Application

This SRM is intended for calibrating the instruments and techniques used for ethanol determination.

Features and Benefits

  • Available with the certificate documenting NIST-certified mass fraction values for ethanol obtained through gravimetric solution preparation.
  • The certified values are metrologically traceable to the SI derived unit for mass fraction, expressed as percent.
  • The NIST certificate is provided with expiration certificate, storage, handling, use, and maintenance instructions.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. Ethanol is environmentally preferable green solvent and thus it aligns with "Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries". Click here for more information.
