1. The high purity of our ACETONITRILE HPLC Gradient grade, which is ≥99.9%, minimizes the effect of trace contaminants on chemical reactions and product quality.
2. The low water content of our anhydrous acetonitrile, ≤0.05%, minimizes side reactions and maximizes product yield and manufacturing consistency. For more stringent specification needs we also have higher grades.
3. Our HPLC acetonitrile has evaporation residue controlled to ≤1 ppm, suitable for high-precision experimental analysis.
For pharmaceutical, pesticide, and electronic chemical companies, acetonitrile is not only a solvent but also directly affects reaction efficiency and product quality. Lack of sufficient acetonitrile purity as well as excessively high moisture content and inconsistent impurity contents can readily cause a slow down in the kinetics of a chemical reaction, an increase in by-product amount besides even being a factor in lowering the purity of end product. These changes result in higher expenses for purification processes and also in greater loses for the production. Our acetonitrile products conform to HG/T 2601-2019 standards, purity is not less than 99.9%, and water content is no more than 0.05%. At the same time, we pay strict attention not only to the acidity, non-volatile components and major impurities, but also the corresponding contents. Stable product quality is important for a lot of aspects like increasing reaction efficiency, decreasing side reactions, minimizing the efforts required by subsequent purification steps and finally getting batches that are consistent with each other in the properties and qualities.

Upstream Laboratories and Technical Support
InfinityLab Acetonitrile for HPLC is widely used in pharmaceutical intermediates, organic synthesis, electronic chemicals, and laboratory analysis, where high standards are required for product purity, moisture content, and trace impurities. We have set up a thorough quality testing system based on collaborating with upstream cooperative production bases and supported by CNAS-accredited laboratories in order to fulfill customer requirement for pure acetonitrile. Much of our facility is outfitted with highly advanced analytical tools exceeding thirty in total. We use gas chromatographs (GC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), etc. We carry out a thorough and multi-level quality analysis of acetonitrile, from physical chemical parameters - such as moisture content, water activity, pH value, volatile components, and organoleptic properties - up to microscopic identification, histology and ultrastructural study (if applicable). Thus we guarantee the quality of the products in accordance with HG/T 2601-2019. The batches are inspected twice: first at the factory, then in outbound re-inspection. We deliver full COA, MSDS, and quality traceability documentation with every order. Equipped with over 300 sets of process testing facilities and an online testing portal, we can also conduct impurity screening, process verification, and application support service, offering our pharmaceutical, electronics, and fine chemical partners with a more dependable technical expertise.

Client Application
For a long time, a pharmaceutical intermediate manufacturer was using acetonitrile as a solvent for organic synthesis of a product. Previously, due to significant fluctuations in moisture and impurities in products from different suppliers, some reaction times were prolonged, and product purification costs increased. After adopting our acetonitrile, with its stable quality of ≥99.9% purity and ≤0.05% moisture, the client's raw material batch consistency has significantly improved, reaction preparation time has been shortened by approximately 30%, and the frequency of incoming material re-inspection has decreased by approximately 40%, effectively reducing process adjustment and quality control costs. Simultaneously, we provide complete testing reports and batch traceability data to help the client successfully pass internal quality audits and supplier evaluations.
