Chloroform
Chloroform (Trichloromethane) is a clear, colorless, volatile liquid with a sweet, pleasant odor. It is a widely used organic solvent with excellent solvency for many substances. Historically employed as an anesthetic, chloroform is now primarily used in laboratories and industry for extraction, degreasing, and chemical synthesis. It has moderate volatility and is heavier than air, requiring careful handling to avoid inhalation hazards. Its chemical stability and ability to dissolve fats, alkaloids, and other substances make it valuable in pharmaceutical, chemical, and industrial processes.
Deionized Water
Deionized Water (DI Water), also known as demineralized water, is highly purified water that has had almost all of its mineral ions (such as sodium, calcium, iron, copper, chloride, and sulfate) removed through ion exchange, reverse osmosis, or other purification methods. It is a clear, colorless, odorless liquid with extremely low electrical conductivity and is considered chemically pure. Deionized water is used in applications where water purity is critical, including pharmaceuticals, electronics, cosmetics, laboratory use, and various industrial processes. Its lack of minerals makes it highly reactive with contaminants, which makes it both useful and sensitive in technical applications.
Ethyl Acetate
Ethyl Acetate is a clear, colorless, volatile organic solvent with a characteristic sweet, fruity odor reminiscent of pear drops. It is an ester formed by the condensation of ethanol and acetic acid. Known for its excellent solvency, low toxicity, and rapid evaporation rate, Ethyl Acetate is widely used as a solvent in coatings, adhesives, inks, pharmaceuticals, and chemical synthesis.
