Application

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is a solution composed of ethanol (ethyl alcohol) in water, with a nominal mass fraction of 6%. It is primarily intended for the calibration of instruments and techniques used in the determination of ethanol.

Features and Benefits

  • The certified mass fraction value is derived from results obtained through the gravimetric preparation of the solution and analytical data determined via gas chromatography.
  • Maintenance and expiration of SRM certification, instructions for handling, storage, and use are provided on NIST certificate.

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.

General description

Each unit of SRM 2898a contains five 10-milliliter ampoules, with each ampoule containing ~ 10 mL of solution. For more information, please refer to the SDS and COA.
