Technical Solvents. Technical Solvents
 
Often important for the modern laboratory is a source of high quality technicla solvents. ECP recognise this and are able to supply high quality technical solvents for the laboratory and as a first step in high purity extraction and refinement of biological and organic compounds. From our specially sourced extraction grade hexane with aromatics/benzene of less than 0.02%, through to absolute ethanol. See our range below and then check the price and availability by entering the code into our search facility.
