Description
Terephthalic acid is an aromatic dicarboxylic acid supplied at a minimum purity of 95 % for laboratory chemical use. It is identified by CAS number 100-21-0, has the empirical formula C₈H₆O₄, and a molar mass of 166,13 g/mol. The manufacturer reports a density of 1,58 g/cm³, supporting formulation calculations and solid-handling assessments. Terephthalic acid from manufacturer Carl ROTH is a standard building-block aromatic acid used where a para-substituted benzene dicarboxylic structure is needed as starting material or reference compound. Clear CAS, formula, molar mass, and density data help laboratories document identity and plan stoichiometric work. is practical for recurring synthesis, teaching laboratories, and process-development trials without moving to industrial bulk packaging. Only the stated purity and physicochemical parameters from the manufacturer description are presented for transparent specification and procurement.

Questions about Terephthalic acid, min. 95 %, 1 kg
What is this article?
Terephthalic acid, min. 95 %, 1 kg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
