Description
Vanillin is a high-quality reference substance supplied in ROTICHROM® GC grade for gas chromatography applications. Identified by CAS number 121-33-5 and empirical formula C₈H₈O₃, it has a molar mass of 152,15 g/mol and a density of 1,06 g/cm³. The compound shows a flash point in the range 159,8 to 160,8 °C and a boiling point of 285 °C, supporting reliable handling and method development in analytical workflows. This material is offered in a 1 g plastic pack, suited to calibration, identification and quantitative GC work where defined reference standards are required. Categories of use include chromatography and gas chromatography reference substances. Physical data from the manufacturer Carl ROTH align with routine laboratory practice for aromatic aldehydes of this type. Vanillin serves as a well-characterised standard for method validation, retention comparison and quality control in research and industrial analytical laboratories that depend on consistent GC-grade reagents.

Questions about Vanillin, ROTICHROM® GC, 1 g, plastic
What is this article?
Vanillin, ROTICHROM® GC, 1 g, plastic 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.
