Methanol - Chromatography & Reagent Applications

Methanol is a primary polar solvent widely used as a mobile?phase component in HPLC and LC-MS, especially for reversed?phase separations.

It dissolves a broad range of analytes and offers low UV cut?off, supporting UV, DAD, and MS detection without excessive baseline noise.

In synthesis labs, methanol acts as a reagent and solvent for esterifications, transesterifications, and quenching reactions.

High?purity grades reduce background in analytical assays, making it suitable for calibration standard preparation and instrument rinsing.
