Re: dichlorobenzene

Hi Kyunghoae --


For good reason.  This is a suspected carcinogen and we have worked hard to eliminate it from the standard chemicals in the lab.  The industry has many greener/safer alternatives now.  It you plan to use dichlorobenzene at SNF, you must submit a SpecMat request.  In order to use it, your request would have to demonstrate that these alternative do not work for your application and that its use would be absolutely restricted.

Dear lab members

 

Does anybody know where I can purchase dichlorobenzene?

I checked with Biostore, they don’t deal with it.

Thank you.
