Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Solvent shopping experience:
1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Solvent offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Solvent at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.
2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about
3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Solvent? Wrong! If the Solvent is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.
4. Questions - Got a question about Solvent then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....
5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Solvent? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Solvent and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.
6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Solvent wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.
7. Feedback - happy with your Solvent then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.
8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Solvent site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site
9. Contact - got a question about Solvent, or want to leave a comment then check out the sites contact page. Reputable companies have them and respond.
10. Payment - ready to pay for your Solvent, then use your credit card or PayPal! Be aware of companies that don't accept them, there may be genuine reasons but given the huge amount of choice you have when buying online there is no reason at all not to buy via credit card or PayPal.
A
solvent is a liquid that dissolves a solid, liquid, or gaseous solute, resulting in a
solution. The most common solvent in everyday life is
water. Most other commonly-used solvents are organic chemistry (
carbon-containing) chemicals. These are called
organic solvents. Solvents usually have a low boiling point and evaporate easily or can be removed by
distillation, thereby leaving the dissolved substance behind. Solvents should therefore not
chemical reaction with the dissolved compounds — they have to be inert. Solvents can also be used to
solvent extraction soluble compounds from a mixture, the most common example is the brewing of coffee or
tea with hot water. Solvents are usually clear and colorless liquids and many have a characteristic
odor. The
concentration of a solution is the amount of compound that is dissolved in a certain volume of solvent. The
solubility is the maximal amount of compound that is soluble in a certain volume of solvent at a specified temperature.
Common uses for organic solvents are in dry cleaning (e.g. tetrachloroethylene), as
paint thinners (e.g. toluene,
turpentine), as nail polish removers and glue solvents (acetone,
methyl acetate,
ethyl acetate), in spot removers (e.g.
hexane, petrol ether), in
detergents (citrus
terpenes), in
perfumes (
ethanol), and in Chemical synthesis. The use of Inorganic nonaqueous solvent (other than water) is typically limited to research chemistry and some technological processes.
Polarity, solubility, and miscibility
Solvents and solutes can be broadly classified into
polar (Hydrophilicity) and
non-polar (lipophilic). The polarity can be measured as the dielectric constant or the dipole moment of a compound. The polarity of a solvent determines what type of
Chemical compound it is able to dissolve and with what other solvents or liquid compounds it is miscible. As a rule of thumb, polar solvents dissolve polar compounds best and non-polar solvents dissolve non-polar compounds best: "like dissolves like". Strongly polar compounds like Inorganic chemistry
salts (e.g. table salt) or sugars (e.g. sucrose) dissolve only in very polar solvents like water, while strongly non-polar compounds like oils or
waxes dissolve only in very non-polar organic solvents like hexane. Similarly, water and hexane (or
vinegar and vegetable oil) are not
miscible with each other and will quickly separate into two layers even afterbeing shaken well.
Protic and aprotic solvents
Polar solvents can be further subdivided into polar protic solvents and polar
aprotic solvents. A polar protic solvent is one that contains an O-H or N-H bond. A polar aprotic solvent is one that does not contain an O-H or N-H bond. Water (H-O-H), ethanol (CH3-CH2-OH), or acetic acid (CH3-C(=O)OH) are representative polar protic solvents. A polar aprotic solvent is acetone (CH3-C(=O)-CH3). In
chemical reactions the use of polar protic solvents favors the SN1 reaction
reaction mechanism, while polar aprotic solvents favor the SN2 reaction reaction mechanism.
Boiling point
Another important property of solvents is boiling point. This also determines the speed of evaporation. Small amounts of low-boiling solvents like diethyl ether, dichloromethane, or acetone will evaporate in seconds at room temperature, while high-boiling solvents like water or
dimethyl sulfoxide need higher temperatures, an air flow, or the application of vacuum for fast evaporation.
Density
Most organic solvents have a lower density than water, which means they are lighter and will form a separate layer on top of water. An important exception: many halogenated solvents like dichloromethane or chloroform will sink to the bottom of a container, leaving water as the top layer. This is important to remember when
partition coefficient compounds between solvents and water in a separatory funnel during chemical syntheses.
Chemical interactions
A solvent will create various weak chemical interactions with the solute to solubilize the solute. The most usual of these interactions are the relatively weak
Van der Waals forces (induced dipole interactions), the stronger dipole-dipole interactions, and even the strongest interaction,
hydrogen bonds (interaction between O-H or N-H hydrogens with adjacent O or N atoms).
