Search by CAS number: identify your molecule precisely

 

The CAS number is a unique identifier for each chemical substance. It is assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), a division of the American Chemical Society. The CAS number allows substances to be distinguished according to their degree of hydration, their isomers, enantiomers or degree of polymerisation, where applicable. This guarantees a precise search and unique identification of the molecule you are looking for.

 

Search by molecule name: alternative to CAS number

 

If you do not have the CAS number or if the search does not return satisfactory results, you can use the chemical name of the molecule. It is recommended that you use the international nomenclature to obtain more accurate results, although the common name can also be used.

 

Refine your search with filters

 

Once you have completed your search, several filters will appear on the left-hand side of the page. By selecting the criteria that match your needs, you can refine your selection of chemical products. Here are the main filters:

 1. CAS number
When you search by name or keyword, CAS numbers associated with your search will be suggested. Simply select the correct CAS number to confirm the exact molecule.

 

2. Grade and Application

There are different grades or qualities with different specifications for different applications. Here are the main grades available and their specific uses:

  • Trace analysis: reagent for analysing trace elements (iron, zinc, manganese, chromium, etc.).
  • Pesticide analysis: reagent for pesticide analysis.
  • For analysis: reagent for analytical use (purity higher than technical grade). Can also be used for synthesis or as a technical product.
  • Synthesis - anhydrous with septum: solvent with very low water content, supplied in stoppered bottle with septum for needle sampling.
  • Synthesis: reagent dedicated to organic synthesis (purity below analysis grade). Can also be used as a technical grade product.
  • Spectroscopic analysis: reagent for spectroscopic analysis.
  • Electronic use: reagent for use in the electronics industry (low particle content).
  • Pharma grade: reagent meeting standards for use in the pharmaceutical industry for analysis (cannot be used in production).
  • General use, technical grade: reagent for routine laboratory use, reasonably pure.
  • UHPLC-MS: reagent for use in ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer (UHPLC-MS).
  • LC-MS: reagent for use in liquid chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer (LC-MS).
  • Headspace chromatography: solvent for headspace gas chromatography technique
  • ICP-MS standard: standard reagent for ICP inductively coupled plasma spectrometer coupled to a mass spectrometer.
  • Standard ICP: standard reagent for ICP inductively coupled plasma spectrometer.
  • Standard AAS: standard reagent for atomic absorption spectrometer AAS.
  • Standard ion chromatography: standard reagent for IC ion chromatography.
  • pH-metry: reagent for use in pH-metry.
  • Conductimetry: reagent for use in conductimetry.
  • Histology: reagent validated for use in histology.
  • HPLC: Reagent for high-pressure liquid chromatography.
  • Chromatography: Reagent for chromatographic analysis.
  • GC-MS: Reagent for gas chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer.
  • Microscopy: Reagent dedicated to microscopy analysis.

 

3. Volume and Concentration

Finalise your search by specifying additional information, such as volume, concentration, product brand and container material.
