Imidazole Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- 1H-Imidazole
Imidazole supplier for specialty chemical, epoxy, pharmaceutical and laboratory users in Malaysia. Also identified as 1H-imidazole and CAS 288-32-4, it is a white to off-white crystalline solid used as a synthesis building block, process reagent and curing component in selected formulations.
Commercial choices include general industrial material, epoxy formulation grade, pharmaceutical-intermediate grade and high-purity imidazole. Assay, moisture, physical form and related-substance limits are selected for the reaction or formulation rather than assumed to be identical across all uses.
Specialty manufacturers use imidazole as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals, agrochemical intermediates and other organic compounds. Epoxy formulators may use it as an accelerator or curing component in resins, adhesives, coatings and composites, while laboratories specify high-purity material for synthesis, buffer and biochemical work.
Send the required grade, assay and impurity limits, physical form, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Imidazole grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industrial-grade imidazole | white to off-white crystals, flakes or powder | — | General chemical synthesis and process use where the buyer specifies assay, moisture and impurity limits for the reaction. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Epoxy formulation grade imidazole | crystalline powder or flakes | — | Accelerator or curing component in selected epoxy resin, adhesive and coating systems that are formulated for imidazole chemistry. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Pharmaceutical-intermediate grade imidazole | white crystalline solid | — | Synthesis intermediate for pharmaceutical and specialty molecules that require tighter purity and application-specific impurity controls. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| High-purity imidazole | white crystalline powder | — | Laboratory, biochemical and specialised synthesis work where a more tightly controlled purity and impurity profile is specified. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Safety and handling
Keep the material sealed in a cool, dry place and protect it from moisture and incompatible materials. Control dust during handling and follow the safety information supplied for the quoted grade.
Common questions about Imidazole
Is 1H-imidazole the same as imidazole?
Yes. 1H-imidazole is a systematic identity term for the parent imidazole covered by this page. State imidazole and CAS 288-32-4 in the enquiry so the requirement is not confused with a substituted imidazole derivative.
Is imidazole the same as 2-methylimidazole or benzimidazole?
No. 2-methylimidazole and benzimidazole are separate compounds with different structures and specifications. A requirement for one of those derivatives should not be quoted as parent imidazole merely because the names share an imidazole term.
Which imidazole grade should a buyer request?
Industrial grades suit general synthesis, epoxy grades serve selected cure systems, and pharmaceutical-intermediate or high-purity grades are chosen when tighter assay and impurity limits matter. State the application and approval specification to guide selection.
How is imidazole used in epoxy resin systems?
Imidazole can act as an accelerator or curing component in selected epoxy formulations. Suitability and loading depend on the resin, cure schedule, desired latency and final performance, so the formulator should provide those details rather than request a generic dose.
What specifications should be provided for imidazole?
Include the required assay, appearance, moisture, melting range and any related-substance or trace-impurity limits. Add the physical form, quantity and delivery location for a complete quotation.
Can packing and product documents be requested?
Yes. List the preferred pack format and required product documents in the enquiry. Suitable packing and available documentation are confirmed for the selected grade with the quotation.
What details are needed for an imidazole price enquiry?
Send the grade, purity and impurity specification, form, intended use, quantity and delivery location. These details determine which imidazole grade should form the basis of the offer.
