Solvents

(Showing 12 of 443)

A solvent dissolves a solute to form a solution, and in the lab the right grade makes the difference between a clean result and a rerun. Thermal Scientific carries laboratory solvents in ACS, HPLC, and reagent grades, including toluene, hexanes, heptanes, acetone, methanol, and isopropyl alcohol, from Pharmco-Aaper, Aqua Solutions, Ricca Chemical, and LabChem. Oil and gas labs rely on them for extraction and sample preparation, and our Vendor Managed Inventory program keeps regular solvents stocked.
