Benedict Solution Material Kit

If you're looking for a solution to test for sugar, the Benedict Solution Material Kit may be just what you need. This kit contains three chemicals that you need to make one liter of fresh Benedict's Solution, along with mixing instructions. Benedict Solution must be prepared fresh and kept away from light, air, and heat if you need to keep it for a few weeks. The ingredients in dry form have a shelf life of one to two years if stored in a tightly closed packaging and cold temperature. Please note that this is a materials kit, so the beaker, test tube, and rack are not included.

Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonic Acid (LABSA), 96%

Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonic Acid, 96% active, is a highly versatile chemical used primarily in the production of household detergents and industrial cleaning products. It is a key ingredient in laundry powders, laundry liquids, dishwashing liquids, and other household cleaning solutions. LABSA also finds applications as a coupling agent and emulsifier in industrial processes, including agricultural herbicides and emulsion polymerization. Recognized for its efficiency and reliability, is classified as a hazardous material under UN# 2586, Hazard Class 8 (Corrosive), PGIII, and requires appropriate handling and storage. Its widespread use in both domestic and industrial sectors underscores its importance in manufacturing high-performance cleaning and emulsifying products.

Product Specifications

Pine Oil 85

Pine Oil 85 is a 100% pure essential oil containing 85% or more cyclic terpene alcohols. Known for its familiar pine scent, it offers strong sterilizing effects, superior deodorization, and excellent wetness, clearance, and penetration properties. This versatile oil is widely used in disinfectants, detergents, germicides, polishing agents, anti-rust applications, painting solvents, and as a mineral flotation agent. Natural and highly concentrated, it must be handled with care and is for manufacturing use only.

Product Specifications

Applications and Benefits:

• Used as a disinfectant and germicide for industrial applications.
• Effective as a detergent and polishing agent.
• Acts as an anti-rust agent for maintenance and preservation.
• Serves as a painting solvent and mineral flotation agent.
• Provides a strong deodorizing and cleaning effect.

Caution:

Keep out of reach of children. Natural essential oils are highly concentrated and should be used with care. Read all labels and SDS sheets. For manufacturing use only.

Sodium Perborate Tetrahydrate, Min 96%

Sodium Perborate Tetrahydrate (NaBO₃·4H₂O), with a minimum purity of 96%, is a technical-grade compound primarily used as a stable source of active oxygen. It serves a range of applications, including developing vat dyes, textile bleaching, and in the formulation of synthetic detergents and laundry products. Compared to more aggressive bleach alternatives like sodium hypochlorite, Sodium Perborate is less harsh on fabrics and dyes, making it ideal for cleaning and laundry bleaches. It is also used in dental compositions, electroplating, and as a laboratory reagent. The product is available as a white powder, sometimes forming clumps, and is moderately toxic by ingestion. Due to its strong oxidizing properties, it poses a fire risk when in contact with organic materials. Sodium Perborate Tetrahydrate is available for ground shipping via UPS or FedEx and cannot be shipped by air or priority services.

Key Features

• Stable source of active oxygen for cleaning and bleaching
• Less aggressive than sodium hypochlorite and other chlorine-based bleaches
• Used in textile bleaching, laundry detergents, and vat dye development
• Ideal for dental compositions and electroplating
• Moderately toxic by ingestion; strong oxidizing agent
• White powder, may form clumps

Product Specifications

Trisodium Phosphate (TSP), Technical

Trisodium Phosphate (TSP), also known as Sodium Phosphate Tribasic, is a white, crystalline, granular or powdered compound with the formula Na₃PO₄·12H₂O·1/4 NaOH. It is primarily used as a heavy-duty cleaner, degreaser, and industrial additive for applications such as boiler water compounds, detergents, and metal cleaning. TSP is effective for cleaning walls, degreasing surfaces, and removing hydrocarbon residues. It can be combined with household chlorine bleach for mildew removal and is used in ceramics to lower glaze flow points. Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard with a max use of 41 mg/L.

Product Specifications

Applications and Benefits:

• Heavy-duty cleaner for walls, driveways, and industrial equipment
• Degreases and deglosses surfaces before painting
• Used in detergents, metal cleaning, and textiles
• Combines with bleach for effective mildew removal
• Functions as a flux for brazing copper in medical-grade plumbing
• Lowers flow points of glazes in ceramic production

Handling and Storage:

• Store in a cool, dry place
• Keep containers tightly closed to prevent moisture exposure
• Use protective equipment when handling to avoid skin or eye contact

Caution:

Not for food use. Handle with care as it is a strong alkaline compound. Avoid inhalation of dust. Consult SDS for detailed safety information.
