Detailed information about the product
Product Overview
1-Butane Sulphonic Acid Sodium Salt Anhydrous 99% AR/HPLC (CAS No. 2386-54-1) is anhydrous sodium butane-1-sulfonate, an alkali-metal alkylsulfonate containing a four-carbon hydrophobic chain and a permanently anionic sulfonate group. In reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography, the sulfonate functions as a counterion for positively charged analytes and modifies their effective interaction with the stationary phase, thereby influencing retention, selectivity and peak behaviour. The anhydrous identity is important when calculating reagent quantities for molar mobile-phase preparation.
The AR/HPLC grade is intended for analytical reagent preparation and use as an anionic ion-pairing additive in high-performance liquid chromatography. Its grade territory requires suitability for mobile-phase formulation with controlled chromatographic background and reagent cleanliness.

Storage Conditions
Store in a tightly closed container under dry conditions and protect from moisture and analytical contamination. Minimise exposure to humid air to preserve the anhydrous form and reduce variability during gravimetric preparation of chromatographic mobile phases.
