Details

Dimethylformamide 99.8% Lab Grade

Dimethylformamide (IUPAC name N,N-dimethylfomamide) is structurally the same as formamide but with two methyl groups replacing the two hydrogens. It is a clear and odorless liquid, with widespread use as a solvent.

DMF is used in the production of acrylic fibers and plastics . It is also used as a solvent in peptide coupling for pharmaceuticals, in the development and production of pesticides, and in the manufacture of adhesives, synthetic leathers, fibers, films, and surface coatings.

Lab Grade is also known as Laboratory Reagent (LR) and Chemically Pure (CP). Lab grade chemicals possess reasonable purity but do not comply with any official standards for quality or purity. .

Common Uses and Applications

Peptide-coupling in pharmaceuticals

Solid-phase peptide synthesis

Fibers and synthetic leathers

Competitive pricing and well-stocked US-based inventory.
