Description
2-Butanone ROTIPURAN® is a high-purity analytical-grade ketone solvent with a minimum assay of 99,5 % p.a., CAS number 78-93-3 and empirical formula C₄H₈O. Its molar mass is 72,11 g/mol and the density is 0,81 g/cm³, with a flash point of −8 °C and a boiling range of 79 to 80 °C. The ROTIPURAN® p.a. quality from manufacturer Carl ROTH supports demanding wet-chemistry and instrumental applications, including work linked to disinfection research and raw-material evaluation. Physical constants such as density and boiling point facilitate method transfer and process control. The product is identified under EG nr. 201-159-0 and UN number 1193 for transport classification. Laboratories use 2-butanone as a versatile polar aprotic medium for cleaning, dissolving resins and preparing standards. Consistent purity and defined specifications help maintain reproducible results across routine and research workflows.

Questions about 2-Butanone ROTIPURAN®, min. 99,5 %, p.a., 1 l, glass
What is this article?
2-Butanone ROTIPURAN®, min. 99,5 %, p.a., 1 l, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Cleaning & disinfection (other), inside Cleaning & disinfection, in Lab safety equipment.
This shelf holds cleaning and disinfection articles that are not a plain detergent, a wipe or a named disinfectant: combined products and odd formats. Read the claim. A product that only cleans should not be described as a disinfectant.
Cleaning removes soil. Disinfection kills or inactivates microbes that remain. They are not the same step, and a disinfectant on top of dirt does less than the label claims. The spectrum, the contact time and the surface decide the product. A wipe is the mechanical half of the same job. Chemical classification is on ECHA. Workplace practice is EU-OSHA on dangerous substances. Biosafety context is the WHO biosafety topic.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Cleaning & disinfection. The sub-category is Cleaning & disinfection (other). The catalogue is Lab safety equipment.
Shelves beside this one are Wipes, tissues & paper towels, Laboratory cleaners & detergents and Disinfectants & biocides.
What should I check before I order?
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
