Description
D-(+)-Limonene is a cyclic monoterpene with empirical formula C₁₀H₁₆, molar mass 136,24 g/mol and CAS number 5989-27-5 (EG nr. 227-813-5). The liquid shows a density of 0,84 g/cm³, a flash point of 51 °C and a boiling range of 175 to 178 °C, giving a well-defined profile for organic synthesis, solvent applications and natural-product research. Offered as 500 ml in glass, this grade from manufacturer Carl ROTH supports laboratory work requiring a chiral limonene building block, citrus-related reference standard or non-polar process solvent. Physical data assist in reaction planning, distillation set-up and compatibility assessment with common laboratory glassware and equipment. The compound is widely used in fragrance-related studies, polymer and resin investigations, and as a renewable-chemistry feedstock in academic and industrial R&D settings. Clear identity data and pack format simplify cataloguing and dispensing. UN number 2052 applies for transport classification. The 500 ml glass presentation balances convenient bench-scale volume with secure containment for routine chemical handling.

Questions about D-(+)-Limonene, 500 ml, glass
What is this article?
D-(+)-Limonene, 500 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Essential oils & fragrances, inside Natural products & essential oils, in Lab chemicals.
An essential oil is the volatile fraction distilled or pressed from a named plant part. The species, the chemotype and a stated component, when the seller gives one, are the specification. A fragrance compound is a formulated mixture. The two should not be treated as the same bottle.
A natural product is a molecule extracted from a plant, an animal or a microorganism, or a mixture of those molecules. An essential oil is the volatile fraction. The useful specification is the source species, the plant part and, where it exists, the stated content of a marker compound. Two oils with the same common name are not the same article. Marker compounds are identified on PubChem and named by IUPAC.
