About Carbon tetrachloride, for HPLC

Carbon tetrachloride (CAS 56-23-5) is an HPLC grade solvent offered by Vaqora Chemicals in HPLC grade, specified at 99.5% purity. Formula CCl4, molecular weight 153.8 g/mol. Its systematic (IUPAC) name is tetrachloromethane. Alternative names: Perchloromethane and Tetrasol.

It is supplied as a liquid. Reported physical data include a melting point of −23 °C and a boiling point of 76-77 °C. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Danger”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

It is commonly used for HPLC mobile phase, LC-MS sample preparation, trace analysis and chromatography. It is used across academic and industrial research and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

We offer Carbon tetrachloride in 500 mL and 160 kg packs with a batch-specific COA, and ship to customers worldwide.
