Product Summary
The Multi-element Mixed Standard Solution is an indispensable reference material for all laboratories utilizing Ion Chromatography (IC). This standardized solution contains precise, certified concentrations of multiple target ions (either anions or cations) in a single bottle.
Its primary purpose is to dramatically simplify and expedite the calibration process for IC instruments. By injecting a single mixed standard, analysts can simultaneously establish the retention times and detector response factors for all component ions, ensuring the accurate quantitative analysis of unknown samples across diverse fields like environmental testing, chemical processing, and quality control.
Primary Applications
Analytical Chemistry & Quality Control:
IC Calibration: Used to generate precise multi-point calibration curves, which are essential for quantifying unknown ion concentrations in environmental water, industrial effluents, and chemical feedstock.
Method Validation: Crucial for validating IC methods, performing system suitability tests, and verifying detector linearity and column performance.
Environmental Monitoring:
Water Analysis: Essential for analyzing regulated ions in drinking water, groundwater, and wastewater (e.g., chloride, nitrate, sulfate levels).
New Energy Research:
Electrolyte Analysis: Used to quantify ionic species and potential contaminants in battery electrolytes, ensuring the quality and stability of the system.
Food and Beverage Testing:
Nutrient and Additive Quantification: Used to measure inorganic components, such as mineral content or food additives, in consumer products.
Ordering and Traceability
Certified Components: The Certificate of Analysis (CoA) provided with every bottle guarantees the certified concentration of each component ion and confirms traceability to national/international standards.
Custom Blends: We offer custom-blended solutions tailored to your specific regulatory or research requirements, allowing you to specify the exact ions and concentrations needed for your application.
Stability: Solutions are guaranteed stable until the expiry date when stored unopened under the recommended conditions.