Health and Safety
Fire
Most organic solvents are flammable or highly flammable, depending on their volatility. Exceptions are some chlorinated solvents like
dichloromethane and chloroform. Mixtures of solvent vapors and air can
explosion. Solvent vapors are heavier than air, they will sink to the bottom and can travel large distances nearly undiluted. Solvent vapors can also be found in supposedly empty drums and cans, posing a
flash fire hazard; hence empty containers of volatile solvents should be stored open and upside down.
Both
diethyl ether and
carbon disulphide have exceptionally low
autoignition temperatures which increase greatly the fire risk associated with these solvents. The autoignition temperature of carbon disulphide is below 100°C (212°F), so as a result objects such as steam pipes,
light bulbs,
hotplates and recently extinguished
bunsen burners are able to ignite its vapours.
Peroxide formation
Ethers like diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran (THF) can form highly explosive
organic peroxides upon exposure to oxygen and light, THF is normally more able to form such peroxides than diethyl ether. One of the most susceptible solvents is
diisopropyl ether.
The heteroatom (
oxygen) stabilizes the formation of a free radical which is formed by the abstraction of a hydrogen atom by another free radical. The carbon centred free radical thus formed is able to react with an oxygen molecule to form a peroxide compound. A range of tests can be used to detect the presence of a peroxide in an ether, one is to use a combination of iron sulphate and
potassium thiocyanate. The peroxide is able to oxidize the ferrous ion to a
ferric ion which then form a deep red
coordination complex with the thiocyanate. In extreme cases the peroxides can form
crystalline solids within the vessel of the ether.
Unless the desiccant used can destroy the peroxides, they will concentrate during distillation due to their higher
boiling point. When sufficient peroxides have formed, they can form a crystalline and shock sensitive solid which precipitates. When this solid is formed at the mouth of the bottle, turning the cap may provide sufficient energy for the peroxide to detonate. Peroxide formation is not a significant problem when solvents are used up quickly; they are more of a problem for laboratories which take years to finish a single bottle. Ethers have to be stored in the dark in closed canisters in the presence of stabilizers like
butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) or over
sodium hydroxide.
Peroxides may be removed by washing with acidic ferrous sulphate, filtering through
alumina, or
distillation from
sodium/benzophenone. Alumina does not destroy the peroxides; it merely traps them. The advantage of using sodium/benzophenone is that
moisture and
oxygen is removed as well.
Health effects
Many solvents can lead to a sudden loss of consciousness if inhalation in large amounts. Solvents like diethyl ether and
chloroform have been used in medicine as anesthetics, sedatives, and hypnotics for a long time.
Ethanol is a widely used and abused psychoactive drug. Diethyl ether, chloroform, and many other solvents (e.g. from
gasoline or glues) are used recreationally in Volatile substance abuse, often with harmful long term health effects like neurotoxicity or
cancer.
Methanol can cause internal damage to the eyes, including permanent blindness.
It is interesting to note that ethanol has a synergistic effect when taken in combination with many solvents. For instance a combination of
toluene/benzene and ethanol causes greater nausea/vomiting than either substance alone. Many chemists make a point of not drinking
beer/
wine/other alcoholic drinks if they know that they have been exposed to an aromatic solvent.
Environmental contamination
A major pathway to induce health effects arises from spills or leaks of solvents that reach the underlying soil. Since solvents readily migrate substantial distances, the creation of widespread soil contamination is not uncommon; there may be about 5000 sites worldwide that have major subsurface solvent contamination; this is particularly a health risk if
aquifers are affected.
Chronic health effects
Some solvents including chloroform and
benzene (an ingredient of gasoline) are carcinogenic. Many others can damage internal organs like the
liver, the
kidneys, or the
brain.
General precautions
- Avoiding being exposed to solvent vapors by working in a fume hood, or with local exhaust ventilation (LEV), or in a well ventilated area
- Keeping the storage containers tightly closed
- Never using open flames near flammable solvents, use electrical heating instead
- Never flush flammable solvents down the drain, read safety data sheets for proper disposal information
- Avoiding the inhalation of solvent vapors
- Avoiding contact of the solvent with the skin — many solvents are easily absorbed through the skin. They also tend to dry the skin and may cause sores and wounds.
