Use of xylene in laboratory
Xylene (CAS: 1330-20-7) is primarily used in laboratories as an organic solvent and chemical reagent, with specific applications including:
Tissue clearing and dewaxing
Xylene is used in hospital pathology departments for clearing and dewaxing tissue sections, replacing traditional paraffin.
Solvent and cleaning agent
- Cleans precision instruments (e.g., optical microscopes, electronic components) to remove grease and impurities.
- Used for dissolving photoresists and cleaning silicon components.
Chemical Synthesis Aid
- Serves as a solvent in organic reactions for synthesizing pharmaceuticals, dyes, pesticides, and other compounds.
- Used to determine the moisture content in organic compounds.
Mixture Separation
In laboratories, Xylene, which has different isomers (o-, m-, p-xylene), can be separated and purified based on their distinct physical properties (e.g., boiling points, melting points).
