Description
Glycerol, min. 99%, Ph.Eur., USP, synthetic, is a pharmacopoeia-aligned polyol for laboratory and formulation use. It is defined by CAS number 56-81-5 and EG nr. 200-289-5, the empirical formula C₃H₈O₃, and a molar mass of 92,09 g/mol. Reported physical properties include a density of 1,261 g/cm³, a boiling point of 290 °C, and a flash point of 199 °C, giving users concrete data for handling, storage planning, and process calculations. The reagent is As a synthetic glycerol meeting min. 99% with Ph.Eur. and USP references from manufacturer Carl ROTH, it suits laboratories that specify dual pharmacopoeial alignment alongside a clear assay minimum. Typical contexts include raw-material roles in disinfection-related and hygiene-oriented preparations where documented glycerol quality is required. Specification sheets can cite the assay, registry numbers, formula, and thermal and density values directly from the product definition. The litre plastic pack balances working volume with manageable handling for routine laboratory supply.

Questions about Glycerol, min. 99 %, Ph.Eur., USP, synthetic, 100 ml, plastic
What is this article?
Glycerol, min. 99 %, Ph.Eur., USP, synthetic, 100 ml, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Polymers, PEGs & silicones, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Lab chemicals.
A polymer, a PEG or a silicone is sold by molecular weight, or by viscosity, as much as by name. PEG 400 and PEG 4000 are different liquids and solids. A silicone oil's viscosity grades are the product range. The average molecular weight is the specification.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents. The sub-category is Polymers, PEGs & silicones. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents and Click chemistry, bioconjugation & synthesis reagents.
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.
