Hydranal™ Composite 5 – One-Component Karl Fischer Reagent (Methanol-Free) 2.5L

Overview:
Hydranal™ Composite 5 is a premium, one-component reagent designed for volumetric Karl Fischer titration. Formulated without methanol, it offers enhanced safety and compatibility, especially when analyzing samples sensitive to methanol. This reagent simplifies the titration process by combining all necessary reactants into a single solution, ensuring accurate and efficient water content determination.

Key Features:

• Methanol-Free Composition: Utilizes diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (DEGEE) as a solvent, reducing toxicity and improving safety.

• One-Component System: Combines iodine, sulfur dioxide, imidazole, and 2-methylimidazole, eliminating the need for separate solvents.

• High Titer Value: Provides a water equivalency of 4.5–5.5 mg H₂O/mL, ensuring precise measurements.

• Enhanced Stability: The inclusion of 2-methylimidazole prevents crystal formation, maintaining reagent consistency over time.

• Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide range of samples, including those that react with methanol.

Specifications:

• Titer (Water Equivalency): 4.5–5.5 mg H₂O/mL

• Density: 1.17 g/cm³ at 25°C

• Flash Point: 99°C
