General description

EMPLURA® is our low-cost alternative to high-purity qualities. With EMPLURA we offer a range of solvents for a plurality of basic applications in non-regulated industries and for less demanding applications, preparative laboratory work and cleaning purposes. EMPLURA solvents provide adequate specifications with the most important parameters.

Application


  • Noncontact In Situ Multidiagnostic NMR/Dielectric Spectroscopy: The study discusses the application of 1-Propanol in developing noncontact diagnostic techniques, beneficial for chemists and material scientists involved in analytical and diagnostic methodologies (Morais et al., 2024).
