Description
Glycerol Formal is a SOLVAGREEN® acetal solvent with a minimum purity of 99 %, intended for synthesis. It is defined by the empirical formula 2(C₄H₈O₃) and a molar mass of 104,11 g/mol. Key physical properties include a density of 1,219 g/cm³, a flash point of 99 °C and a boiling point of 194 °C, supporting controlled handling in synthetic workflows. The product is Positioned among green chemicals and acetals, this grade suits laboratories that need a high-purity performance solvent with clearly stated thermal and density data. Glycerol formal from manufacturer Carl ROTH is appropriate for bench-scale preparation, process development and other synthesis-oriented applications where an acetal medium is specified. The combination of purity, boiling point and flash point helps method documentation and solvent selection. is practical for routine laboratory use without excess open volume.
This article belongs on Green & alternative solvents, in Solvents.

Questions about Glycerol Formal, SOLVAGREEN® min. 99 %, for synthesis, 100 ml, glass
What is this article?
Glycerol Formal, SOLVAGREEN® min. 99 %, for synthesis, 100 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Green & alternative solvents, inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
A green or alternative solvent is chosen to replace a more hazardous one, often with a higher boiling point or a different polarity. It is not automatically equivalent in a method. The replacement has to dissolve the same compounds and leave the same impurities behind, which is a test, not a label.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Solvents. The sub-category is Green & alternative solvents. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis) and Technical & synthesis grade solvents.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
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.
