Description

Ethylene Carbonate-13C is a stable isotope-labeled analog of ethylene carbonate, where the carbon atoms are enriched with the 13C isotope. This compound is essential as a high-purity internal standard and tracer in advanced analytical chemistry, enabling precise quantitative analysis and metabolic pathway studies. It is primarily required by research institutions, pharmaceutical development labs, and manufacturers of electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries who require definitive material tracking and quantification.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Used in Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for the accurate quantification of ethylene carbonate and related compounds.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Serves as a crucial tracer in biochemical and pharmaceutical research to study metabolic processes and drug degradation pathways using isotope-ratio monitoring.
• Electrolyte Additive Research: Employed in the development and quality control of advanced lithium-ion battery electrolytes to study additive behavior and decomposition mechanisms.
• NMR Spectroscopy: Acts as a 13C-enriched standard for nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, aiding in structural elucidation and method development.
• Organic Synthesis Intermediate: Utilized as a labeled building block in the synthesis of more complex 13C-labeled compounds for research purposes.
• Polymer Science Studies: Applied in the research of polymerization processes and polymer degradation where carbon tracking is necessary.

Quality Control

Our Ethylene Carbonate-13C is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure isotopic and chemical purity for sensitive research applications. Each batch is characterized by advanced spectroscopic and chromatographic methods, including NMR for isotopic enrichment verification and HPLC for chemical purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic purity (atom% 13C), chemical assay, and impurity profile is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its hygroscopic nature, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a desiccator for long-term storage to prevent moisture absorption. Ideal storage temperature is between 2°C and 8°C.
