Azide Detection

The ChemSee Azide Detection Tab allows for the rapid, color-based detection of azides in solution. It is useful in many applications including:

- Detecting Residual Azides in Pharmaceutical Preparations
- Detecting Azides in Recycled Solvents
- Detecting Azides in Industrial Wastewater

Product Description and Use - Azide Detectors

To test a sample for Azides, apply three to five droplets onto the detector port marked "Place Sample Here" and wait until the test end turns red. If Azides are present in the sample a dark brown or black band will form on the detector. Testing basic solutions with the AZD-P2 requires a simple pretreatment step during which the sample is added to a preparation pouch and mixed thoroughly. This mixture is then applied to the detector port as before.

Features:

Detects Azides in Concentrations under 50 ppm in Neutral Solutions and under 100 ppm in Basic Solutions
Includes Pretreatment Component for Testing Alkaline Mixtures
12 Month Shelf Life
Full Instructions provided with Each Detector

Product Description and Use - Azide Decontamination

To decontaminate*, add Solution A to the Azide-contaminated solution and mix thoroughly. Next, add Solution B to the mixture, mix thoroughly and let sit for 15 minutes. The solution can now be disposed of with normal wastewater, provided there are no other hazardous contaminants present. *The AZD-BDEC for basic solutions includes an additional pretreatment step which should be added before Solution A.
