About 1,1,4,4-Tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene, ≥99%

1,1,4,4-Tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene is a biological stain carrying the CAS registry number 1450-63-1, specified at ≥99% purity. Its molecular formula is C28H22 and its molecular weight is 358.5 g/mol. Systematically, it is named 1,4,4-triphenylbuta-1,3-dienylbenzene. It is also known as TPB or Tetraphenylbutadiene.

The material typically appears as white to off-white powder or solid or crystals. Key physical data: a melting point of 207-209 °C. Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Warning”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

Key uses span histology and cytology staining, microscopy, clinical laboratories and dyes and pigments manufacture. It is used across academic and industrial research, diagnostics and biotechnology and textiles and dyeing.

Standard pack sizes are 5 g, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
