  • GC Solvents

    GC solvents are high-purity liquids — methanol, acetone, hexane, dichloromethane, acetonitrile and others — specified for gas chromatography sample preparation, dilution and extraction. Buyers in environmental, food-safety, petrochemical and pharmaceutical laboratories select them by low GC-detectable residue, particularly for sensitive detectors such as FID, ECD and MS, because co-eluting volatile impurities create ghost peaks and raise detection limits.

    Grades centre on GC and GC-headspace grade, with pesticide-residue and trace-analysis variants for the most demanding ECD/MS work. Spec sheets characteristically report assay by GC, GC purity expressed against a defined detector, residue after evaporation, water content, and impurity panels relevant to trace analysis (for example individual and total residue limits for pesticide-residue grades). Several GC solvents are also referenced against ASTM specifications for the parent commodity. CAS and HS details are provided on documentation rather than assumed here.

    Forms include amber 1 L, 2.5 L and 4 L bottles in protective cases, with selected solvents in 200 L drums for higher-volume laboratories; most GC solvents are flammable or carry health classifications and are packed accordingly.

    For EU import, REACH registration or an Only Representative pathway is coordinated where required, with CLP/GHS labelling and SDS supplied; flammable and classified grades are assigned ADR/IMDG classes and UN numbers. SABER/SASO is coordinated for Saudi Arabia.

    Himalay's verified manufacturer and exporter partners supply GC solvents with CoA per batch (with lot-specific GC purity data), SDS, REACH/CLP compliance coordinated for EU, GHS labelling, and SABER for Saudi Arabia handled as part of the standard order flow.
