Product Overview

Cyclohexane 99.9% GC (CAS No. 110-82-7) is a volatile hydrocarbon solvent intended for gas-chromatographic sample preparation and control of chromatographically detectable background. Its non-polar solvating properties support extraction and dilution of compatible volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds.

The GC grade is intended for preparation of samples, solvent blanks and non-certified working mixtures used in gas-chromatographic analysis.

Typical Applications

• Dilution and preparation of compatible samples for gas chromatography.
• Extraction of non-polar volatile and semi-volatile analytes.
• Preparation of GC and GC–MS solvent blanks.
• Preparation of non-certified working mixtures containing compatible organic analytes.
• Evaluation of solvent-related chromatographic interference.
• Gas-chromatographic method development where cyclohexane is an appropriate solvent or analyte.

Common Synonyms

• Hexamethylene
• Hexahydrobenzene
• Hexanaphthene
• Benzene Hexahydride
• Benzene, Hexahydro-
• Cyclohexane

Storage Conditions

Keep the container tightly closed and protect from excessive heat, evaporation, moisture and chromatographic contamination. Minimise opening and use clean dispensing equipment to preserve volatile composition and solvent-blank cleanliness.
