Description
Potassium hydroxide solution in ethanol 2M is a Reag. Ph. Eur. reagent prepared according to Chapter 4.1.1 (1070301), identified by CAS number 1310-58-3 and empirical formula KOH. The molar mass is 56,11 g/mol. This ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution is supplied in a 100 ml pack for use among reagents and volumetric standard solutions of pharmacopoeia quality, specifically the Reagents 4.1.1 series. Density is approximately 0,9 g/cm³, the flash point is 19 °C and the boiling point is approximately 78 °C, consistent with an ethanol-based solution. Laboratories applying European Pharmacopoeia methods that call for potassium hydroxide solution in ethanol 2M can use this preparation as the Chapter 4.1.1 reagent 1070301. The solution is offered from manufacturer Carl ROTH as Potassium hydroxide sol. in ethanol 2M, Reag. Ph. Eur., Chapter 4.1.1, 1070301. Potassium hydroxide (KOH) in ethanol at 2M concentration supports pharmacopoeial analytical work where this named reagent is specified. The 100 ml unit quantity suits bench-scale reagent handling in chemical and pharmaceutical quality-control settings that follow Ph. Eur. reagent monographs.

Questions about Potassium hydroxide solution in ethanol 2M, Reag. Ph. Eur.
What is this article?
Potassium hydroxide solution in ethanol 2M, Reag. Ph. Eur. is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
An analytical-grade solvent, often marked p.a., has impurity limits tight enough for classical analysis and for preparing reagents. It is not automatically low enough in UV absorbance for HPLC, and it is not dry enough for a water-sensitive reaction. The grade is the purchase.
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 Analytical grade solvents (p.a.). The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis), Technical & synthesis grade solvents and Green & alternative solvents.
