPLC, due to its low UV absorbance and compatibility with aqueous mobile phases. It also serves as a reagent in organic synthesis and a denaturant for ethanol. Catalogue details: Molecular formula (CH3)3COH, molecular weight 74.12 g/mol, stored at ambient conditions. Hazard classification includes a Danger signal word for flammability, eye irritation, harm if inhaled, respiratory irritation and drowsiness or dizziness. Molekula supplies tert-Butanol HPLC grade from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
