Propionaldehyde (Propanal) – LR Grade, 100ml (UN Approved)

Propionaldehyde, also known as Propanal, is a simple aliphatic aldehyde supplied in a 100ml UN‑approved container. Manufactured to Laboratory Reagent (LR) grade, it is intended for controlled use in educational chemistry laboratories, particularly within advanced organic chemistry teaching.

The product is identified by CAS Number: 123‑38‑6 and UN Number: 1275. Propionaldehyde is a volatile and flammable liquid and must be handled strictly in accordance with laboratory safety procedures and COSHH risk assessments. Its well‑defined chemical behaviour makes it a useful reagent for studying aldehydes and their reactions.

Please note: this chemical is supplied exclusively to educational establishments. Customers must be logged in with an approved school or institutional account for the Add To Basket option to appear. Orders will be shipped only to school addresses in line with safety and regulatory requirements.

Due to courier and safety regulations, chemical products cannot be returned. This does not affect statutory rights.
