03 / APPLICATIONS

Applications

01

NMR reference standardCommon zero-ppm reference for ¹H, ¹³C and ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopy.

02

Analysis and calibrationUsed in spectral analysis and instrument calibration.

03

Silicon precursor researchUsed as a volatile silicon-containing precursor in selected deposition, plasma and materials studies.

04 / HANDLING

Packaging, storage and transport

Keep the handling system dry and preferably under nitrogen. Avoid inhalation and skin/eye contact. Do not flush spills directly with water; follow the SDS and use a compatible inert absorbent.

1

Typical packagingAvailable in sample packs, drums or IBCs depending on product compatibility and order quantity.

2

Sealing requirementsUse a clean, dry and tightly sealed compatible container; nitrogen protection is recommended for moisture-sensitive grades.

3

Storage conditionsStore in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place away from moisture, heat, ignition sources and incompatible materials.

4

Transport and shelf lifeTransport classification and shelf life depend on the exact grade and must follow the latest SDS and confirmed order specification.

Actual packaging, shelf life and dangerous-goods classification must follow the exact grade, order and latest SDS.
