Application
- Copolymerization of butadiene and styrene under the influence of n-butyllithium: This study explores the copolymerization process using n-butyllithium as a catalyst, which is significant for the development of new synthetic rubber materials (V Bronskaya et al., 2023).
- Modifiers of n-Butyllithium in the Synthesis of Polybutadiene and Styrene-Butadiene Rubbers: Explores the use of n-butyllithium with different modifiers in the synthesis of industrial rubbers, important for understanding the control of polymer properties (VS Glukhovskoi et al., 2014).
- Aggregation and Solvation of n-Butyllithium: Examines the aggregation behavior and solvation properties of n-butyllithium in various solvents, providing insights into its chemical interactions essential for organic synthesis (O Tai et al., 2017).
Packaging
The Kilo-Lab® cylinders are only available in the US. The cylinder types will vary according to country.
The 25 mL Sure/Seal™ bottle is recommended as a single-use bottle. Repeated punctures will likely result in decreased performance of product.

Is the default container for an individual 25 mL bottle from 186171-4X25ML a sure seal bottle? Or does the the sure seal bottle need to be specially requested? i.e. does ordering 186171-4X25ML mean you will get your four bottles with sure-seal septa?

How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?
1 answer-
If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
