1,4-Dioxane CAS 123-91-1

1,4-Dioxane, identifiable by CAS 123-91-1, functions as a cyclic ether solvent used primarily as a stabilizer for chlorinated solvents like 1,1,1-trichloroethane and as a processing medium in pharmaceutical extraction. Chemically defined as Diethylene Ether or p-Dioxane , this colorless, flammable liquid serves as a versatile solvent for cellulose acetate, resins, and waxes due to its high solubility parameters. The substance, often referred to as Dioxane in laboratory protocols, acts as a reaction medium in organic synthesis and a wetting agent in textile processing. We facilitate bulk supply of this organic solvent with competitive factory pricing, capable of meeting customized specifications for water content and peroxide levels, backed by comprehensive MSDS, TDS, COA documentation.
