OverviewAccurate analytic results in UV/VIS and infrared spectroscopy depend on the use of very pure solvents for sample preparation. The Uvasol®
solvents range has been specially designed for spectroscopy and other applications requiring solvents of the highest spectral purity. The refinement process allows a
greater degree of security in applications and avoids misinterpretation of analytical results caused by traces of UV, IR and fluorescence
contamination. Uvasol® solvents offer best UV transmittance. In all specifications the minimum transmittance for 5 typical
wavelengths are identified.
