Paraffin Liquid Light (Pure) – LR Grade, 2.5 Litres

Paraffin Liquid Light Pure is a high quality Laboratory Reagent (LR) grade mineral oil supplied in a larger 2.5 litre container, making it ideal for routine use in educational science laboratories. It is a clear, colourless liquid with low viscosity and excellent stability, commonly used for a wide range of school chemistry and physics demonstrations.

This product has a CAS Number of 8012‑95‑1 and no UN number assigned (UN: NR). Liquid paraffin is chemically inert, insoluble in water, and non‑volatile under classroom conditions, making it particularly suitable for safe, supervised practical work in schools.

Supplied clearly labelled and ready for storage in school prep rooms, this bulk size supports repeated lessons and demonstrations throughout the academic year.
