Overview

Effect of hydrogen peroxide concentrations on the degradation of hexachloroethane in the absence and the presence of tetrachloroethene by Fenton′s reagent has been investigated

Hexachloroethane was used as catalyst in preparation of chlorosilanes from hydrosilanes. It was used to investigate the transformation of hexachloroethane in natural waters. It was used as reagent during polycondensation reaction of p-aminobenzoic acid.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Reagent Grade mean?

Reagent Grade is a defined analytical purity tier suitable for general analytical and reagent applications. It specifies a minimum assay percentage, controlled limits on common impurities (water, heavy metals, residue on ignition), and lot-to-lot consistency. Reagent Grade is one of several purity tiers — choose based on the sensitivity and regulatory requirements of your method.
